E.Cov

E. Cov was born in Baltimore, Maryland. At nine days old, he and his mother headed to Los Angeles, CA. Two years later, they relocated to Atlanta, GA. While in Atlanta, Eric heard Atlanta’s Native Hip Hop Artist Ludacris on the radio and for the first time was truly inspired by music. During this time, he was also inspired by Nas, Mos Def, Notorious BIG, Slick Rick, and Lupe Fiasco. This inspiration planted a seed in Eric that was sure to grow.
When Eric was nine years old he spent a year in his parent’s hometown of Chester, Pennsylvania. It was during this time in Chester, that Eric became totally aware of his roots and his East Coast/Down South Connection. This Bi-Coastal experience would ultimately play a role in Eric being so well-rounded and musically inclined. Eric would continue throughout the years to visit his family on the East Coast and Down South, claiming his stake to those roots.
At age ten, Eric and his family moved back to Los Angeles, CA. During these years, inspired by Lil Wayne, Eric began to express and explore his love for music and performing. Eric, his brother and friends would perform for hours at his home while his parents were the audience as well as the recorder.
In 2006 Eric witnessed his father develop an Independent Record Label, FLAWLE$$ ENTERTAINMENT, INC. During this time he became familiar with the hard work and dedication behind the scenes. He watched his father manage an artist by the name of Ill Knob from KGB (one of Wu Tang Clans first hip hop groups). Eric became Ill Knob’s biggest fan and Ill Knob became Eric’s biggest influence and true inspiration. Also during this time Eric learned that he had relatives in the Industry such as Oli “Power” Grant (mogul actor and co-founder of legendary hip hop group Wu Tang Clan). With Eric surrounded by so many musical influences in his young life, it’s no surprise that music would be his destiny.
After graduating High School In 2009, he was accepted to Arizona State University. After a year of college, Eric returned home to Los Angeles, where he was ready to express his extreme love and passion for music. With the support of his father, he built a very sufficient home recording studio. He and his father spent countless nights in the studio recording music. Thus, through this father/son quest, E.Cov was born.
Today he is inspired by artist such as Mann, Casey Veggies, Kanye West, Drake & Wiz Khalifa. E.Cov is on a non-stop grind in pursuit of his career in music. He has countless opportunities ahead of him, which will most certainly play a major role in jumpstarting a successful and lucrative career. He is dedicated, motivated and focused on making his dream a reality. He is without a doubt a young, self-motivated and determined Hip Hop artist. He is E.Cov!!!
