Marcus Explains (M.E.)

about

Marcus Explains aka M.E.: Marcus Owens has been surrounded by music since his childhood, hearing everything from Roots Dub Reggae and Sly And The Family Stone through to Savannah Band and Electro coming through the speakers at home. It was this environment and his constant exposure to different forms of music that eventually lead to him being introduced to the culture of Hip-Hop. M.E relays his message, not from the realm of cliché ridden machismo but from the perspective of a man trying to better his life and yet recognising the inevitable pitfalls that come along the way. As he says ’I take the rough with the smooth cos that’s living…’ M.E. quotes ‘I make music and art in general for myself first, my family, my children, my comrades, my enemies, my neighbourhood, my rights and wrongs, my virtues and short comings. Everything is everything so if it’s a truth, brutal or beautiful I draw inspiration from it, life is the muse’ His EP “Eloyhymns” which was released in May 2011 has been an underground success and Marcus is currently working on his eagerly awaited debut album which is set for release in 2012.
