EQ is a hip hop hybrid hailing from Richmond VA. While his flow is definitely heavily influenced by the New York sound and the modern lyrical underground, the consistency in the blend of singing, spitting, and evidence he's provided showing he's no novice when it comes to R&B gives EQ a unique edge that seperates him from artists in the vicinity of his style. With influences ranging from Big Pun to Iron and Wine, the love of raw lyrical technique he saw had developed in the underground scene and a taste for more vibrant musicality spawned something unique, known as EQ. At nineteen years of age after two mixtapes and opening for XV, Mac Miller and Chris Webby, the self-engineered lyricist is set to release several tapes this Winter of 2011 before he releases a more definitive EQ-centered mixtape in the Spring.
