Palm Coast resident Elliot Green, aka Young Man Pit, will open for Snoop Dog 6 p.m. Thursday, May 3, at the Sunfest 2012 music festival in West Palm Beach.
“This opportunity has made me more confident and has let me know all the hard work of making music every day has not only paid off but shows that the talent that I believe I have is there and others recognize it,” said Green, who will also perform at the festival with rapper Wiz Khalifa.
Describing himself as “an artist that represents the change in music as we know (it),” Green says he started rapping at the age of 7, in the “boogie-down” borough of the Bronx, where he developed his ability to freestyle. His parents were also both rap artists.
Green moved from inner-city New York to Palm Coast suburbs during high school After graduation from Flagler Palm Coast High, he began assembling a team of producers from across the country to hone his sound.
“Living in the south helped me expand to not just being a rapper, but being a musician,” he said.
He also currently works for 5-Linx in Palm Coast.
“Me and my team are ready and excited for this Sunfest ride and will do our best and have a great time doing it,” Green added.
