Little Havana’s own ER305 has been making a name from himself over the last five years. As one-half of the rap group the Vagabonds, ER305 has been rapping, producing, mixing, and mastering since the group’s debut EP, #FML, dropped in 2012. During that same year, ER performed over 50 shows at festivals like SXSW. He shared stages with the likes of Maybach Music’s Gunplay, Schoolboy Q, Big K.R.I.T., Stalley, and Casey Veggies. Last year, the Guatemalan/Honduran rapper released his solo LP, Tunnel Vision, which features production from Cardiak, Nard & B, and more. It also features his collaboration with Miami locals Prez P and FloKid. - Miami New Times Newspaper
Little Havana earned a lot more street cred once ER305’s gruff and tough rhymes began to echo throughout Calle Ocho. As one half of the rap duo The Vagabonds, ER’s keen sense for production and mastering as well as his defensive wordplay stemming from his life growing up in and around the historically Cuban neighborhood stood out on the duo’s debut EP #FML. The project gained national attention from the blogs, which encouraged ER to eventually branch out on his own.
The Honduran/Guatemalan emcee took his talents on the road in 2013. He went on to share stages with the likes of Maybach Music’s Gunplay, Schoolboy Q, Big K.R.I.T., Stalley, and Casey Veggies. ER delivered songs like “Showroom 305” and “Back Door” produced by Metro Boomin to festivals like SXSW in Austin, TX and A3C in Atlanta. In 2016, his latest project Tunnel Vision continues to make waves across the southeast. - Vibe Magazine

Bio
Hailing from Miami's inner-city Little Havana neighborhood, ER305. is a product of the melting pot that the Magic City is famous for. His powerful voice commands attention over self-produced beats, which draws influence from the different sounds and eras of hip-hop leading up to today.
ER305 makes up one half of the rap duo The Vagabonds who in 2011 released the "Good Neighbors compilation project featuring other up and coming Miami acts. In 2012 The Vagabonds (made up of ER305 and Baysiqly), released their debut EP, "#FML", which was entirely produced, mixed, and mastered by ER305. Although it was the only project the group released in 2012, "#FML" not only brought awareness to The Vagabonds in in South Florida but also virally in the hip-hop blogosphere, landing them on sites such as the UK's NME Magazine, DJBooth.net, and KevinNottingham.com, among others.
Quickly ER305 became a staple in the Miami hip-hop scene performing in over 50 shows in 2012. Hes shared the stage with the likes of Maybach Musics Gunplay, Schoolboy Q, Big K.R.I.T., Stalley, Casey Veggies, and most recently headlined two events at SXSW 2014, one of which he co-headlined with Brick Squad rapper Frenchie and Fred The Godson.
"I'm from Lil' Havana, from a family of very humble means. I appreciate that I have that as fuel to drive my music, says ER305 I was raised around the street life as long as I've been alive but I want my music to show the youth that there's other, more positive ways out of poverty besides the streets."
ER305 prides himself in creating real, down to earth music revolving around his life experiences and hopes to lead the pack in this new age of hip-hop in the years to come.
