Bio
One of Boston's best kept secrets, E.O.T. is a Hip-Hop duo coming out of Boston's Dorchester neighborhood. A yin and yang of righteous anger converted to audio, providing narrative to life in the Dot. A true Hip-Hop sound crafted from elements of funk, jazz, gospel, trap and rock, an original Boston sound from true Boston natives.
There's your favorite rappers favorite rapper and then there's Metaphor, the rapper your favorite rapper wants to sign.
A razor sharp writer with quick and an even more rapid delivery, with no sugarcoating and no holds barred. Listen and you'll soon realize the Truth isn't pretty but necessary. With influences such as Jay Z, TI, and Rakim, he exhibits supreme technical ability through versatile subject matter with a creative delivery and blunt slang. If there's one thing Metaphor wants you know, everything written are facts, "It comes from a real place."
Then, there's theBOLDone; an insightful rapper and eclectic producer. He weaves together narrative to life in the Dot (Dorchester) and what he considers "theme music" to contribute to the gritty sound EOT is known for. As a rapper, theBOLDone likes to tackle multi-syllabic flows and use abstract ideas to paint a picture of everyday issues. As a producer, he finds his niche in percussion heavy beats, grungy synths and soothing melodies. With influences ranging from Kanye West to MF Doom, it's hard to categorize theBOLDone as an emcee/producer, it just sounds dope, and if there's point he can drive home, it's "fuck rules, find balance."
Collectively, Metaphor and theBOLDone create a sound that is truly unique and hard-hitting. Sobering truths told over a high inducing Hip-Hop music, these are the Elements.
