THE OVERTIME ERAS (2012 - 2016)

San Francisco rapper Furious Stylez was almost done with Hip-Hop before he even started. Hip-Hop had gone from “please listen to my demo” to “Ouch I got punched on the internet and now I’m a famous rapper” and he was in total disgust. Before this he had been using traditional methods of Hip-Hop producing local mix-tapes and hoping to catch a buzz in the Bay Area independent market working with legendary producers like JT The Bigga Figga, Cozmo and Tone Capone. He lucked up when his long time mentor and family friend Martin Luther McCoy replaced a original member of The Roots and Black Thought placed Stylez in a group with his long time protégé Makk Dubb “The Perfect Strangers”. Long story short it went nowhere and Stylez found himself in Houston during the Swisha House Movement assisting JT The Bigga Figga with a possible Rap-a-Lot West deal. Again the deal just didn’t work out and Stylez found himself back and the drawing board but this time he wasn’t alone. With funds depleted he roomed up with his cousins, Now Roc-Nation song writer J-Angel and MTV’s Making The Band 4 rising star Brian Angel of Day 26 but back then the were just Joseph and Brian.  As time went on the three vowed to each other that if one of them makes it, they would reach back for the other and that’s exactly what Brian did. Though Stylez wasn’t getting paid for his talents he was paid to act as a road manger for the Bad Boy Group Day 26 and worked very close with manager Screwface. This is where his love for the game began to fade. The music industry just didn’t seem real anymore and he wanted out. He tried utilizing his celebrity contacts that he made in the business to promote night clubs but that shoe just didn’t fit. Dumbfounded Furious caught himself watching a video online of anonymous rapper and he thought “enough is enough, I know I can do this better”. Realizing the game was no longer “climb up the totem pole” Stylez reactivated he social media accounts recorded a couple tracks and hit the road passing out flyers for his upcoming EP which wasn’t even finished when he found himself in Denver taking a toke with OPM security “Hambone”, who took a liking to Stylez and Introduced him to fellow California natives Dom Kennedy, Skeme and tour manager Wayne Carter who without hesitation asked Furious to open for Skeme and Dom for the remainder of Dom Kennedy’s Get Home Safely in February 2014 . Gearing up for his November release Furious Stylez explains the quite fitting tittle to His forthcoming EP “Expect Delays”. “I finally got”, it says the  30 year old seasoned rookie. “I just realized that no matter what you do or how bad you want things to happen, Things only happen when god see’s fit. So you should just work hard at your craft and let god do the rest”.

I'm recording this on my couch because i'm too lazy to get up
Last night was great, but in some ways i'm fed up
Sometimes time flies by like it's been sped up
But I gotta keep moving forward, I can't ever let up
All these thoughts always running rampant through my head sucks
Walking back down from this path i've been lead up
But today, away with the thoughts about who said what
I just feel like telling this fly that's bugging me to get fucked
And I don't even know what i'm doin' man
It's like this life is just slipping right through my hands
There's a few thing I kinda wish that I could do again
And I thought i'd taught myself not to make stupid plans
If Superman can have a heart attack and die
And good people lose everything they have in life
Then why bother? Nah, I gotta shake that frame of mind
My daughter just turned 4, and she's got the most amazing smile
Damn I fucking love my life sometimes I can't deny it
But i'm only human so don't expect me to get every answer right
That's the thing about all this it's so hard to explain
But let's just have a good time on this marvellous day, it's Good Friday


I saw this video the other night that had me in tears
A girl talking about all the pain she had through the years
How bullying had brought her to the point where she wanted to kill herself
And guess what? She actually did
No matter how hard we try to find the happiness here
There are always people who wanna see all that disappear
Society tells us how we have to appear
And gives us certain criteria to which we have to adhere
Go against that, expect no compassion, but fear
And get attacked by your peers calling you faggot or queer
It's disgusting, the way people act
The things they say, with no way of taking it back
Call her ugly, tell her she should kill herself, and send her
To a place where there's no way of making it back
The internet's great, but I fucking hate it for that
The way people always seem to get away with this crap
I wish there was more that I could do to make a change but
I guess there's only so much that I can say on a track
So while you're sitting inside because it's raining out there
Think about what i've said and enjoy what's left, of Good Friday

An extremely heavy Zeed The Mantis remix of the title track and first single to my sophomore album 'Infinity'. The original is produced by One Above, whose link I'm going to throw below. There's only 100 downloads available on this bad boy right now, so feel free to reupload it elsewhere and help me spread it. If anyone wants to make a video remix of the clip let me know and we'll sort it out!

My take on Flume's song of the same title.. 

Said I'm a space cadet
I'm sorry if you came and went
I'm not home, in my zone where I changed the set
Where I am is not the main event
But where i'm at in my mind, intertwined with where the anchor rests
But how do I explain to them
That i'm trying to escape the clench of a tiny little brain that's stressed
On a mission to find where all the pages went
I'm out to visit all the places I haven't stayed at yet
I'm a drifter, risk like when I play roulette
But you could make a bet that i'm not ready yet to make my bed
I'm not made for being paid i'm in the 8 percent
And I won't change my mind, i'm still trying to change my step
I'm afraid if I go, scared to escape the nest 
But I would rather play dead than to play regret


There's a place I like to go, far away all on my own
Just let me be, let me be


Words trickle through my mind, nevermind what i've left behind
Your skin's flawless, the pain is still etched in mine
We are not the same, I stay spaced out
Different world's though we're living in the same house
In the same room, on the same couch
I found mine, you just need to find a way out
But I think it's gonna be a long time
Filled with short days, and staring at the clock through the long nights


There's a place I like to go, far away all on my own
Just let me be, let me be

And if you see me in the stars, please just know i'm not that far
I'll be home oh i'll be home

Ello. C grew up in multicultural West Sydney. His family emigrated to Auckland, NZ from Manila, Philippines in the 90s, before settling in Australia in the 2000's. The soundtrack of Ello's youth was eclectic, influenced by his fathers love of classic rock & his mother’s affection for old school R&B. He found inspiration with hiphop & alternative rock by age 13. Recording freestyles over instrumental beat tapes, relentlessly developing lyrical intricacy while learning to audio engineer. With appreciation for many rap era's, he's kept audiences intrigued with blends of boom-bap, future melodic & experimental sounds.  

By 2016, Ello had released an array of well received mixtapes collaborating with long time peers https://soundcloud.com/christianjoseph,  https://soundcloud.com/tim-bautista & https://soundcloud.com/leemonro showcasing his growing skills as a lyricist and performer bringing opportunities for him to play as support act for international rap icons The Game, Naughty By Nature, Xzibit, Mobb Deep, and Bone Thugs N Harmony during their Australian tours. 
 
Years passing, Ello's earned his profile in Sydney's underground as a versatile MC with razor sharp wordplay through various sub-genres of rap. Ello's also pushed his creative boundaries becoming frontman of alternative rock band
https://soundcloud.com/dream-cities. They released and toured their debut album “Everybody’s Nobody” in 2018. 
 
Between 2019 - 2020 he's further released new music consistently expanding the limits of his artistry and working on a brand new EP set to release in 2022.
