From his Youtube videos, with millions of hits, Prince Ea has developed a loyal internet fan base. In late 2008 Prince Ea recorded a video of himself spitting 70 bars and entered it into VIBE Magazine’s contest “VIBE VERSES.” A few months later, Ea was declared the VIBE Verses GRAND CHAMPION and was awarded $5000 in music recording equipment along with a Full Page Article in the VIBE Magazine.
As Prince Ea’s buzz continues to spread like wildfire, many have claimed that “Bar for Bar” Prince Ea quite possibly may be the Best rapper to come out in decades
