There are very few emcees today who truly come from the heart, who have a strong passion and love for their craft, and who are considered an original, next level artist. Once you hear one verse from Edgar Allen Floe, you realize you have spotted one of these kinds of artists.
Edgar Allen Floe has seen Hiphop grow and blossom in different phases. From the old school Kurtis Blow, Whodini days; the KRS-ONE, Rakim, Big Daddy Kane golden age; to the new millennium of Hiphoppas with a connection to the Internet. Edgar has been in love with Hiphop since as far back as he can remember, and began writing at the age of 14. Initially dreaming of being a Deejay, he slowly found he could really be considered, by many, as a top notch emcee. So, he decided to become serious with his craft in 1996.
A versatile artist, Edgar Allen is also known as Slicemysta, producing for his immediate crew, The Undefined, with partner in rhyme, Mal Demolish. He has produced many tracks that have been well received by a number of fans all over the world. He is also a part of the 15 man musical family, The Justus League, which include members 9th Wonder, Little Brother, Cesar Comanche, L.E.G.A.C.Y., among others.
