LMNO - The Obvious
Producer: Theory Hazit, cuts by LD
Album: 20/20 Music
Label: Workethic/Up Above Records
Booth readers, I rarely find myself at a loss for words, but today I’m just not sure how to proceed. On the first feature from LMNO, “the beats and the rhymes speak for themselves,” so anything I could say would be stating The Obvious. Not that I’ve ever let redundancy, repetition or sheer irrelevance stop me before. Making its world premiere on our homepage as entry number seven in The DJBooth and Event Electronics’ ongoing series, this retro-informed cut finds beatsmith Theory Hazit and DJ LD coming together to craft a retro-informed blend of gritty samples and authentic cuts, which the West Coast spitter proceeds to lace with gimmick-free (and occasionally paradoxical: “I’m doper than the headliner even when I headline the show.” ) lyrical braggadocio. As for the final product… well, a listen is worth a thousand words, so I’ll shut my figurative trap (Since I don’t actually type with my mouth hanging open.) Those who like what they’re hearing can keep it locked for further entries in the Event 20/20 Music Series throughout October and November, as well as heading over to Event’s official site for information on their new 20/20BAS Monitor Speakers.

We have never before featured LMNO on DJBooth.net, but the 20/20 Music series seemed like a good time to make a long overdue introduction to our readers. The sound on display here is straight 90s hip hop, the essential elements of the genre.

DJ LD killed the intro with the scratching skills. Production is pretty cool. I can put this into rotation easily. Good flow and "real-hip-hop" feel to it.
