Guest Biography

My name is Ethan Rice, I am from Van Buren Arkansas. I play multiple instruments including Guitar, Drums, & Piano. I have been doing music since the age of 12, then started writing music at 13. My history in the music would have to start with competitions. I competed in a local battle of the bands which really sparked my passion for music. I started writing hip hop/Rap at the age of 18 & got serious at 21. I Chose the name "Polo The Thrill" because I was given the nickname Polo in high school from fellow classmates because I made many purchases & wearing the name brand Ralph Lauren Polo clothing line & added "The Thrill" because of my stage presence when I performed.

I have performed at multiple Clubs, Venues, Restaurants/Bar, in the past year including El Far West (Fort Smith Ar), El Azteca (Fort Smith Ar), La Rumba (Fort Smith Ar), Heros Bar (Fort Smith Ar), Summer Jam ( 2013 Fort Smith Riverfront), Golden Goose (Fort Smith Ar), Angels Bar (Tulsa OK), Dixon Theater (Fayetteville Ar), Chancellor Hotel (Fayetteville Ar) Club Lush (Fayetteville Ar), Hooters (Fort Smith Ar) & Paradygm Shyft ( Fort Smith Ar). I have done multiple charity events including raising money for local tragedies, Fight Against Abused Women, and Toys For Tots.

I have been working with producer R.O.M. from Dudley Britain. He produced my first project the "Dreamer EP" which is a 8 track R&B/Rap EP and is currently producing my second project "Manifestation LP". I've performed with such artist as Young Nation, Kid Ink, Lil Flip, Twista, Lil Ronnie, & J Holiday. The progress that I have made in a year has shaken Fort Smith, Arkansas. I can see signs from my blow out year which I believe has made other artist in the River Valley push themselves even harder. I started a team called "Cold Motivation Music Group" that consist of multiple artist with the same goals & passion for music & entertainment. Artist include Q Mann, D Wudd, & Ba$h. The utmost Love & Appreciation goes out to those who have followed & supported me as I've progressed through the game of Hip Hop.
