Life & Work with Eden Denton of Grand Rapids, MI

Today we’d like to introduce you to Eden Denton.

Eden, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
My story! Starts with a highschool dropout (who could have gone to college anywhere for soccer or baseball, and he sings like Robert Plant. My dad rocks don’t get me wrong) He was panicking after impregnating my 20 year old mother and I was born in 1993. My grandparents helped raise me and influenced my character very much over the years. I loved helping raise my siblings, even my mom fondly agrees that my siblings are “my kids”. My dad has six kids. They are the biggest blessing from my parents no doubt. I gave birth to a beautiful girl in 2014 and currently I’m fighting for her first amendment right. She should be in therapy and she hasn’t been. I am preparing a child custody case to address several forms of child abuse I’ve had to document over the years. Her Dad is a great dad but his wife is the one I have been dealing with technically abusing my child. Brainwashing, malicious parental syndrome, parental alienation and sexual exploitation of a child via family showers that were happening with her dad his wife and their toddler son up until she turned 7 and told me about this. I have to fight for her safety and mental wellbeing. I’ve already decided this is the only way to certify the safety of my daughter and her future- build my platform and continue to stand in a place of love for my daughter. Her psychological well being is already being comprimised with the extreme parental alienation that’s been happening for 6 years now. My whole family is missing my daughter. She has cousins she has never met. My family is everything to me so this wall of no contact with my daughter has me shook to my core. Everything else is coming after me prioritizing my finances, physical health and of course my sobriety. I’m finally working with a great therapist and being re-evaluated for medication now that I am out of active addiction. My recovery started 10/5/2023 and I highly recommend praying for help and guidance to anyone trying to get sober. I want to eventually become a recovery coach because even in two decades of active addiction I was always encouraging people to get off the streets, get a better life, try to quit using. I love tarot cards and yoga and crystals and I can’t wait to share more magic with my daughter once we reconnect- she calls herself my witch in training and says she is a new species. She’s perfect. On Instagram her hashtag is #MeadowEverly and I’m getting #FREEMEADOWEVERLY merch started, shirts have been ordered. Andrew Walton designed the graphic art of me and my daughter. She deserves a first amendment right even as a child and that’s what I’m still fighting for.
Preorders available at [email protected] for shirts!

In 2020 the police gave me brain damage. I had been walking down a residential sidewalk when two officers ran up on me slamming my forehead into the sidewalk. I was unconscious without medical attention for 8+ hours. GRPD and KCFF / Kent County scared away every attorney I hired trying to help me get some justice for the police brutality I endured.. Grand Rapids Michigan is very corrupt and up until I finished parole I was afraid for my life. His wife has a father who lost his sherriff badge sometime between now and my injury. Her stability has been rocked with them forcing what they think is normal to my little girl, who I know just wants to make people who love her happy. My dad was just like Meadow’s dad and he’s the reason I confused fear and love for so long. My daughter is not going to have daddy issues. I’m fighting for that. I’m trying to make it so bad but I’m sick of my life being endangered by other rappers- I’m sick of having such a target on me simply for my love of music. Music has been something so broad that multiple predators are in the industry still- look at what happened with Diddy. It’s a mix of rape culture and sheer ignorance being rampant in this country and the industry is flooded with shitty people who happen to make music. At one point I was managing around 40 rappers in Grand Rapids Michigan and most of those people are either dead or in prison now. Very few artists have successfully entered recovery the way I have and sustained sobriety.
Next year it will be $1,000 to make music with my name attached- my beats that I produce my lyrics whatever-
ANGUISH FAMILY is my global team – I promote and support Star Fkid Ellie and my only other employee right now is Jeremy Smith. We have ambassadors and artists we work with remotely all over the country. I started 616 Music LLC as a music label until I’m juggling a list of 40-60 people who want me as their manager and people are dying and going to prison left and right. I was briefly Hostile Records then pitched the whole label idea and went nonprofit.
I am still seeking two other people to certify Anguish Family as a 501c3 so we can be tax exempt and eligible for unlimited grants from the government we could use to help the community. I want to do that in Traverse City my hometown, then Grand Rapids and hopefully all the efforts of me and my team go towards raising the vibration of humanity as a whole. The whole world is waking up it’s very painful. Almost 6 years into the awakening of the divine feminine spirit.
I want our president dead. I want the fear matrix shattered. I want to be safe. I want to be a mom and I know I’m a good one. I am a violent criminal on paper. But the law doesn’t make sense so I don’t care what the government has to say…
I just started working with Gametime Ent. A company based out of Muskegon Heights and I am working with Tee Da God currently and Big Rueb (Ruben Bruton). I also hope to work with Sam Savage this next year and release some songs I have vocals on with him. At least 1!
Since I was a teenager I’ve had a passion for speaking out against any injustice I see. This country is a mess. I wish I could make more of a difference. My only weapon is my voice and I am here to heal. We could have a peaceful revolution with music and farming. That’s how we win. Live sustainably and thrive. It’s a time to honor our roots.

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Being a woman in general.
Technology.
Law enforcement in Michigan.
Domestic violence and abuse
Poverty – I am 32 and I’m still waiting for a time in life where me and everyone I know is not worried about MONEY.

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
Recently a friend told me that my networking skills are “without paralell”. I love people and I love connection. I love the truth and knowledge and learning. I value what I say and accountability is extremely important to me, people come to me because they know I will tell them the truth. I love helping people. I love my family and I treat the people I work with like family. I think what sets me apart from others is that I am not afraid of anything. I am blunt and honest to a fault. I have actively had to speak out against dangerous people in the past- I started a page on Facebook called Stop Traffick. We expose predators. I’m a felon for self defense. I am a protector. Most criminals don’t get caught and predators are everywhere. Picture your daughter or something meets somebody but she wants to check Stop Traffick. To make sure he isn’t listed as being a known dangerous person. We cover most of Michigan. Grand Rapids and Traverse City are full of ambassadors of Anguish Family.

Alright, so to wrap up, is there anything else you’d like to share with us?
I’m on all platforms under EDBD music, I haven’t even started rapping yet. Just been practicing. I make beats and play piano bass and guitar as well. I work hard because I want my daughter to be proud of me someday and know that women can do anything they want. I am always here to listen and if you think you’re stuck you’re not. We have to manifest the lives we deserve. That’s what I’m trying to do!
