Nolia Clap (EP)


Nolia Clap is the only extended play by American hip hop group UTP. It was released on November 23, 2004, through Rap-A-Lot Records. Recording sessions took place at Dean's List House Hits in Houston, at Stone House in Los Angeles, at Studio Center in Miami, and at UTP Studios in New Orleans. Production was handled by Derek "Grizz" Edwards, Donald "XL" Robertson, Mike Dean, Slice Tee and Juvenile. It features guest appearances from Kango, Bun B, Earl Hayes, Hot Wright, Red Eye, Slim Thug, T.I. and Z-Ro.
After the success of UTP's single "Nolia Clap", Rap-A-Lot released a seven-track EP to capitalize on the single's success. It contained both the original version on "Nolia Clap", a new remix of the song, and a few unreleased tracks that did not make the cut for The Beginning of the End.... The EP did not fare as well as the single however, and only reached number 65 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums.
