Ernesto Edwards., better known by his stage name Nesto The Owner is an American rapper from Philadelphia, Pennsylvannia. He is a fellow collaborator with other local artist Tech N9NE, Kutt Calhoun and Mac Letal.

CAREER KILLER After Edwards' father died, Edwards and his brother remained in an unfamiliar, landlocked city far from the hardscrabble blocks and streetwise grit of their former home. Their primary pastime was rap. Edwards' brother, who began beatboxing when the two were young, provided the production behind his younger brother's rhymes: a partnership that continues on Edwards' latest project, Career Killer. Despite his wickedness on wax, Edwards hopes that people will catch on to his charm. "I'm a feel-good person," he says. "I'm rich off life."

CAREER KILLER 2 Nesto the Owner is one of the finest lyricists in Kansas City, and the fact that he's originally from Philadelphia shouldn't stop Kansas City from claiming him. But with his second major release in less than a year, Nesto is still fighting for the attention of the city's radio stations, DJs and hip-hop fans. On Career Killer II, Nesto fights the hard fight. He means to elevate battle rap's shit-talk to the sustained artistry of making albums. Many battle rappers have failed to cast off enough dead weight from their backpacks to leap from the streets onto wax. But Career Killer II eclipses its predecessor, Career Killer, with the breadth of its vision. Tracks such as "Suffering," "New New" and "Man in My City" merge Nesto's fondness for puns and metaphors with a concern for the larger themes of individual struggle and the tenuous relationship of a Philly transplant to the city he now represents. In a rarity for underground releases, this diverse collection of club bangers and aggressive loops shines with a polish to match Nesto's talent.

BAD SEASON The mixtape features guest appearances from Krizz Kaliko, Kutt Calhoun, Jay Rock, Big Scoob, Oobergeek, Irv Da Phenom, Nesto and others.
