Hailing from New Hampshire, an exciting, young, upstart rapper is emerging. Born and raised in Philippines, Erroll James moved to Concord, New Hampshire at the age of 16 in 2005.
He discovered his talent the year after he moved to the United States and started to save up money to build his home studio. “I love music,” says Erroll James, “but never thought of it as a career.” He soon recorded his first song “Pimp Hustle,” which was not tremendously successful.
He kept on writing and recording more songs in his home studio. He made demo CDs and passed them around in Concord High School with his first hit, “Beautiful.”
After a few months of hard work and sacrifice, he discovered Bristol Studios in Boston and recorded his single “My Broken Heart,” which was a success on Skyrock.com, a website devoted in hip hop music that is famous in France. He became #1 music blog in Skyrock.com. He then recorded his second single, “Ready To Conquer” with Bristol Studios.
He also hosted a show, "Radio HipHop w/ Erroll James," which is a college radio station at Southern New Hampshire University on "1620SNHU." It was a success and he had callers locally, nationally and online listeners worldwide.
He is currently a full-time freshman at University of New Hampshire and works part-time at the Holiday Inn when he can. “Most of my paycheck goes to my college and the rest goes to music,” says Erroll James, “I have to sacrifice because music is my life.”
Aside from music, he is also an actor and a model. He has appeared in “Drop Frame," directed by Thomas Clark, a documentary about urban life in Portsmouth, NH. He also did a background work for an upcoming movie “The Proposal,” starring Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds. He represents New England Model's Group, Model and Talent Management and Asian Boston. He learned most of his acting skills with Bethany Constance of A713productions and Patrick Baca, an LA Casting Director. He is also doing one on one artist development with producer Ric Poulin, a producer known to work with promising young artists such as JADA a phenomenal group of female singers.
Erroll James is ready to do New Hampshire proud and bust into the music and movie industry.
