Music Artist Eamon
Eamon Doyle (born circa 1984), professionally known as Eamon, is an American pop and R&B singer and songwriter.
Early years
Eamon was born in Staten Island, New York. His father was a member of a doo wop group. He began singing at the age of nine and at the age of fifteen, he caught the attention of songwriter/producer Milk Dee who had worked with musicians such as MC Lyte, Janet Jackson, and Mary J. Blige. Dee and his co-producer Mark Passy helped refine Eamon's sound. Eamon was eventually signed to Jive Records.
Eamon's debut single, "I Don't Want You Back" immediately caught the attention of urban, rhythmic, and pop radio stations when it was released in the U.S. in late 2003 due to its stripped down production and edited profanities about an ex-lover who was two-timing the singer. Jive fast tracked the release of a music video for the song and commissioned an album for release in early 2004. The single reached the top 20 of the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, and the popularity of the song helped his album, I Don't Want You Back, debut in the top 10 of the U.S. Billboard 200. The success of the song prompted Jive to release the song internationally where it reached number-one in the UK, Australia, New Zealand, and Sweden.
The success of the single and the controversial nature of its lyrics prompted production of an answer single, "F.U.R.B", by unknown female singer Frankee who had claimed to be Eamon's ex-girlfriend. The song also earned Eamon a Guinness World Record for "the most expletives in a #1 song".
After the sucess of "F It", Eamon released a second single, "I Love Them Ho's (Ho-Wop)", however it did not perform well on the charts.
Eamon returned in 2006 with a new single titled "(How Could You) Bring Him Home". His second album is expected to be released in late 2006.
