Eamon

People are often frowned upon when they say profanities and vulgar words .But not in the case of American rapper Eamon. Eamon became famous in 2004 for his controversial hit single Fuck It (I Don't Want You Back) which placed number 1 in the US, UK, Australia, New Zealand, Sweden and Italy. The song eventually earned a place in the Guinness World Records for the most expletives in a #1 song.

About

Eamon Doyle (pronounced Ay-Mon) was born on May 6, 1984 in Staten Island, New York. He started singing when he was nine years old and was discovered by songwriter/producer Milk Dee when he was fifteen.

Eamon was eventually signed by Jive Records and in 2003 he released his debut single Fuck It (I Don't Want You Back). The single should have been like any other song about an ex-lover who was two-timing the singer, but what set it apart was the un-edited profanities. It was so shockingly raw and new that it took the world by storm. It even had an Italian version entitled Solo. Because of the unexpected success, Eamon soon released his debut album I Don’t Want You Back which reached gold in the U.S. and U.K.

In 2006, Eamon released his second album Love & Pain with its carrier single (How Could You) Bring Him Home.
