	Everlast (singer) at AllExperts
		Everlast (born Erik Schrody, August 18, 1969 in Valley Stream, New York) is an Irish-American rapper and singer-songwriter, known for his genre-crossing mix of rap and acoustic-based rock music.
		Everlast's second solo album Whitey Ford Sings the Blues (1998) – which was released a full eight years since his solo debut and after Everlast had a major heart attack – was both a commercial and critical success (selling more than 3 million copies).
		*Everlast's heart attack in 1998 was caused by a heart defect he was born with.

		Everlast - took his hip-hop folk blues to the intimate Sacramento Memorial Theater and came up with one of the most memorable concerts of the season.
		Everlast, born Erik Schrody, was introduced to the L.A. hip-hop scene as part of Ice-T's Rhyme Syndicate Cartel.
		Fortunately, blues-rapper Everlast was around to perform his hit from the multiplatinum album, growling the vaguely disturbing "Put Your Lights On." But as strong as the song is, Santana is reduced to the role of a hired gun, playing guitar fills that lack his usual distinctive flair.

		Grier was not the most polished lead singer, his voice devoid of smooth vibrato or effortless interchange between chords, and also possessed of a rough edged falsetto.
		This was one of those records from the fifties that everybody had to own, and every would be vocal group lead singer tried out his falsetto riffs on the tune.
		Everlast records and Danny Robinson seemed a bit unprepared for a hit of this magnitude right off the bat but they stick to it and persevere.

		Creator Erik Schrody (a/k/a Everlast) used up his 15 minutes of fame -- as leader of the gimmicky Irish rappers House of Pain -- a long time ago.
		But Everlast has a few worthwhile tricks up his sleeve.
		The rest of Whitey Ford alternates between straight hip-hop and guitar-based folk reminiscence, with the occasional Nine Inch/Zeppelin metal riffing ("Hot to Death") and some New Orleans piano rolls on "7 Years." In the end, it's an intriguing trip on backroads not often taken by the MC -- even the pale-skinned, shit-kicking kind.

		From talking to Tommy Boy artist Everlast, it is obvious that he is no longer as brash and devil-may-care as he was in his days with House of Pain.
		Everlast contemplates former relationships and near-death experiences with his new sound of music.
		Everlast's song "Letter," about his problems with his now ex-girlfriend, is a reflection of the man he was vs. the man he is. It is a personal confession, reflection, and apology that the old Everlast would never have made.

	Everlast -- "Whitey Ford Sings The Blues" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Everlast, the ex- lead singer of House of Pain, clearly thinks hip-hop has grown a bit too puffy.
		Everlast (Erik Schrody) is well aware that he is an odd choice to make this critique -- a Boston white boy who's only jumped around the hip-hop limelight.
		The combination is powerful; at moments, Everlast's instrumentation and musical choices are inspired, and he comes across as a world-weary hip-hop troubadour.

		Two people were hurt after an incident at an EVERLAST gig in DETROIT on Friday (February 2), in which three men apparently tried to attack the singer while he was onstage.
		The singer had just finished 'Jump Around', his former group House Of Pain's biggest hit, and launched into a rant against Detroit rapper Eminem, with whom he has had an ongoing slanging match, when three men rushed the stage.
		Everlast had also had a go at D-12, Eminem's side-project, and initial reports on Detroit TV, which are unconfirmed, speculated that the three men were part of the group.

	CityBeat: Short Takes (2000-10-26)
		Limp Bizkit and Everlast -- who both mix Rock with a Hip Hop aftertaste -- are just as much a part of the problem of contemporary music as Britney and Co. They are cogs in the major label music machine, making music from a salesperson's standpoint and not an artist's.
		Everlast fares somewhat better with Whitey's, which at least features a couple of stand-out songs., such as the slinky, tuneful and soulful "Black Coffee." But for the most part, the rapper-turned-"singer" simply mimics the style he won critical and commercial success with on his album, Whitey Ford Sings the Blues.
		Everlast seems to fancy himself a Blues singer now, but his minimalistic songwriting style makes a three-chord Blues song look like an elaborate Beethoven piece.

