MC Breed

Eric Breed, better known by his stage name MC Breed, was a pioneering American rapper hailing from Flint, Michigan. Born on June 12, 1971, Breed first burst onto the national scene with the release of his debut album "MC Breed & DFC" in 1991, which was a collaboration with the rap group DFC (Da Flint Crew). His gritty, laid-back flow quickly set him apart in the burgeoning hip-hop landscape of the early 90s. The album included what arguably became his most famous single, "Ain't No Future in Yo' Frontin'," which helped to put Midwest rap on the map.

As his career progressed, MC Breed continued to embody the evolving sound of Midwestern hip-hop. His fourth album, "Funkafied," released in 1994, showcased a transition to a funk-infused sound, reflecting his versatility and artistic growth. Over the years, Breed released a substantial body of work, with albums like "The New Breed," "20 Below," and "It's All Good," further cementing his reputation as a core influence in the genre. His capacity to collaborate broadly was evident in projects like "Street Kings Gumbo Mix Vol.1" and the posthumously released "The Fharmacist." MC Breed's ability to merge street narratives with smooth, funk-inflected beats made him a beloved figure in the hip-hop community, and his influence endures within the music industry despite his untimely passing on November 22, 2008.
