Brand new studio album by Grammy winning Hip-Hop / Singer-Songwriter artist Everlast, featuring guest such as Aloe Blacc and Slug. YOU CAN CALL HIM EVERLAST, WHITEY FORD OR EVEN ERIK FRANCIS SCHRODY, BUT BY ANY NAME, THIS SINGER-SONGWRITER-RAP LEGEND S REMARKABLE MUSIC CAREER HAS SEEN HIM REINVENT HIMSELF SEVERAL TIMES OVER. From his first solo album, Forever Everlasting, under the auspices of Ice-T s Rhyme Syndicate when he was barely out of his teens, to the Jump Around success with House of Pain, the multi-platinum Whitey Ford Sings the Blues (and its genre-bending hit single, What It s Like) and his Grammy-winning contribution to Carlos Santana s Supernatural album ( Put Your Lights On ), Everlast has defied the naysayers. Along the way, he has forged a groundbreaking merger of hip-hop, rock, folk, funk and R & B, influencing everyone from Kid Rock and Colt Ford to acolytes like Yelawolf, JellyRoll and Lil Wyte, even if he s too modest to say it himself. Everlast s newest album, Whitey Ford s House of Pain, once again on his own indie Martyr-Inc label, is his seventh solo studio effort overall, and first since 2011 s Songs of the Ungrateful Living (The Life Acoustic, re-recorded solo guitar versions of previously released songs, came out in 2013). The 12-track release offers an eclectic stylistic sampling from throughout Everlast s nearly-three-decade-long journey.
