When two worlds collide, they usually spark a wave of creativity that is unlike any other. This is the story of @ETBoysOfficial, a duo of brothers hailing from SoFlo, Miami, and creating a name for themselves in the music industry. Their unique blend of sound — a genre they’ve dubbed as Nu Pop Melodic Rap, has started to define a new era of music.
The duo comprises two Latino brothers, Tacboy and Sharkeyes, each with their own unique brilliance. Tacboy, the lead singer and lyricist, crafts magic with his words and melodies against Sharkeyes’ compositions. Born in Chicago but now residing in Miami, they reached a turning point in their musical journey when they began creating songs together, amassing over 30 tracks in under two years!
Perhaps one of their striking qualities is their commitment to the group and their work. As brothers, the ET Boys have a bond that cannot be broken. This is particularly promising in a world where inter-band feuds are a common occurrence. In contrast, their partnership is a bedrock of trust and mutual respect.
Their debut album, “Forever Night”, released in November 2022, is a testament to this spirit. Since its release, it has amassed over 2 million streams on Spotify alone, which is a remarkable accomplishment for a new band. Their song “wyrm” (Will You Remember Me) incredibly hit #3 on the global DRT Independent Chart.
The ET Boys have encountered the usual challenges that new artists face, from establishing their unique sound to gaining recognition amidst a sea of talented musicians. But they’ve embraced these obstacles with a cheer and treated them as steps toward success.
Their individual talents also contribute to their unique vibe. Tacboy, an IMG professional model in NYC, enchants with his captivating looks and musical talent. Simultaneously, Sharkeyes, with his prolific composing skills, ensures there is never a shortage of material to work on.
In the creative process, the brothers often find cultural icons popping up unwittingly in their art. Whether it’s a line paying tribute to Scottie Pippen or channeling James Douglas Morrison, these cultural references resonate with their fans and add an unexpected twist to their music.
As 2024 unfolds, the ET Boys are gearing up for an action-packed year. They’re planning for more releases, more videos, and are even venturing into live shows in the summer, which would provide their fans with an immersive experience of their music. Their dreams are big, and their passion and drive match those dreams.
In essence, the ET Boys are a breath of fresh air in the music industry. Their determination, talent, and unique sound set them apart from others. They are always innovating, always creating, and just getting started!
