by Howard Campbell

[LOS ANGELES] – Elevate, the new album from deejay E-Dee, was released May 9. It is the Los Angeles-based artist’s third album and like his previous efforts, is produced by QMillion.

He is currently promoting the song, Everytime I See You. E-Dee, who is also an actor, is eager to get his music in movies which introduces him to a wider audience.

“I don’t have to have a hit single to release an album because the majority of my tracks are already been placed in films and television. There are a few tracks on the album that have over a million streams already, so I’m tying the movie audience with my music audience,” he said.

Elevate contains collaborations with Glen Washington (Where I Belong), and Ghetto Yutes Rise with I-Octane.
