Born in Kingston, Jamaica as Ripton Hylton, Eek-a-Mouse began his foray into reggae music when he was in college, but did not begin to garner a substantial audience until 1979 with his hit "Once a Virgin". This same year, he changed his singing name to "Eek-a-Mouse", the name of the racehorse he always bet on. In 1981, he cheered up the Reggae Sunsplash Festival, which was still mourning over the death of reggae icon Bob Marley. After this, his fame continued increasing through the year 1982 until 1988, when he released "Eek-A-Nomics", his last full-length CD until 1996.
Eek-a-Mouse is a regular at the Jamaican music festival Reggae Sunsplash and often teams up with reggae duo Michigan and Smiley. He has also been featured on Christian rock group P.O.D.'s (Payable on Death) album Satellite, lending his vocals to the rock-reggae track "Ridiculous".

Weed song. uhuhuh
The lyrics to Eek-A-Mouse's song I Love Weed are dedicated to the admiration of marijuana. The lyrics suggest leaving parents out of smoking and boldly mentions how much the artist loves weed. The song references Proposition 2 15, which is a medical marijuana regulation in California. It highlights how marijuana is known as 'ganja' in Jamaica and how it is deeply ingrained in the Jamaican culture. The chorus repeats "Weed weed, I love weed” multiple times, emphasizing the artist's love for marijuana. The song also mentions how the "founding father" (presumably referring to the American founding fathers) smoked, planted, and loved weed, implying that marijuana is a part of American culture as well.
The lyrics also mention other locations where marijuana is grown and consumed, including Baton Rouge and Santa Cruz. The lyrics, "take the weed don't get me wrong" indicate that the artist wants the audience to understand that he loves the weed and promotes its use but also recognizes that there can be negative effects if abused.
