| Info: | Eric 'Oldhead' Davis resides in Nashville, Tennessee: My
music is influential and most importantly inspired by God.
It has endless possibilities.
Calling
Eric Davis predestined with a calling to change the scope of
hip hop and the lives of many. Eric Davis also known as
Oldhead is taking on the music industry by storm. Being
gifted with the ability to present Christ with a universal
feel that touches kids, teenagers and adults alike, Oldhead
is in a league of his own; divinely called to be separate,
but not equal for a larger cause to save lives and lead
people back to Christ.
Rejuvenated Mindz Ministries
Presently, Eric is the CEO of Rejuvenated Mindz Ministries,
a christian-based outreach organization where the mission is
turning the hearts of men back toward God. We are living in
a society were violence is at an all time high. In today's
society, doing right and living right is considered wrong,
and living wrong and doing wrong is considered right. Women
are taught to decrease their moral values to be accepted in
today's society. Young people drop out of school to sell
drugs because good job opportunities are not available to
them and proper guidance is not being displayed by parents
in their homes. Ever since the day God's Love consumed me, I
could not stand to see a generation left for dead and dying
when there is life to give them, explains Eric.
Hip Hop
While living in Cleveland, Tennessee at the age of 16,
Eric's desire for hip hop began in the basement of his close
friend, , who was also an artist named Leftova?s. My uncle
Ben influenced me to get into music and from there Leftova's
and I started rapping. It seemed like hip hop had this truth
that my soul hungered for and I just wanted to be apart of
telling the truth to people. I love everything about music,
the art, the video's, the rhymes, the culture, the people
and the influence that rap music had, says Oldhead.
Influences
Originally influenced by 2 Pac, Eightball and MJG, Outkast,
Goodie Mob, P.A., The Dungeon Family, Nas and Jay-Z, Eric
begin to create his own sound. Currently his influences have
expanded to include Kirk Franklin, Cece Winans, and Ahmad
and 4th Avenue Jones. Eric states, My music is God focused,
soulful, truthful, passionate, heartfelt, and real. It is
the music that God has given me and it has no boundaries and
no limitations.
National Exposure
In 1999 MTV and Loud Records hosted a worldwide talent
contest during MTV?s Hip-Hop week. The song "Why Test,"
submitted by Oldhead's group, then named "Rejuvenated
Mindz", was picked as one of the 32 finalists out of more
than 600 entrants. While the group did not acquire a
contract with Loud Records, this provided them with their
first national exposure.
Touring
Eventually Eric broke away into his own ministry where he
has toured with Phil Driscoll, a Grammy Award winning artist
and trumpet player, who has played for five U.S. Presidents,
and who is one of the original members of the legendary rock
group Blood, Sweat & Tears.
