"We Are Only Getting Older" is a reflective album that explores the mindset of a 40 year old in today's youth driven landscape. With the landscape being both hiphop and life, I speak on the joys and pains of both from the perspective of a proud family man and hiphop enthusiast.

Based out of Mississauga, Ont (suburb of Toronto), Es is a student of hiphop. Inspired by golden era hip hop, Es makes a conscious effort to capture the essence of hip hop with hard beats and raw rhymes. His introduction to hiphop came in the mid to late 80s, drawing inspiration from legendary acts such as EPMD, KRS-One, LL Cool J, Big Daddy Kane and Run DMC. It wasn’t until 1991 that Es began putting pen to paper to craft his own rhymes. Attributing his current style of hiphop to a mix of 90s heavyweights such as KRS-One, Masta Ace, Common, Talib Kweli, A Tribe Called Quest, Slum Village and Pharoahe Monch, Es would officially begin his musical journey releasing music in 2007.
Fast forward 12 years to 2019, Es' journey to deliver quality music continues. With 4 quality albums under his belt, several favourable album reviews online, college radio chartings and festival performances, his 5th solo album promises to be another solid addition to his catalogue for lovers of true school hiphop
