With an impeccable delivery and unmatched cadence, Ekko, born Eric Vega, storms the hip hop scene with unique passion and creativity for his own raw yet positive style of rapping. The harsh reality of growing up without much intertwined and constantly moving around the country trying to find stable grounds has made Ekko a.k.a. Young Ancient wise beyond his years.
Tales of poverty, conflict, hope and struggle are simply the inner core of what enables Ekko to connect with his international fan base regardless of color, religion, or socioeconomic status.
The world hears his soul on every track and they immediately gravitate to his realness. Aside from the truth and wisdom which shines brightest in his lyrics, Ekko has unmatched rhyming ability and the ambition to consistently improve what he has already seemed to master.
Born in Oklahoma, Ekko has trekked throughout the country as a result of life’s unpredictable obstacles of poverty and survival. Places like The Bronx, New Jersey, Texas, Florida, California, Brooklyn and Reading, Pennsylvania have all been stops along his journey.
These unstable circumstances have lead Ekko toward his permanent home in the studio where he found a blameless place of release, and encouragement to be himself. Ekko’s lyricism illustrates the absorption of reality in a way that represents beyond that of a counterfeit vision of truth. Experience Ekko for yourself and enjoy a much-needed break from the normal confines of modern hip-hop.
