EeS
From Namibia to South Africa to Germany, Eric Sell a.k.a. EeS, is moving up in the world and at a rapid pace. With 5 CDs under his belt in just 4 years, it is obvious that he has ambition and is not about to slow down. His music style is a blend of Kwaito, Reggea & Hip Hop, and has a really funky fresh spin to it. EeS started to slowly get into the basic business of music in the beginning of 2002, which happen to also be the year he released his first album titled Straight from NAM. EeS discovered his love for music when he was in Cape Town while doing his Diploma in Sound Engineering. At the end of 2003 EeS finished his studies and at the beginning of 2004 he went to Germany to work and improve on his music skills while trying to promote Namibian music at the same time in Germany. In 2005 he shot a professional music video Welcome to Reality - Snoop LOVE which was totally sponsored by a production company called CAPE CROSS GmBh, owner Thomas Brügge. In that same year EeS went back to Namibia and released his fifth album titled Wo Is Die Coolbox? which is supported by Namany, promoters in the finest Namibian-European music. Something that is truly fantastic is that despite working hard in Cologne, Germany to make a name for himself, EeS has never lost touch with his roots. He is proud of his home, NAMIBIA, and makes that statement clearly not only in his music, on his albums, his clothing line (EeS WeaR) or in his music videos but in the way he lives as well. He proudly wears his country and his home town on his sleeve, and not only in the figurative sense but literally as well. In his lyrics you can clearly hear the Afrikaans/English/German influence, and just when you thought it could not possibly get any better it does. EeS in his early 20s produced all of his albums himself under the name of EeS Records, his own Records label based in NAMIBIA. All in all EeS is a very outgoing person who just wants his listeners to enjoy his music and experience what he lives for, -Yes-Ja! Flava Music!