	Everlast - Eat At Whitey's
		Everlast had not been a figure in the public eye.
		Perhaps it is the voice, which would be more suited to an old fl blues singer in a mangled hat with ear-flaps than an aging rudeboy emcee.
		However, the third song, a collaboration with underground rapper Kurupt called One-Two is a successful merge of the two main sides of Everlast, with a heavy hip-hop rhythm, phat beats, but a not-quite singing, not-quite rapping vocal from our Mr Schrody and a tingly guitar sample, which makes for a heavily bluesy hip-hop cut.

		Everlast concluded their set with the single, which got cheers, and then exited the stage.
		Cake played a relatively short set mostly of songs off of their latest album, "Prolonging the Magic." John McCrea, the lead singer asked a stagehand to give his California driver's license to Isaac Hayes to sign, which was probably the most amusing moment of their set.
		The lead singer, M. Doughty's charisma got the audience dancing (even those not on the ground level were dancing on the precariously steep staircase).

		Before the brawl, Everlast also took a verbal shot at Smash Mouth -- who covered House of Pain's "Jump Around" on a recent tour -- calling them "faggots." Moments later he retracted it, saying that he didn't want to disrespect the gay population.

		Everlast: I'm enjoying myself, man. I mean, the music is all I really care about, you know, so coming from where I come from in music, you know, starting in the hip-hop and as I was growing older and just remembering music that my parents listened to, you know.
		Everlast: A little bit of everything, man. I mean, I tried to, like, on the last 2 records, like, “Whitey Ford Sings the Blues” was kind of like a half songs, half hip-hop record.

	City Pages - The First Shall Be Last
		You can tell that Everlast is a new kind of white rapper by the fact that critics and fans aren't comparing him to the fl--read "real," read "authentic"--hip hoppers he's supposed to be mimicking, but rather to big-selling white pop acts.
		Everlast's intended new audience isn't the hip-hop heads waiting for the sophomore joint by Prince Paul or old House of Pain fans, either, but the Dilbertian middle-class people for whom panic is just a downsize away.
		Everlast name-checks the homeless guy at the liquor store who can't beg enough for a drink; poor Mary who rages as she tries to push herself through the protesters in front of the abortion clinic; pathetic Max who fronts thug, sells drugs, and gets shot in an alley.

	Tucson Weekly: Rhythm & Views (October 15 - October 21, 1998)
		Rapper Everlast long ago spent his 15 minutes as leader of the Irish rappers House of Pain.
		Confounding the odds, Everlast rejuvenates himself from rap's scrap heap and fashions a new musical identity: the b-boy singer-songwriter.
		Ford alternates straight hip-hop with guitar-based folk-soul, mixing in unlikely concoctions such as the Nine Inch Zeppelin riffing on "Hot to Death," and the New Orleans piano rolls of "7 Years." The mix of city-kid rhymer and peckerwood poet is far too earthy to be called trip-hop.

		Yes, it's true that the show ended in violence, and yes it's true that Everlast did in some way start it by referring to Eminem as a "cartoon character, a midget, and a fggoty little btch" and talking about Eminem's hometown band D-12 as a bunch of morons "D-12.
		Everlast sounded great with his low raspy voice and his several guitars blaring.
		But the people who decided that Everlast went too far by insulting the man that said Everlast should have died from his heart attack ruined it.

		Everlast was similarly dismissive when asked about a House of Pain reunion, which he had talked openly about a couple of years ago.

		Everlast would appear, on the surface at least, to have jumped on the "let's try some odd combinations and see if they work" bandwagon which seems to be taking a lot of the music world by storm (Wyclef, I am looking in your direction).
		Everlast started out in House of Pain back in the day and then when they dropped off the face of the earth Everlast came with a blues/rock album that received a fair amount of praise.
		Everlast left only a small amount of hip-hop in his music, and added a lot of R'N'B, acoustic guitar rock, a touch of soul music, and even a string quartet.
