About

East Coast World, a Jersey-born rap duo built their sound on passion, destiny, and Jersey realness. Chinedu and Chinedu were born in the same North Jersey hospital two weeks apart, given the same first name, and grew up nearly two miles away from one another. However, when those similarities failed to bring them together, their intense passion for music did when they attended the same New Jersey University in 2012. Immediately, a friendship was formed. Throw in hours of dorm room debates about Hip Hop, Top 5 MC rankings, lyricism, reciting their favorite iconic rap songs and their creative minds began to wander. Soon late night debates morphed into creative sessions where they discussed music content, sampling, and chemistry if they were to make a song of their own. When each of their ideas seemed to align, they went for it. 

Feeling as though there was a void in hip-hop, the two put their talent together and created music they felt would fill that void by fusing old school samples, Afro beats, 808's, lyricism, as well as content any person coming of age in this era will find relatable to create their own unique sound. Through their music, the two bring their experiences, their environment and their lessons learned to the forefront of the culture in an effort to bring the East Coast to the World.
