EZ Mil Hits Easy 22 Million For Honoring His Roots
“I am very happy that the work I put in has bore its fruit and just happy with that fact and very thankful to those who have tuned in and I am now just excited to go forward,” he said with a poker face during his interview.
For someone who is just in his twenties, Ezekiel Miller, the son of Sapiera and brother of Sorrowful Rain, shows incredible commitment and maturity when it comes to his artistry. His pretty boy looks have got people comparing him to Billie Eilish (male version) and some even cited popular Youtuber Zeinab Harake as having called him the “Pinoy Eminem” in the comments section of his Wish Bush USA performance, which has 22,040,201 views as of writing.
His simple wish is to stretch himself the best that he could when it comes to working on projects and that people will “tune in”. He did clarify that he wants his works to show his patriotism towards the Philippines.
Aside from music, he showed noticeable talent in skateboarding as well as video editing, if one will do his research. However, he humbly stated that he is just a hobbyist who just happens to be passionate in everything he tries.
‘Panalo (Trap Carinosa)’ is a part of his Act 1 album, which contains his original music spanning a variety of genres. He did understand the risk of it being more difficult to promote but he’s more than happy to face the challenge head on.
He also stated that though part of the reason for his move to Las Vegas was indeed to go full throttle with his career, it was also for family reasons, for his mom Hazel Miller, also a part of his management team.
Regarding the Ilocano lyrics in his song, he did clarify that a part of his family lineage came from the Ilocos region. “I just did my best to come up with most savage lines I could come up with,” he said.
He also does not want to sanitize the song to give in to naysayers regarding the “pinugutan si Lapu-Lapu” bit, which he emphasized is a hyperbole just like most hip-hop and rap artists do with their lyrics, and is not to be taken literally.
“Pag nadapa ako, meron along dalawang kantang nasulat daw,” said EZ regarding the joke going around his camp propagated by Usher Turkey, his road manager. “I’m just a regular guy that loves music, so, the ideas of songs come to me, and then I save the ideas as like…voice recordings on my phone,” he said regarding his artistic process.
He seems to have a penchant for dry humor, as he does show admiration for Youtuber Cong TV and is thankful to him for helping promote his music.
Aside from Youtube, he has already garnered a following on Twitter, but some of the are actually following a poser. EZ clarified that his Twitter handle is @EzMil27 with the profile pic being a character from the anime Demon Slayer.
He also mentioned during the media conference that a collaborative work of his with a other artist is set to drop on February 21st.
So, for anyone who wants to book EZ Mil, his fellow hip-hop artist HBOM Segovia as well as his mom, Hazel Marin Miller, are his main managers. Glichen Magallanes is his main manager and for business inquiries, one can email hbomlive@gmail.com.
