ABOUT

Born in San Fransisco Ca. Raised in East Palo Alto by his grandmother, this young artist started writing lyrics at the age of 11. Using loops from various instrumentals from artist such as Onyx, E-40, 2Pac, Brotha Lynch Hung, Ghetto Boys, he learned the art of hip-hop and
began driving his grandmother crazy with constantly playing music at all times of the day. Instead of making him stop, his grandmother encouraged him to learn read and write, so that he would have "something to say". He hasn't stopped since. Years later he found his way to Houston Texas where he began his life. Later on he meets his producer and good friend That Purple Bastard, and Hip-Hop hasn't been the same since. Together they created That Purple Bastard Productions TM., and Ensane's first album was born: That Purple Bastard Presents...Ensane The Him in 2009. Since then they have been climbing up the Hip-Hop ladder and have been introduced to the Houston Underground scene. Together they host a bi-weekly Hip-Hop event called Turnin Headz (Founded By That Purple Bastard) and have stretched their arms out wide to the Houston Hip-Hop Community. Ensane Also has done tons of work with his close friends Jon Black & Sherman "Sherm Sticc" Snyder of Eklips Productions. The Killafornianz was the first collaborated album that Ensane & Jon Black worked on, with a new The Killafornianz album on the way next year. Ensane just released a new album titled "FAUST" with 90% production done by Ensane's record lable "Maniakal Melodiez" with tracks produced by Eklips Productions & Purple Bastard Productions with guest appearances by Renzo & UnKnown. you can find the new album at .en-sane..
