About

Sounds of Nashid Originate Good Rhymes And Music Despite S.O.N.O.G.R.A.M. dropping two years after he had signed and turned in the album to Fat Beats Records, it still served its original purpose: a closer examination of its F.E.T.U.S. predecessor, and an introduction to the rest of his career. With all production by Trackezoids (himself, Decompoze, and Magestik Legend) and limited rhyme appearances by his Subterraneous Records crew, Lo crafted rhymes that displayed a stunning awareness and understanding of his surroundings, further establishing him as one of the most respected emcees in the indie hip-hop scene. Throughout the album's 20 songs, Lo displays the versatility to handle many types of record. “Rocketship” stylishly kicks confident assertions of Lo's skills, “Propaganda” takes media to task for ulterior motives, “Evil of Self” battles inner demons, and “E.T.” recounts a love affair with a woman literally out of this world. With it being his major label debut and the album he was pushing while on the likes of Paid Dues, Vans Warped Tour and more, S.O.N.O.G.R.A.M. was the solo album that would become the foundation for longtime fans.
