I. Elijah Baughman was bitten by the acting bug around the age of 5 years old. It began with movies like Star Wars, Gremlins & Ghostbusters. Than later on went into a love of television; where he started watching the sitcom: "Golden Girls" with his mother (whom he credits as one of his greatest inspirations in pursing performing arts). He started singing at about 8 years old, and credits the "Bell Biv DeVoe" Song: 'Poison' & medleys by Sebastian the Crab from "The Little Mermaid" as some of the first songs he was able to mimic verbatim.

He's always had a great knack for learning; and as English was his best subject in school, he began writing poetry at 12 years old. Soon thereafter, he became inspired by the then emerging Hip Hop culture, and began fusing his musical, rhythmic, literary & poetic skills to become the dynamic MC/Lyricist that he is today (Under the guise of: Elijah McCoy). He was the top Performing Arts student his senior year in High School; winning awards for: Choir, Theater & Performing Arts along with the Top English Student honor.

From there, he graduated under Cum Laude Status, accumulating a 3.5 GPA as he earned his Bachelors of Science (B.S.) Degree in Business Management. As his artist's journey continues, he has aspirations of focusing his business management degree on many more endeavors in the Entertainment industry. Elijah strives not only to entertain...But also to educate anyone willing to listen & learn...To provide inspiration, encouragement & empowerment...But most of all healing in anyone his artistry touches.
