It's Been 2 Long ( Takin' Rap ) It's Been 2 Long ( Takin' Rap )
This is something of a mission statement for us. It was the second song we ever recorded back in 2000. But it still hits today.
What up to all our peoples throughout the globe. You've entered into the world of E.L.P.T., a rap group consisting of two male artists. We formed in late 1999 and began recording in 2000. By late 2000, we began to travel with former Jive recording artist,"B.B. Jay", with whom we gained an extensive amount of experience in the music industry. By 2002 we formed our own company(E.T. Entertainment), and were back home and began to record our debut release. But due to various circumstances our recording process was stalled at certain times, putting a halt on our project. But in the spring of 2004 we regained momentum to finish recording our album. Our debut release,"The Foundation", is now complete and is available at selected retailers (CDBaby.com, Tower.com). "The Foundation" is an album that's personal for E.L.P.T. in many respects. The album speaks of the obstacles they went through when they quit their jobs to do music full time, their personal feelings on what they've seen take place in the streets, and in the world in general. Also, they speak on the need for change in their lives, and the struggles they go through to continue to do what they know is right. "The Foundation", is a well rounded album with a little bit of something for everyone on it.
What you can expect from our music is uniqueness and creativity coupled with tight production and well thought out lyrics. We choose not to brag about how hot we are, we instead let the listeners decide. Because too many times people have done so, and when you finally hear them you say to yourself,"you gotta be kidding!". So you be the judge.
We invite you to take a look around through our pages, listen to our music, e-mail us, or leave a message with us on our message board to tell us what you think. Check in with us frequently, as well be adding songs to our track list.Band/artist history
