## ***Blood Sucker*** EP by Elita

**Blood Sucker** is the second extended play (EP) by Elita. It was released on May 1st, 2020 on YouTube and was later released on all streaming platforms a few days later.

## Background

On October 11th and November 29th, 2019, Elita has stated that she had started working on some new music and music videos. On December 15th, 2019, Elita posted on her story that she would be releasing a new EP, confirming that the songs for the EP had already been written, however they needed to be recorded before being officially released to the public, and on the same story she had also said that it was going to be released in 2020.

On March 12th, 2020, Elita posted a photo of her and her boyfriend with a caption that confirmed that the EP will have 5 tracks. In the comments of the same post, Elita said that 3 of the songs on the tracklist will have necklaces.

Elita posted a video of her playing with a knife on March 21st, along with a caption that confirmed the tracklist for the EP, while on her story the same day she confirmed the EP's title and revealed the release date would be soon.

On both of Elita's Instagram pages on May 1st, 2020 (@yungelita & @elitamusic), she posted the picture of the cover with the caption "BLOOD SUCKER 🏰 MAY 1" and announced the EP's title, although the one on her main page was censored due to she thought people would judge it. On her main Instagram she played some of the new music and showed the uploaded files of the songs on the service she uses for her music, along with the same caption as on the post.

After Elita announced the EP's title and cover, she kept posting how many days were left until the EP was to be released on her Instagram story.

On April 25th, 2020 she announced that there would be a music video for the song "R.I.P." coming on May 5th, along with a new necklace design of a dagger. Earlier in the comments of the *Blood Sucker* post on her Instagram, she confirmed to a fan that there will be three music videos for the EP.

On April 30th, 2020 Elita announced on her Instagram story that the EP will be pushed back due to the company that distributes her music (CDBaby) not yet confirming it to be on streaming services and will be delayed a few days, but it was later uploaded onto to YouTube by Elita (without "Breaking Bones") before being officially out on all platforms.
