provoking. “Sometimes political, sometimes comical, sometimes mystical, but usually danceable”. Equally at home in the intimacy of a coffee house or all out “balls to the wall” in any size club or festival. “He’s a funky, rootsy, rock and roll show”. Influenced by the Beat Poets, BeBop, Punk Rock, Rap, Blues, Anti-Folk, Soul and Funk. (All rolled into an enigmatic, unique form of self-expressed realness.)
Greg Englesson has been a street musician in the US and Canada. While pursuing a degree in philosophy he put together a music and poetry performance group in Boston called The Social Beings. Upon moving to New York City he appeared solo as The Social Pariah. He then founded and fronted the garage-punk band The Chronic Citizens and produced their debut album “Capital Cult”. It was distributed in the US and Europe... referred to by British press as a “modern R&B alternative” and was an underground hit in the USSR (on home-copied cassette tapes). The band reached cult status before it crashed and burned. Greg arose from the ashes with his book of poetry and an infinitely growing catalog of songs appearing around NYC and the Northeast
as The Chronic Citizen. He moved to Woodstock NY for the summer, became Mr.E had a child and never left.
After some film and voice-over experience and a string of Mr. E homespun demos Greg has reemerged with his first solo CD, Mr.E “Demystified”. Having played everywhere from CBGB’S and the Limelight to Union Square and the Knitting Factory Mr. E is presently booking clubs, coffee houses and festivals throughout the Northeast.

Not one that mess with M.E.

Boy ya betta not answer My phone

In this song, Mr. E speaks about his own success and the rumors that come with it. He mentions how he's too busy living his life, loving his family, and making his dreams a reality to worry about what others say about him. He also talks about the importance of speaking and acting truthfully and focusing on personal strategy, instead of being distracted by what others are saying or doing. Mr. E's lyrics convey a sense of confidence and determination, but also reveal underlying themes of love, family, and integrity.
The references to "purple rain," "purple haze," and "purple lotus" are nods to Prince and Jimi Hendrix, two musicians known for their groundbreaking work in the music industry. The mention of "cherry blossom" could refer to the cherry blossom trees in Washington D.C., which bloom every spring and are a beloved symbol of the city. The repetition of "let 'em gossip" emphasizes Mr. E's indifference to the rumors and criticism that come with success.
