Born in B.C. and raised in Yarmouth, N.S. Started playing guitar at 19, and drums at 15. 110% devoted to music! Big into the thrash/melodic metal genres, but open to almost all music. Lots of drive. Appreciate new artists as well. Currently working on new riffs and songs. Just recently got into making hip-hop tracks, but mainly a metal head to the core.
If there is one individual within the hip-hop game who truly understands the concept of comic relief, that man is E-Bone. From pimp tales to gang fables to the truth about the streets of Yarmouth, E-Bone will keep you entertained in a great mood with his music.
Naztee & Jon-Boy have resurrected Hypocritia. Hallelujah! Hypocritia, to put it mildly, likes to make very different music. If it's Hip-Hop you're after, we've got you covered. Rock ya say? Ditto! And what about some funky retro God-only-knows-what? You're damn right, we've got that too! Comedic, original, experimental, genre-bashing music. That's what Hypocritia represents.
