DISCOVERING RAP!
What up ya'll... They call me "Loco" originally known as the "Loco Pimp"! Let me take you back real quick... I grew up in Southern California where I first discovered rap.. The first rap group I ever listened to was the 69 Boyz! Their beats, their rhymes, their style and flow just fuckin blew me away! I couldn't get enough of it.. So I gave in on it... and ever since then... ive been into the hip hop scene! (Like KRS One said.. "Rap is something you do, HIP HOP is something you live!") First rapper I actually started listening to was Mack 10! Walkin to elementary school with my tape player everyday, listenin to his first solo album (or should I say tape!)! The whole feel of that westcoast sound was fuckin unbelievable! Then I started getting a lil more into it.. I started listening to 2Pac, Ice Cube, LL Cool J, Snoop Dogg, etc.. The years went by, new artists came along, and I discovered the ones that influenced me in a lot of ways today!
THE JUGGALO IN ME!
I'm a Juggalo! I said it... and I live it... I discovered the Insane Clown Posse!... and this is how it started!.. You see.. ever since I can remember, I have been watching wrestling (WWF/WWE)! So I was watchin one day, sometime in the mid 90's I believe... and this group named the Oddities came out! I wadnt really a big fan of em, but their entrance theme that they came out to caught my ear everytime!!.. I just thought to myself, damn who the fuck are these mutha fuckas who do their shit?! Then the announcers started to talk about em more, and more.. and one day, The Insane Clown Posse came out with em, rapping the Oddites theme song on the way to the ring! 2 Fuckin Evil Ass Clowns that rapped! I was fuckin' blown away! So that night, I got on America Online (thats when AOL first came out, and if you had it, you were the FUCKIN SHIT!) but... I did a search on them, and I heard my first actual track from them... the song was "Santas a Fat Bitch".. After I heard that song... I lost my fuckin mind.. I had to learn more about these cats.. So I had to cop a album from them which was Forgoten Freshness Vol. 1&2! The Juggalo was born in me!.. After you know it.. I owned almost every ICP Album there was... I was a mutha fuckin Juggalo!.. I was the ICP kid in my hood!
LOCO WAS BORN!
Years went by... and I started getting into more lyrical rappers like Eminem, Canibus, Nas, Wu-Tang Clan, Biggie came out... Rap was in my blood! Let me actually rephrase that.. MUSIC WAS IN MY BLOOD! So in the begining of my middle school days, all I did was listen to music, and take drugs! I cant lie about it.. I was with the wrong crowd, in the wrong hood! Back then, all the shit I heard, saw, did, smoked, sniffed, drank, etc.. turned me into what they call me now........... "Loco!†I was always rapping to all my cd's.. so one time I got a hold of a Instrumental CD with all these hott ass beats on em.. And I just picked up a pen, and paper and started writing! It came so naturally to me... I couldn't believe the shit I was thinkin that came into my mind, into my hand, to that piece of paper.. It was pure Hardcore Wicked Shit! (Thats why I had to explain about ICP... cuz they influenced me in a lot of ways!) But.. I was in middle school.. (my first 8th grade year!.. yea thats right.. MY FIRST 8th Grade Year, cuz I was a fuckin failure in schol Mutha FUCKAS!) And in class, while everybody was doing their work and all that whack ass shit... I was writin rhymes about people I didnt like.. Mostly bitches at the time.. cuz I mean god damn! there were so many bitches out there that pissed me the fuck off! haha.. So I started rhymin about them... and one day, the principal got a hold of one of my rhymes, and he couldnt believe what the fuck he was reading... So im sittin in class one day, and the school pig comes in and escorts me to his office.. Busts out the paper with my rhymes on it, asks me a whole shit load of questions, talkin about, am I planning on a murder? do I wanna kill this bitch? ... "NO im not planning on a murder, and YES i wanna kill that bitch!" So fuckin what? I guess it just wasnt normal for a kid at my age to think or write about that kind of violent, evil, and aggressive shit that I wrote!
DJ LOCO!
So I met my homie "Hickz" around that time... and he was in the same mind state I was in... we were 2 brothers from another mother! So we both started rhymin, recordin on them little tape player shits, perfecting our vocals, lyrical ability, style, all that good shiiiit... He never really stopped rapping, but I kind of stopped because Drugs & Alcohol got in the way again!.. But I eventually grew out of it, well... MOST of the drugs, NOT the alcohol :) But once I got my head straight again, I tried to get into the music thing again.. and I started producing beats.. I had a few different beat making programs, and then I went out and bought me a fat ass keyboard and started makin melody on there! I was making beats on a daily! I started going to alot more shows, and concerts, (mostly ICP and Kottonmouth Kings!) I knew one day, I wanted to be up there and rock the mic like them! I started writing raps here and there again... and AGAIN mostly I wrote ABOUT people in the hood that I fuckin hated!.. Before you know it... more drugs came into the scene... so the music got cut off AGAIN!... but a year later... I got my shit straight! I fuckin GREW UP! I started doing DJ Remixing! Thats what really got me going! I was schooling mixes left and right, and everybody was feelin em! A month later, I came out with "DJ Loco - Vol. 1" I was promoting my mixes on TightBeatZ.com under the DJ Section.. and I was one of the top 3 DJ's on that site... I found a hobbie that I was good at, and loved doing.. a couple of months later... I came out with DJ Loco - Vol. II "Game Over", which has got to be one of the hottest DJ MIX CD's you'll ever hear! I was too proud...
