About the album:
Enter those bloody alleys blocked off with yellow tape and chalk outlines. Secret backrooms riddled with sly crooks and blunt smoke. Slink into the underworld, the seedy shadowland owned by Jeremiah Jae and L’Orange on their noir-hop opus, "The Night Took Us In Like Family." 

Consider it the alchemy of Madvillain and "The Maltese Falcon": a five-part fable of tangled crimes, narrow escapes, and raining lead. The door busts open with “A Conspicuous Man.” L’Orange’s carefully severed cinematic clips hold the frame steady. The Windy City-raised Jae muscles the narrative forward—the hitman creeping. 

Beats bend sinister with imagery aiming for the temples. Jae invokes dark clouds, crowns of thorns and LSD eyes. Bars written in dirt. Samples are disembodied and ethereal. It’s like a grand jury indictment doubling as a Greek chorus. A song title like “Ice Obsidian” says it all. This is frozen lava, black and white celluloid, the spoils won by sinners. Watch your back rap. 

Or maybe it’s the hip-hop version of the gangster flicks made before the Hays Code—raw and uncensored, deeply artful without pretension. Pitchfork once described Jae as: “a lot of people talk loud and say nothing; Jeremiah Jae finds strength in the inverse." On "The Night Took Us In Like Family," he inhabits both eulogizer and executioner. He triumphantly looms over the corpses and explains how this all came to be. L’Orange supplies concrete requiems of dusted soul: beats to crack safes, soundtracks to stealth assassinations. 

If gangsta rap remains one of the genre’s most well worn tropes, Jae and L’Orange take inspiration from the rarely tapped roots of the tradition. This isn’t riffing on Oliver Stone’s "Scarface" like popular cliché, but rather the original Al Capone exploitation flick from the early 30s. Jae conjures a villain who vaporizes. Run-the-Jewels-raw but still sophisticated. Cuban cigars stuffed with California chronic. 

The picture unfolds wide frame. Guest stars include New York poison dart-thrower, Homeboy Sandman and Blackalicious’ Gift of Gab. The chapters flesh out the story: The Conspicuous Man skulks into “God Complex,” “The Damning,” “Revenge and Escape.” Jae and L’ Orange build their world as a catacomb and find a way to escape just as the walls feel like they’re closing in. It fades out as “A Macabre Instrumental” plays. The funeral is closed casket. The memories aren’t easily disposed.

VERSE 1:
If I say it loud 
Would it make it real 
And If you go now 
Would I feel anything
When you’re out on the weekends
Catching up with your old friends 
Do they ask you bout how we’ve been
When you’re walking home
Do you think of me 

CHORUS 1:
(And) how I fell in deep when you touched my skin 
How easily my hands left you shivering 
Didn’t catch our breath before we jumped right in 
Now I don’t know if we can make it out 
Breaking everything with a single touch 
And I don’t even know how to make us stop 
This might be the part where you lose me 
And I’m about to, I’m about to, I’m about to lose you too

VERSE 2:
If you let me go 
Will you let me know
And if we leave it here
Are we letting go
Of drive aways on the weekends
100 nights with no sleep and  
100 miles with no seatbelts on
When I feel alone
Do you think of me

CHORUS 2:
And how I fell in deep when you touched my skin 
How easily my hands left you shivering 
How we went from how are you to how you’ve been 
Now I don’t know if we can make it out 
Breaking everything with a single touch 
I don’t even know how to make it stop 
This might be the part where you lose me 
And I’m about to, I’m about to, I’m about to lose you too
I know 

BRIDGE: 
Oh- I'm about to lose you too
Oh- I'm about to lose you too
If you let me go
Will you let me now
Cus I'm about to lose you too

OUTRO:
How I fell in deep when you touched my skin 
How easily my hands left you shivering 
How we went from how are you to how you’ve been

Lose You Too

"Look" is a stand-alone single I'm releasing to begin the promotion for my next string of EP releases. The song is a bi-coastal boom-bap banger produced by Teddy Roxpin, featuring Blackalicious emcee Gift of Gab and Jesse Abraham. 
 
The upcoming EP is called "satanLOL," and will be released fall of this year. The follow-up to "Look" will be a video-only release of "Frustration" (the intro to "satanLOL"). The "Frustration" video will be going live mid-August. 

satanLOL coming soon...

BS rocks the kind of hip-hop that you put on to get everyone crowd surfing at your basement party. Hailing from Philly and currently residing in Brooklyn, this up-and-comer shows he’s the perfect blend of ridiculous-ass punchlines and loft-party-ready anthems. Grab a drink, roll up and embrace the bullshit.
