Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use American English Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox musical artist Arthur Lee "Archie" Eversole (July 26, 1984 – April 3, 2022) was an American rapper best known for his 2002 single "We Ready".
Early life
Eversole was born in Germany while his military parents were stationed in the country.[1] His parents would move to College Park, Georgia, where he was raised.[2]
Career
Eversole recorded his lone full-length album, Ride Wit Me Dirty South Style, when he was seventeen years old. It was first released in 2001 by independent label Phat Boy Records and then rereleased by MCA Records in 2002, peaking at #83 on the Billboard 200[3] and #16 on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums.[4] The featured single, "We Ready", contained a sample of the 1969 Steam song "Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye". Though it only reached #64 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart,[2] the track proved popular in the sports world, as it was included in promotional material for the National Football League[5] and was played during home matches of the Major League Soccer club Atlanta United, while the Kansas City Royals adopted it as their anthem for their 2014 MLB postseason campaign.[6] A music video was filmed for a remix of the song that featured Bubba Sparxxx.
In 2018, Eversole recorded "United We Conquer", a fight song dedicated to Atlanta United.[7]
Death
On March 25, 2022, Eversole was found by police at a Decatur gas station with a gunshot wound to his face. He said that someone had broken into his bedroom and shot him while he was asleep.[8] Eversole was hospitalized but died from his injuries at age 37 on April 3. His brother, Alexander Krause, was arrested at Eversole's home and charged with murder after officers had noticed bloodstains on his socks.[8][9]
