E-Turn E-Turns diverse background in music stems from a lifelong
journey through Persian vocals, tribal drumming, poetry, and lyrical
Jazz. With family members well versed in these arts, E-Turn was raised
to bring a unique, well-rounded, and worldly sound to Hip Hop. Greatly
influenced by icons like Nas, Tupac, Lauryn Hill, Sade, and A Tribe
Called Quest, E-Turns sound echoes the essence of true Hip Hop, and
masterfully bridges the gap between staccato rap and soulful vocals.
