El explains how his brother Chico had to coax him into actually recording his classic "Time Will Reveal" and speaks on his struggle with drugs over the years. Cutting to the chase, I'll just say that El performs "Time Will Reveal" while simultaneously playing the piano around the nine-minute mark. He sounds absolutely amazing.
Eldra Patrick "El" DeBarge is an American R&B and soul falsetto singer and was the focal point and lead singer of the family group DeBarge throughout the early to mid-1980s. As a solo artist, he is best known for the hits "Who's Johnny" and "Love Always" and for his collaborations with Tone Loc, Quincy Jones, Fourplay and DJ Quik.
By the time El Debarge closed his set with “I Like It” he had managed to not only have all of the women standing, screaming and singing along like school girls but the men in the house were just as giddy. Here’s the best part of the evening: Sheila E brought El Debarge back on the stage before they bid us all a good night. Sheila began to speak a word over El Debarge. I remember hearing that Sheila E. was born again. Sheila told El Debarge that he has a gift and an anointing from God to use his gift. She told him in so many words that all of his rough days and struggles were meant for this time. My sincere hope is that El Debarge realizes truly for himself that he has “it” and that he has for once and for all exorcised those demons that held him hostage for so long.
