Subliminal Messages Productions
Elliott A. Smith A.K.A "E.T" is a talented up & coming producer/songwriter that has set forth a plan to recreate this thing we called hip-hop. As a former college student E.T. knows and understands the power of faith, attitude and determinations. Classically trained in the piano and other instruments like the saxophone, trumpet, acoustic guitar and bass guitar since age 5. Elliott has seen the ups and downs of underground hip-hop and trying to make it happen on his on and with others of like minds. He has both won and lost studio/songwriting battles across the country, sold and given away CDs. But through it all has gained respect from his peers for his rare sounds and unique technics and his never given up attitude. E.T. has produced for several local artist in the past (Vega Tigarrius, E-Cal, DeathToll Record out of Phoenix, LimeLight Records (based out of Detroit) and others around the country. Having never been signed to a major contract (for lack of interest by the majors) he decided to take it upon himself and create his own label"Subliminal Messages Productions". This discussions has allowed him to engage with other producers/songwriters who have there foot in the door and have been given a chance just to be heard by some of thr top MCees in the country dictated by a team of investors. The key to E.T.'s music is that it does the talking for him has release instrumental and background tracks that sooth you and can make you get crunk if need be. BE LOOKING OUT FOR FIRST SOLO ALBUM!
