$ean Wire
About
Emotionally connected, intimately aggressive rap. Boston native, $ean Wire, refuses to let anyone put him or his creations in a box. $ean’s artistry is a blend of emotions, thoughts, and experiences spoken in a cadence and tone reminiscent of poetry. The enticing melody and meticulous delivery are matched by powerful lyrics and imagery that draw the listener inside of $ean’s world. He transitions flawlessly between thought-provoking rap and melodic singing challenging his listeners to turn inward and explore the organized chaos of their mind.
In January of 2019, $ean released DEAR, a project that bears witness to $ean boldly confronting the intensity and conviction of his emotions, thoughts, and experiences. We hear $ean growing through the unfair circumstances of life that he was born into as a Black man, coping and learning through tragedies such as being hit by a car, and balancing complex relationships with his parents, friends, and lovers. DEAR is a written history of deep lows and glorious triumphs. DEAR is $ean Wire defining $ean Wire.
With such a distinct sound that grapples with intricacies of life, it’s no surprise that $ean’s artistry proceeds him. $ean’s work has been covered by Rolling Stone Magazine, HypeBeast, Pitchfork, Lyrical Lemonade, DJ Booth.Net, Pigeons & Planes, This Is RnB. $ean has contributed to projects and collaborations at several music industry corporations such as Atlantic Records, Slip N Slide, Empire, RCA , and Universal Records. In 2019, $ean’s dedication and passion were recognized when he won R&B Artist Of The Year at the Boston Music Awards.
The accolades and coverage are welcomed but by no means the validation that $ean needs or craves. The genuine love and dedication he has for his craft; passion for melodies, beats, and tempos; and the depth at which he grapples with experiences so ubiquitous to the human experience that they themselves can only be considered human is what makes $ean’s work praiseworthy. It’s what sets him apart.
