Eric Hans Schaefer (born August 14, 1988) better known by his stage name Eric the Prince, is an American rapper from Honolulu, Hawaii. He released his first album, Father Nature, in 2010.

Early life

Schaefer grew up in an upper-middle class family in the Rolling Hills Estates area of California. He moved to Hawaii at thirteen where he attended Kaiser High School, and then the University of Hawaii.

Career

As an entrepreneur, he ran a luxury rental company, performed stand-up comedy, and ran a prayer channel. He wrote his first album while attending Pacific Rim College, but the house he was renting burned down in 2009, killing two of his roommates.[2] After which he went on tour around the United States and Israel, when he returned he lived in West Hollywood at the Sunset Marquis meeting and mingling with many superstars and with the 2015 American Idol contestants, and recorded frequently with Tupac’s main producer, Tommy Daugherty of Death Row Records. Eric left LA and returned to Hawaii, going by Eric the Prince instead of Pure Pressure and started to collaborate with local artists. He also ran the website Rap.com which had major success until the owners of the domain who leased it out to him took back the domain to try and sell the domain name for millions of dollars.

Eric left LA and returned to Hawaii, going by Eric the Prince instead of Pure Pressure and rose to fame locally as he started to perform all over Oahu and collaborate with local Hawaii Hip Hop and Reggae artists.  Eric has since shot a music video with CJ Fiya, a local prominent Hip Hop artist in Hawaii, who has performed with ASAP FERG, CURREN$y, and Lil Wyte.  CJ Fiya performs often with Willy G who is also another Hawaii Hip Hop artist. Eric gained even more recognition in Hawaii after he performed at Hawaii’s major venue, the Blaisedale, during the Hottest Import Nights event, and by then he had already performed at dozens of other venues in Hawaii  and had been brought on the be interviewed on the radio in Hawaii at KTUH.

 

Personal life

Because Eric’s parents are both doctors, Eric has studied the healing properties of sound frequencies and harp music and layers his music with those healing sounds and plays them while he’s performing.  He is married to Ashley Danielle Schaefer, and lives in Honolulu.  He is working on several books and apps, websites, and uploading prayer videos to his prayer channel on YouTube.

My mission statement is to showcase to the world where it’s hurting and  how love can be the answer to all of our relational issues, and to  reveal the damaging aspects of pride and narcissism and to highlight the  highest aspects of humanity truly helping the world discover that we  are made in the Image of God.  To build a team of like-minded  individuals who can carry my arms as Joseph and Aaron held Moses’ arms  up on the day of battle, those who can be like Moses’ uncle and help me  find the team that can help me accomplish the God-given vision, for a  Pharaoh like individual to give me the signet ring of the Kingdom, and  for a Nathan and Samuel to keep me in check and to speak the Word of the  LORD to me, for a best friend like Jonathan and a mentor like the  Apostle Paul, for a team of disciples and travel companions and for a  team with talents necessary for the greater goals to be accomplished,  and to believe that God has these things planned for me and to prepare  by prayer and taking action, video messages, and posts, software and  building capital, kickstarters and iPad Swipers, through tools of the  trade and through principles of those who’ve succeeded in raising  capital as well as creating things worth investing in, and investing in  things that have great return.  To act as if I was married and to speak  to that one as if she was the world to me with complete intimacy, to  break all negative soul ties, and to create the ideal environment  capable of bringing me to where I want to be, having complete creative  freedom for my style and ward-robe as well as to create custom clothes  and to image stream daily and have assistants take action on it.  To  have a residual income high enough to be the Target Daily Income for my 3  month and 6 month dreamliners based on my 5 and 10 year goals.

About

I’m Eric, I’m from California originally but I moved to Hawaii when I was 12. My grandpa was best friends with a man who started the company Travcoa, and now I run a Tourism Company in Hawaii called Angel Concierge, I’m an artist, going by the name of Eric the Prince, and I also run a website called the Prayer Pharmacy. I was on Family Feud, as part of the first family flying in from Hawaii to be on the show, and I also have performed at over a thousand venues, sold over 30,000 CDs, and I have acted and done modeling, built hundreds of websites for people, and have sold quite a lot of tickets, merchandise, and services of third-party service providers. I am here to help you make money, I am looking to go on tour and perform at music festivals and be involved in the marketing of the festival as well as collaborate with other major artists. I am looking to read for speaking roles in movies and fly out to act in them, and I am also working with my team to build the best place to book Hawaii tours and activities and connect with travel guides. Also I am working with artists to build websites for them and help them achieve their dreams, and my biggest dream of all is to run one of the top record labels and have a base in Sydney, Australia.

Tell us about yourself and your music.
I’m Eric. I go by Eric the Prince, it’s a play on Prince Eric from the little mermaid because I am from the middle of the sea.
How would you describe your sound?
I’d describe it as uplifting, dominating, victorious.
Talk about the experience making your song/mixtape.
I would say it’s been quite the experience learning how to mix and engineer songs, working with almost every studio in Hawaii, and working with lots of other artists. The egos are hard to deal with sometimes, but I’ve learned enough to now know how to get the whole process up. I’ve got a bunch of collaborations I am doing, and in Hawaii it’s important to merge the fan-bases of several artists because the scene is small out here and the reggae shows are getting a lot more turn out than the hip hop shows, so I try to branch the two, collaborating with major reggae bands is something that’s still on my list, I do have a couple songs that are reggae inspired though.
What are you currently working on? Any new projects? Shows?
Trust album, something huge to release after “Family Feud”. Working on local shows, performed at Blaisedale, Waikiki Shell, and countless other venues on island recently did a show at Hawaiian Brians.
What has been your biggest highlight in your music career this far?
Being able to be picked to be on “Family Feud” because of a rap I did, and being able to rap on “Family Feud.”
Name your ideal collaboration: mainstream or independent artist(s).
Anything with Logic, G Eazy, Drake, Riff Raff, or Bieber.
Name something random that people do not know about you.
I lived in Israel for a year.
What’s one thing you have learned or discovered while being in the indie music scene/industry?
It will go as far as you take it, you’ve got to get in the face of the people who can make a difference… the whole thing is about complaining to the right people. Some people complain to others when they should be complaining to God, dumping their concerns and frustrations on Him so that He can take care of it, same thing with record label executives – you gotta get in their face, show them what you want, ask big, and never give up. It’s the same as sales.
What can we expect from you in the future?
Big collaborations with major artists, charity projects and albums, traveling worldwide.
Anything else you would like to share with our readers?
I have a YouTube Channel all about prayer its called the Prayer Doctor you should check it out, it’s very powerful.
