EZRA hosts a biweekly open mic called Five Minutes of Fame at Kieran's Irish Pub (330 S. 2nd Ave. in downtown Minneapolis) for those of you who live in the Twin Cities area. His first CD, WHY WON'T MORE OF YOU HAVE SEX WITH ME? is available in all Minnesota Cheapo Discs, in either the Local or the Hip-Hop section. As a spoken word artist, EZRA was a member of the 2004 MN Slam Team (check out slamMN.org for more on the slam), and has also opened for acts such as Heiruspecs, Edupoetic Enterbrainment and Deploi, among others. As a member of the Vibin' Collective, EZRA also performed at the 2004 Twin Cities Celebration of Hip-Hop, which featured Cee-Lo, Jean Grae, The C.O.R.E., Kanser and more.

Ezra is currently working on three albums: I THINK, THEREFORE IT IS ..., a full-length hip-hop album; TEN, a spoken word EP; and an as-yet-untitled experimental rock album with his duo VAS DEFERENZ, all to be released in 2006.
