"...I like this record a lot.... He's got some pretty good original production, and some good taste in beats to freestyle over (there's 3 tracks over Kanye West beats from 2002, and I always loved Kanye's shit from back then), and he flows his ass off on the last song, "AHunnitBarsOffMyChest."

"If you are into the culture, substance, flows, beats, word play and that ever important “rewind factor” then support this artist! We cosign this material as fresh..." - HipHopLead.com
"This one cuts right to the chase with the title, “I Need A Manager”. The mixtape is showing a growth in B...
B.Eveready spews major jewels on “The Rebel vs. The Hustler”. If you never heard of B.Eveready before this is the record you are gonna want to check out to understand this artists dynamics. All his key elements are there. B bends his comfortable flow on another smooth sampled beat while making that ride out music he crafts so well." - HipHopLead.com
HipHopLead.com- It’s been almost a year since you dropped “A Cold Summer’s Day” EP & “#INeedAManager” project. They both got great reviews and definatley helped elevate your brand. How have you evolved as an artist since releasing those?
B.Eveready- I think I’m more confident in my artistic choices. Before those 2 projects, I was real concerned about how people would react to my music, would they like it? How do I stack up to your favorite emcees? Now, I know that other folks hear what I hear when I make music. My challenge is getting it out there to as many people as I can. - HIpHopLead.com

Bio
B.Eveready's first EP was entitled Broken Watch, because if these rappers knew what time it was, they wouldn't be making the music they do. Or maybe his watch is just broken. Born and bred in Boston, now residing in Baltimore, B draws inspiration from wide-ranging influences, from Hip-Hop greats like Nas and B.I.G., to underground torchbearers like Gangstarr, the Perceptionists and BlackStar; from soul legends like James Brown and Marvin Gaye, to rock icons like Jimi Hendrix and Kurt Cobain, and everything in between. In the past, B was half of the Hip-Hop duo, Unknown Prose. In 2004, Unknown Prose's critically acclaimed, locally recognized debut album, "Knowteworthy", was released, selling over 3,000 copies. UP subsequently performed in many venues on the East Coast, opening for national acts such as Talib Kweli and Jin the MC, and more regional acts such as Little Egypt, RXC, and Soul Purpose. Now as a solo artist, B has recorded or performed with Cappadonna (of the Wu-Tang Clan), The Last Poets, Skyzoo, Torae, Red Cafe, Emilio Rojas, Chen Lo & The Lo Frequency (U.S. State Dept. world music emissaries), Chaundon, Daru Jones (Drummer for Jack White & The Stripes), Comp (formerly of Def Jam), Sean-Toure (Fat Beats), Gene Stovall, Huli Shallone, Scholarman, and more. The tracks from his "C.P.T." EP/Mixtape, have been downloaded over 10,000 times, and The "Guns & Butta" EP/Mixtape, "A Cold Summer's Day" EP and compilation album "#INeedAManager", have all been well received by critics and fans alike. B is now focused on dropping his 2 new projects,"#GrindSeason" EP & "The Grind Is Beautiful" album. Both are poised to serve notice that B is a member of the upper echelon of MC's in the game today.
Welcolme to the future. What time is it? Check out a live show and reset your watch.
