Artist Interview: Elbeezie

Tell us about yourself and your music

I’m Elliotte Butler, 23yrs old I was born in New Iberia, Louisiana and I go by the name of Elbeezie Bee. I Discover music when I was 11yrs old and I started singing in the choir at St. Mark babtist church where I discover our piano player was The King of Down South R&B music Bryson Bernard known as Cupid who really shown me what music is about. Seeing the gift he has motivated me to become the person I am today and for rap I’ve always been into Lil Wayne & Boosie they taught me the aspects of life and how to become successful and true to who I am. Music brings the best out of me when no one or nothing can. It truly brings out a genuine side of me that is persistent and unstoppable yet lovable and fun. If it wasn’t for music I wouldn’t be the person I am today honestly it changed me and taught me how to see things a different way and now I finally understand when they say music is your mind, heart and soul literally.

 

Talk to us more about your latest release

My latest release was an outstanding and amazing project, it brings a different vybe, sound and taste to music back when there was music you can actually feel through the radio and tv.

My latest release “It Ain’t Ova” I did to simply to encourage those who are actually after something and just can’t quit understanding whatever you want to do you its literally all up to you and basically its never over unless you say so or quit but the meaning of this song is to give you motivation if you feel as if you can’t go on no matter what your going through dont let no one stop you nor get In you way, stay focus and pray cause its the key that helps me when I feel I can’t go no more and took too much of a beating realizing that the beating does nothing but make you me strong. It also teaches to put away the foolishness and think about you for once and care less about what anyone thinks. I like to also thank my producer Steve who remixed and mastered this track and brought alive.

 

 

What inspired you to write this release?

What inspired me the most is my kids when writing these tracks including this one because everything I do is for then being that I’m 23 yrs old and bless with 3 beautiful kids I had to apply all my focus and pour out my heart in this track so they and this world can endure the love I have being that I can’t physically show it to them like I want cause I’m always one the move wanting to provide for them being that is my job. I love my kids and each day they inspires me to become a better father, brother and friend.
