Theo Martins - Lo Fi Love

Producer: $port

Album: Sincerely Yours, The Dancefloor

Label: Unsigned

With Valentine’s Day fast approaching, it seems like everyone has romance on the brain – well, everyone except Theo Martins. Mixtape leak Lo Fi Love finds the R.I. repper expressing his feelings not for a special lady, but for an entire country and its people. Inspired by a recent trip to Zambia, during which Martin soaked in the nation’s culture and cuisine as well as speaking before a local congregation about his personal and spiritual journey, the record finds beatsmith $port flipping a sample of Johnson, Hawkins, Tatum & Durr’s You Can’t Blame Me as the freestyle series alumnus reflects upon the life-changing experience. After describing the hardship and struggle he witnessed, as well as his trepidation about making his first trip abroad, he goes on to ponder the ways in which his relationship with his parents has affected his grand ambitions, and vice versa. As insightful as it is pleasing to the ear, this cut introduces a side of Theo Martins not encountered on previous features. If you’re digging it, chances are you’ll enjoy the eclectic array of new material set to appear on Sincerely Yours, The Dancefloor, coming “soon.”

This song first appeared on the Independent Chart on February 7, 2011

DJ Z DJ Booth Crew Total Ratings: 11639	Rating: DJ Z's Top Rated Songs Theo's rhymes are so dynamic and the production from usual collaborator $port is so superb that I found myself quite disappointed when, after the 2 minute mark of the song, I had to already press replay. I wouldn't say the momentum died too early, but I could have enjoyed another 45 second musical breakdown (with our without vocals). Follow @DJBooth

cb126405 DJ Booth Crew Total Ratings: 1622	Rating: cb126405's Top Rated Songs Theo's flow and lyrics kept me listening close, but other than that I can't say I enjoyed the rest of the track until the production hit at the 1:45 mark. Perfect example of the old A for artist and C for producer type of track.

Nathan S. DJ Booth Crew Total Ratings: 2476	Rating: Nathan S.'s Top Rated Songs It's dope to hear rappers acknowledge that there's a world outside of the game, and few can do so as dopely as Theo. I'd have to agree that this sounds a little unfinished, but for what it was trying to achieve, it's absolutely dead on.
