EPMD is an American hip hop group from Brentwood, New York. The group's name is a concatenation of the members' name "E" and "PMD" or an acronym for "Erick and Parrish Making Dollars", referencing its members, emcees Erick Sermon ("E" aka E Double) and Parrish J Smith ("PMD" aka Parish Mic Doc). Though, during an interview on college radio station WHOV in 1987, Parrish Smith stated, " We were originally known as "EEPMD" (Easy Erick and Parrish the Microphone Doctor), but chose to go with EPMD because it was easier to say." He also stated that another reason they dropped the two "E's" was because N.W.A.'s Eric Wright, was already using "Eazy-E" as his stage name. The group has been active for years (minus two breakups in 1993 and 1999), and is one of the most prominent acts in east coast hip hop. Diamond J, DJ K La Boss, and DJ Scratch were DJs for the group. The word "business" is used in every title of the group's albums. Every album also has a track titled "Jane".
