E.i. the King’s life is a testament to transformation and redemption. Emerging from a past filled with crime, drug dealing, robberies, and violence, E.i.’s early years were marked by chaos and over 14 years of incarceration in both juvenile and adult facilities. Yet, it was during his time behind bars that E.i.’s life changed forever. Encountering God and committing to a life of faith, he discovered purpose in the midst of imprisonment.

Now a nationally recognized artist, E.i. the King uses his music and story to inspire others, focusing on prison, jail, and street outreach. Known as one of the most influential voices in the prison system through inmate tablets, E.i. has collaborated with icons like Project Pat, earned a public cosign from Timbaland, and empowers the same street culture from which he came. His incredible comeback story continues to resonate, proving that change is possible and purpose can be found in the most unexpected places.
