Known for his complex and introspective lyrics, unique vocal style, and freestyle rapping, he was one of hip hop’s most original and influential figures. Born in 1981, Eyedea began rapping at a young age and quickly established himself in the local freestyle scene. He won numerous battles and competitions, including Blaze Battle, which showcased him to a national audience. This led to him getting offered a deal with Bad Boy records which he turned down to stay with home town label Rhymesayers Entertainment, a label known for its underground hip-hop and innovation. Eyedea released several acclaimed albums, including "First Born" (2001), "The Many Faces of Oliver Hart" (2002), "E&A" (2004) & rock album as Carbon Carousel titled "The Sum of all Things..." (2006). His music was characterized by its dense wordplay, social commentary, and exploration of personal struggles. Eyedea was a prolific artist, releasing music at a rapid pace and collaborating with a wide range of artists. He was known for his energetic live performances, where he would often freestyle for hours. He was also a passionate advocate for independent hip-hop and a vocal critic of mainstream music. Eyedea's career was cut short by his death in 2010 at the age of 28. He left behind a legacy of innovative and thought-provoking music that continues to inspire fans and artists alike. Eyedea was a true original, a poet and a rapper who pushed the boundaries of hip-hop and left an indelible mark on the genre. His music is a gift that will continue to be enjoyed for years to come.
