| | Edgar Allen Po'Etry His Story Means History CD Edgar Allen Po'Etry Discography of CDs
Growing up on the 'urban-side' of Burlington, a small North Carolina town later known as 'Berlin' for its cultural division, Edgar Allen Po'etry discovered his love for music at a young age. First gaining a major appreciation for the art form from his father's collection of 70's heavy hitters such as Sly and the Family Stone, Curtis Mayfield and Patti LaBelle, he then began to use music as a vehicle to express his real life experiences. Days spent on the local basketball court introduced Edgar Allen Po'etry to the hip-hop culture. Early albums by Eric B. and Rakim, M.C. Lyte, and Slick Rick secured his love for the craft. Rhyming and B-boying with childhood friend Alibi became a part of life and helped him perfect his gift. At age 16, he made his first recording with the Underworld Dynasty at D.J. Polo's Greensboro, NC studio. Using music as his only outlet, Edgar Allen Po'etry learned to pour real life situations and emotions into poetic form. And from there his cinematic wordplay and lyricism continued to flourish. Through freestyle ciphers and local battles he gained respect and credibility. Being able to create visual images involving scenes of true life 'hood stories, philosophies, relationships, spirituality, and pain with words, Po was established as a definite emcee by age 18. Since then, he has connected with audiences all over the Triad (Winston -Salem, High Point, and Greensboro) and Triangle (Raleigh, Durham, and Cary) areas in North Carolina. Po has also performed at several intimate venues in the Charlotte area such as, The Spot, Fire and Ice, and Tropical Heat. He has even ventured into international waters by ripping the stage at Elwood's in St. John, New Brunswick in Canada. This is where history was born in the form of his story aka Edgar Allen Po'etry.

His Story Means History album
 $15.65   
On THE BLUEPRINT 3, still unretired Jay-Z announces "the only rapper to rewrite history without a pen." It's a standard Jigga boast, but the Brooklyn icon has earned the bragging by backing it up, particularly on his gold-label, top-shelf BLUEPRINT series. Ever-ready for battle, Jay-Z takes on autotune, crossover radio, and many other hip-hop concerns with the gloriously jagged rap elan for which he's become known.
When Jay-Z first made a series out of his best album, 2001's The Blueprint, it became a game of high expectations. The first volume saw Jay-Z as vital as he'd ever been, storming back to the hardcore after ...

What's love got to do with it? Everything, according to James Whitney, Soul singer extraordinaire and was one of the childhood lead singers of the Whitney Family musical group. It was love songs that captured James' feelings so much that he had to express those feelings by singing and writing love songs himself. At age 4, James was only four, when his mother was hanging clothes in the backyard and he started singing harmony to his Mother's lead. His Mother was amazed not only that he could sing, but that he had the "musical ears" to hear and sing harmony to any song that he heard. "I used to press my ear against the families radio, listening to the music with no distraction from the outside world...the Bass rumbling through my body...my soul...until one of my parents would pull me away..."Boy, you gonna go deaf if you don't move back! But, I knew better. I was learning from all those songs". As he grew older, James was possessed by the desire to express himself through song...first by singing and then by writing his own original materials.A friend and contemporary of Stevie Wonder, (whom he met through his sister, Mary Lee Whitney who sang background on many of Stevie's biggest hits) James remembers singing together while riding in his convertible. Another contemporary was Marvin Gaye, with whom James shared creating a music sound track for the movie Chrome and Hot Leather. James' early musical influences were Bobby Blue Bland, Frankie Lymon, Little Willie John and a non-descript Sanctified Church that he would hear on Sundays through the fence of one of his early homes. By age 12 James joined his brother's singing group, the Parakeets who sang at College dances, nightclubs and Concerts. By age 14 the group had worked at nearly all the Nightclubs in the Oregon, and Washington area. Next James at age 14 formed the singing group The Monoreys who followed the Club circuit in Portland and Seattle. Then James helped to form the Harleguins with his sister Mary, Tony Lytle, Henry Moore and Bill Diz. Dreaming of California they headed to LA and then eventually the name to the Seven Souls, where other prominent musicians like Bob Welch, Bobby Hunt, joined the group. James also wrote ...