ADDICTED ADDICTS!
One day, I was kickin wit my homies, Hickz, Caos (The Hoodhiker), and Big Daddy Dizzle.. we were all vibin one night, gettin fucked up, rhymin.. and somebody came out and said... "Why dont we start a rap group?"... And to MYSELF i thought.. (Pshhh.. yeaa... right! OK, lets go see how long it takes a chicken to bust a nut after fucking a muffin top).... But I was down.. I was like.. yea fuck it.. lets start a rap group... we can all rap.. lets do it!.. So we came up with a name.. and the "Addicted Addicts" were born! I bought myself a mic at the time too, so it just seemed right! Caos and Dizzle were makin beats so it just all fit.. we were doin the damn thing... So one night, at my apartment, we did our first song!!!.. called "What The Hood Made Me!" So we wrote to it, recorded it.. and we had a sick ass hit on our hands! We had a small buzz around the way... we were doin the damn thing! So we started recording a few more tracks, like.. "The Pusha", "Just Business", "My Hoodie", etc.. Then.. everything just stopped for a while! People were constanly asking us, "Yo what up wit the Double A CD" and we just kept tellin em.. "Its comin yall.. Its comin..." But forreal... we just stopped! Too much shit happend to all of us at one point at that time.. From work problems, to females, to legal troubles, family shit, arguments, etc.. all that shit hit us, and fucked us all up! We all just went our seperate ways, and took a break for a while.. We're still all homies!.. But we just had to do our own thing ya know?
HERE I COME!
SO after i got MY SHIT STRAIGHT!!, I was just kickin in at my place, and started doing solo songs, such as "Hold Ya Head", "Dear Pops", "Shots Fired", "Gangsta", and "G'z UP!" The responses I was getting from my MYSPACE Music Profile was off the chain!! I was like shiiiiiiiiit.. Let me stay on the grind, and make me a fuckin album! (Cuz thats what I always wanted to do from day 1) People already know me, they knew I rapped.. let me just see what happens!... So I started gettin to work!.. One night i'm sittin at the crib by myself... and something just told me.. "pick up a pen and paper and WRITE!" So thats what I did.. I had come across this sick ass beat!!......, and I dont know what it was, I guess the alcohol, and weed that night were just setting in perfect, and I had a wicked feeling about me! And it all came so naturally to me, to write a song called "I'm a Juggalo"... So I just started getting to work, and started writin the song.. When it came to the hook in the song.. I didnt think to myself.. "ok, how am i gonna do this hook?" ..... naw... i just DID IT! (It's like there was a spirit with me, just controlling my mind, and writing down everything for me!).. I recorded the track... sat back, listened to the song.. and this HUGE wave of CHILLS just ran through my body! I KNEW I had a hit on my hands... I called up all my homies, and let all my people on the website know about it! Everybody was dying to hear what the fuck I'd been talkin about! So after sitting on this song for a few days, I posted it, and gave all my homies a copy of it! And the response was UN-FUCKIN-BELIVABLE!!! Everybody loved it! Till this DAY!... I havent had anybody come up to me and tell me that the song was whack!.. That shit was pure MAGIC! I fuckin BLEW UP... I had built my own fanbase, got signed to a local Independent Label called Dark iLLushun Entertainment, I had people hit me up by the hour, askin me about "WHAT UP WIT A CD? I NEED a CD NOW, where can I find more songs from you, YOUR THE SHIT!" I was Un-Real! I was fuckin determined to not let this oppurtunity slip away again... Here's My chance! I gotta do the damn thing! Theres no turning back for me now! I Gotta rep for The Hood!, I got ALOT of shit I gotta get of my chest!, I GOT NOTHING TO LOSE!... HERE I COME MUTHA FUCKAS!!!!
I'M HERE!
I'm HERE NOW! The Album dropped, and wether you like it or not, I TOLD YOU SO!... I've marked my spot in the underground rap scene! The ball is on a roll.. in less then a year I've gotten major underground recognition, not to mention LOCAL HEADLINE recognition! In the song "Here I Come", I said "2007, its the year of Loc!" I wasn't lying! My album dropped January of 2007, and it was on... "Here I Come", in my eyes, is one of the realest and dopest albums out with alot of truth, and confessions behind it! Not only did I mean "HERE I COME!" as in... "get ready mutha fuckas, loco is on his way to put his name in the underground books!" But its kind of like a vision of my life! It's the way I see my life going.. If you look really deep into the concept of this album, you see the grim reaper on the cover, hear the "spirits of the dead" prayer in the intro... the song "If I Should Die".. if you aint picked up on it, the whole theme of this album, and my life is.. I'm about to face death! "Here I Come".. i'm talking to the man himself! It's not just a cool storyline for the "Loco" character, its the way i really feel! I'm not a character know i mean?.. If you know me outside the music, I am Loco! This is me, this is who I am! I put alot of truth behind my songs! Every single day of my life, i think of death! So I put my life and my music in one and you get Loco, then you get "Here I Come".. Just another chapter of my life that i'ma ride out till the end! "I'm coming satan... get ready!" Now in the music spotlight, I HAVE COME! Before my album even dropped I'm up on stage opening up for one of my biggest influences "Tech N9ne", making Local Headline News with my "Virginia Beach Cops" song! Got every police officer in my city huntin me down! It doesnt matter... VA BEACH is behind me, and im not gonna stop till I drop This is just the begining of Loco! So Get Ready......
