LAID ENT is an entertainment group that consists of four multi-talented artists including Phillip Ajayi (aka PJ), Rahzil Blackwell (aka Rahzil), Langston Williams (aka Breezy B), and Desmond Bonds (aka Lil’ Dez).
Although each artist originates from different walks of life, destiny brought this group together. Establishing themselves in the southern part of Arlington, Texas, the group created quite a local buzz from their early hits such as “Louder” and “Hear the Rain.” The young music group has come quite a long way from producing their “High School hits” until now.
Music has greatly attributed to the lives of each member starting from a very ripe and tender age. PJ and Rahzil grew up playing piano and singing in the church, which reflects in the soulful R&B music the singing duo puts out. Although the singers’ voices differ in tone, this common upbringing allows these two to collaborate on songs in a smooth and indistinguishable way. On the other side, through the gift of dance and rhythm, Lil’ Dez and Breezy B have been competing in dance competitions and shows from the time the born performers began to walk. Not too long after, the two soon-to-be rappers picked up the mic and began putting lyrics together with their uncanny styles of rhythm and poetry. After the team came together, avenues began to open up for the group to participate in various performances, live concerts, show openings, dance competitions ,rap battles, talent shows, club performances, etc.
LAID ENT wants to continue to record and release their own music on a world wide scale to promote positivity to the masses. Their goal is to inspire the upcoming generation to become leaders in our society and demonstrate that with determination they can become anything they put their minds to. LAID ENT also promotes music that any and everyone can relate to, from the youth all the way up to the elderly. The group often states they would like to put out music “even their own mothers could listen to” unlike most of the commercial music that’s out right now.
LAID ENT’s music is influenced by many veteran artists who have paved the way for our younger generation of hip hop, so they consider it a duty to pay homage through their music. LAID wants to bring back “real” music, something we lack today due to companies whose main concern is to make profit rather than release substantial music. These influences include Tupac Shakur, Biggie Smalls, Eminem, Music Soulchild, as well as newer artists like Drake, Kendrick Lamar, and J Cole.
The music group stands out from other artists because not only can they make good music, but they are born entertainers. Aside from the advanced lyrical content and extremely contagious melodies, the crew can dance, perform, sing, & play live instruments all exceptionally well. Each artist is a leader and they all take initiative to better themselves in all areas of their talents. This allows them to rapidly improve since each of them is continuously challenged by one another. Their appeal also helps them substantially in reaching out to the female demographic.
