Born in San Fransisco Ca. Raised in East Palo Alto by his grandmother, this young artist started writing lyrics at the age of 11. Using loops from various instrumentals from artist such as Onyx, E-40, 2Pac, Brotha Lynch Hung, Ghetto Boys, he learned the art of hip-hop and began driving his grandmother crazy with constantly playing music at all times of the day. Instead of making him stop, his grandmother encouraged him to learn read and write, so that he would have “something to say”. He hasn’t stopped since. Years later he found his way to Houston Texas where he began his life. Later on he meets his producer and good friend That Purple Bastard, and Hip-Hop hasn’t been the same since. Together they created That Purple Bastard Productions TM., and Ensane’s first album was born: That Purple Bastard Presents…Ensane The Him in 2009. Since then they have been climbing up the Hip-Hop ladder and have been introduced to the Houston Underground scene. Together they host a bi-weekliy Hip-Hop event called Turnin Headz (Founded By That Purple Bastard) and have stretched their arms out wide to the Houston Hip-Hop Community. Ensane is currently working on a second album,features on That Purple Bastard’s Hater Repellent Vol1,and a collaboration with his good friend Jon Black, calledPayper Boyz Ent./That Purple Bastard Prod presents…The Killafornianz. There is more to come from this up and comming artist so stay tuned…
