About Me

They come from afar to expand your ears. And who are they? E.T. is EQ and Tislam. Do to time and time again performing together and having like interest in music the two became the group E.T. The name is more than just the first letters of their names. They feel like aliens in the scene of HipHop. They stand out with their unique style of expression lyrically but their talent expands beyond just their lyrics.

Due to the fact that so many artists follow a set structure of style they fell like they're from another planet in the scene of HipHop. E.T. is boundless in their topics and vocabulary while still keeping the original BOOM BAP sound they love. They are unlike most others who claim to be of the same art and fashion.

E.T. brings a consistent sound tailored to the greats that they grew up on. You get innovative expression of experiences that they have witness in their travels together and on their own. And they also provide thought provoking images of real life ideas of their own. E.T. says "Its like no matter how much we go threw when we finally get settled and write we blink and the song is done. And it’s never just some thrown together garbage. We create quality music that needs to be heard."

Even though this group is still fresh they have open for many well-known underground artists. Such as Stones Throw Records(Madlib, Peanut Butter Wolf, Oh No, Roc ‘C’, MED, Guilty Simpson, J Rocc, Percee P), Karieem Riggins, J-Live, Black Milk, Little Brother, Del The Funky Homosapien, Devin The Dude, Vast Aire, Phat Kat, Jean Grae, Diverse, Mr. Lif, Akrobatic, Q-Unique, Royce Da 5'9", Slum Village, and One Be Lo. E.T. also has had the pleasure of opening for internationally known HipHop group De La Soul & one of the father's of HipHop KRS-ONE.

This group also performed at the First Baltimore Music Conference 2005 and 2006. But they are not limited to just the city of Baltimore. This group performed at Styles In Progress 2005 in Toronto, Canada. Also E.T. has blessed stages of surrounding cities and states. E.T. doesn’t just do it for money and fame neither. They have done the Community Action Festival 2005 and other fundraising events for The Village Learning Place.

E.T. is finishing the mastering of the album called "INVASION". Each also has a solo album in the works and a sequel to add to the movement.

E.T. has landed and the invasion has already begun.
