Based out of Brooklyn, New York, eXquire has a style that mixes grime and intellectual irreverence in equal parts – evoking the salad days of mid-90’s New York sound and its stars, while keeping a keen eye on progressing the culture that defined the city’s identity. Since posting his $400 video for “Huzzah” the lead single of 2011’s breakout mixtape Lost in Translation, a scathing chronicle of the life of a modern NY anti-hero, has raised more than a few eyebrows with his one-of-a-kind voice, uncanny songwriting ability, and the dominating presence and precision of his king-making live shows. Possessing the courage to ignore the industry’s narrow-minded conceptions of what a rapper should be, eXquire is ready to take what nobody will give him. eX appeared on many yearend lists including Pitchfork’s Top 100 Tracks of 2011 and Top Music Videos of 2011.
 
In 2012, eXquire released his EP, Power & Passion with Republic Records – featuring production from El-P and Harry Fraud and followed with June’s acclaimed project, Kismet, featuring Danny Brown, The Alchemist, and Chance The Rapper. His constantly reinvented sound has lead to the eager anticipation of his major label debut LP – slated for a summer 2014 release – that insiders are already calling it the truly uncompromising ode to the reality of Brooklyn and New York as it is today.
