Copied!

Intro:
60
Yo yo

Verse 1:
I grew up in the Inland, now I'm rocking out in Finland
Tried to pigeon hold my, but the kid broke through the ceiling
Now I'm after millions in the game with my affiliates
And every other day you can see the kid killing it
Far from being local, now the kid is bi-coastal
Know the name around the way you don't gotta check the socials This ones for the home team, gotta rep my section dude
Now I add value to everything I'm connected to
Respect a few, got no love for the rest of you
Seen me out at Jamla and now they wanna text the dude
See I'm next up, still holding the west up
Couldn't read where it was going, guess they had dyslexia
You don't know by now then you better ask Alexa
When you see me in a Tesla pulling up to the fiesta
This ain't an album, its more like the best of
And we just getting started, so y'all better rest up

Chorus:
Yea so what's my mother fucking name Sixty east
Are you not entertained
Ten years in now the kid is here to stay
Uh so say my mother fucking name Sixty East
Yea so what's my mother fucking name Sixty east
Are you not entertained
Ten years in now the kid is here to stay
Uh so say my mother fucking name Sixty East
Say my mother fucking name, 60 East
Say my mother fucking name, 60 East
Say my mother fucking name, 60 East

Verse 2:
Ayo My fanbase done took me through the landscapes
Now i'm a legend in the states like Pat Stay
I'm all in never been the type to half way
Now i'm the man, turned my band into a brand name
King of the town, got the keys to the city now
Went from underground to bringing the whole city out
Now you can't mention the west without me
The fans voted and named me the best in county uh
Manifested it, claimed my destiny
Invested time and patience, and all my energy and now
My name embedded in all the memories
And I came to kill till i'm in the hills of beverly
From locally grown, to globally know
From totally broke to holding the thrown
And now we making history setting in stone
So next time that you hear it you better act like you know uh

Chorus:
Yea so what's my mother fucking name Sixty east

Ten years in now the kid is here to stay
Uh so say my mother fucking name Sixty East
Yea so what's my mother fucking name Sixty east

Biography

edit bio

60 East is a hip-hop MC, community activist and festival producer whose West Coast style converges with an East Coast flow. Hailing from the sprawling metropolis of Southern California’s Inland Empire, his talent has carried him from his native Ontario to the Czech Republic’s world-renowned Hip-Hop Kemp Festival and landed him tours or collaborations with Evidence, 9th Wonder, Joell Ortiz, and numerous other highly regarded artists.

For more than a decade, 60 East has crafted for himself an array of notable accolades, including being named Best Hip-Hop Artist by IE Weekly in 2013– recognition which made him arguably one of the most recognized MCs from the region. After a year-long campaign to win a performance slot, 60 performed at the 2013 Paid Dues, the pre-eminent indie rap festival founded by Los Angeles hip-hop icon Murs. There, he shared a stage with Kendrick Lamar, Nipsey Hussle, Macklemore and more in front of 30,000 people. In 2015, 60 East joined Joell Ortiz and !llind’s Human Tour before heading to the prestigious A3C Festival in Atlanta and winning the “This is My Year” contest presented by DJ Booth and Sonicbids. Some of the 500 stages he’s touched throughout his career include a headlining appearance at Poland’s Zabij Nude Festival; the Netherlands’ Winterclash, the world’s biggest rollerblading competition; R.A. the Rugged Man & A-F-R-O’s 2016 spring tour, as official East Coast tour support; Apathy and Celph Titled’s Widow’s Son Tour in 2018, as official East Coast tour support; and Devin the Dude’s 2018 European tour. Most recently, he appeared on the 2018 Jericho Jackson Tour with Elzhi & Khrysis in conjunction with 9th Wonder’s Jamla Records and alongside Skyzoo for Mello Music Group’s 2019 Retropolitan Tour.

As a recording artist, 60 East – a former member of Sacramento, California group/label First Dirt – is well known for his Freeway Series, a collection of three EPs dating back to 2014 which features production from Curtiss King, Omega and Phil the Pain, plus guest appearances from Fashawn, A-F-R-O and Cam Meekins. His debut album, 2016’s 10,000 Hours, features venerated MCs Skyzoo and Blu. Currently, he is developing music with the Grammy-winning producer Evidence and wrapping up work on an album with Grammy-nominated producers Khrysis and Eric G.

60 East has earned critical acclaim on the airwaves and in the blogosphere from legendary Los Angeles radio platform “Big Boy’s Neighborhood,” as well as “The Wake Up Show” (where he was named Artist of the Week by Sway and King Tec), B-Real TV, 2DopeBoyz, Thisis50 and UGHH. With over one-million video views on Facebook, his career trajectory has placed him squarely in the forefront of independent hip-hop.

Describing his music as personal and living at the crossroads of “street” and “conscious,” 60’s musical perspective is inspired by not only MCs like The Notorious B.I.G. and Rakim, but also film directors like Guy Ritchie and Quentin Tarantino and others including Jim Morrison and Banksy. Armed with an unending love for his daughter, his city and his Hispanic heritage, 60 East has spent the last few years investing his talents in his community, through speaking engagements, the launch of his Happiness of Pursuit Arts Foundation, and the founding of his very own music festival.

Now entering its fifth year, the Happiness of Pursuit Festival has included performances from Mobb Deep, Conway, Benny the Butcher, Obie Trice and others. In a historic appearance, Murs performed at what has been called “the new Paid Dues,” solidifying the Happiness of Pursuit as the region’s leading event of its kind. As Founder of the Festival, 60 East has become a leading figure in the Inland Empire’s indie hip-hop industry, cultivating a local platform through which independent artists can prime themselves for the national market. Additionally, he has been a featured speaker at various colleges throughout Southern California as well as events including URBIE, the Indie Entertainment Summit, 2x2 Festival and more. In addition to educating aspiring musicians about the industry, 60 is passionate about creating opportunities within the Hispanic community and encouraging them to embrace individuality in place of stereotypes.
