Back in November, the OG FAM, Lou Minoti sent over a random video that made me run it back a few times, share it with some friends, then come back to it; it was a Lo-fi, eerie, anti-bootleg Polo Ralph Lauren song by a young artist from South Africa that goes by the unforgettable name of LUCHO GAZPACHO aka LVCHO LO.

I IMMEDIATELY knew that I wanted to work with him and this HOMAGE to the Founders, OG's, allies, & trailblazers of the LOLIFE movement, as well as the global Cult(ure) inspired by it is our first presentation...

G Fam Black & Mello Dee - Checkmate feat. Lateb & Blaq Poet

I began freestyling + writing rhymes in 93 at age 13 and by 2003 (age 23) I was awarded "BEST LYRICIST" out of ALL genres by ATL Mag in their Local Musician issue. I had ONLY been recording actual music for 5 yrs at that point and releasing for 2, as the youngest member of the very legendary, recently defunct #BroadyChamps crew.

This song is a synopsis of the decade between me picking up a pen to write rhymes and me first being formally CELEBRATED for it!
