}}Edan Portnoy (born 1978[2]), better known as Edan, is an American hip hop artist from Rockville, Maryland.[2]

Life and career

Born Edan Portnoy to middle class immigrant parents, he grew up in Rockville, Maryland.[3] In high school, he bought his first turntables and started mixing beats.[3] Inspired by his classmate's rhymes, he started writing his own songs.[3] After graduation, he entered Berklee College of Music, where he spent two and a half years.[3] He dropped out of the college to focus on music full time.[3]

Edan released his first solo album, Primitive Plus, on Lewis Recordings in 2002.[4] It was described by The A.V. Club as "one of the year's most promising debuts".[5] In that year, he also released an EP, Sprain Your Tapedeck.[6] In 2005, he released his second solo album, Beauty and the Beat.[7] In 2009, he released a 29-minute mixtape, Echo Party.[8][9][10] It peaked at number 98 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.[11] In 2018, he released a collaborative album with rapper Homeboy Sandman, titled Humble Pi, on Stones Throw Records.[12]
