Name: EES
From Namibia to South Africa to Germany, Eric Sell a.k.a. EES, is moving up in the world and at a rapid pace. With 8 CD’s under his belt in just 6 years, it is obvious that he has ambition and is not about to slow down. His music style is a blend of Kwaito (African House), Afro Pop, Reggae & Hip Hop, and has a really funky fresh spin to it. EES was born and bred in Namibia, and started to slowly get into the basic business of music in the beginning of 2001, creating a unique African vocal style singing and rapping.
EES discovered his love for music when he was in Cape Town while doing his Diploma in Sound Engineering. At the end of 2003 EES finished his studies and at the beginning of 2004 he went to Germany to work and improve on his music skills while trying to promote Namibian music at the same time in Germany.
In 2005 he shot a professional HD music video “Welcome to Reality - Snoop LOVE” which was sponsored by Cape Cross GmbH. In that same year EES went back to Namibia and released his first single called “Wo Is Die Coolbox?” a Namibian ‘Südwester Deutsch’ track, which is supported by NAMANY, promoters in the finest Namibian-European music. His HIT Album release is the 21 Track, Totally African (NAM Flava!) Album called “Sharp, Sharp!” featuring the best locals Namibian Artist there are to offer! It is the First Namibian Album to be sold Internationally via music web services.
Something that is truly fantastic is that despite working hard in Cologne, Germany to make a name for himself, EES has never lost touch with his roots. He is proud of his home, NAMIBIA, and makes that statement clearly not only in his music and his clothing line (EES WeaR) or in his music videos but in the way he lives as well. He proudly wears his country and his home town on his sleeve, and not only in the figurative sense but literally as well. In his lyrics you can clearly hear the Afrikaans/English/German influence, and just when you thought it could not possibly get any better it does. EES in his early 20’s produced most of his music himself under the name of EES Records, his established Record label based in NAMIBIA (AFRICA).
All in all EES is a very outgoing person who just wants his listeners to enjoy his music and experience what he lives for, Yes-Ja! - NAM Flava Music!
