Upon meeting D.Allen in a freestyle battle in which the two traded blows as the last men standing, Dolo took the opportunity presented to show off his production. The pair did not link for nearly three months. D.Allen finally made contact which resulted on two guest appearances on QUICKSAND. Extremely impressed by D’s lyrical prowess and generally similar way of thinking, Dolo realized the potential of the two as a unit and "D.Allen & Dolo" was born. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Follow up to D-Day, The Distance picks up where D-Day left off with the same fire from the Duo that made H.E.R.C.U.L.E.S. a certified street smash. What's different this time around? Direction. Where D-Day was more ear candy for the mainstream ear and modern club-goer, Distance boasts a return the deeper side of two men coming to terms with a changing game and their own personal demons as well. A few surprises lie within such as the cover of Gary Jules' "Mad World" on which D. Allen opens with his suicidal contemplation and Dolo sings a Beatles reminiscent chorus of the origanal text. Also notable is "OVERDrivin", a full-throtle, supercrunk re-hashing of D-Day's "Drivin'" the likes of which is bound to find listeners jumping around their living rooms or inviting speeding voilations behind the wheel. The Distance is heart, raw energy, and food for the hungry ear. Garunteed to satisfiy, Dee and Lo's latest opus is proof that "multi-regional" hip-hop is nothing to be overlooked. They have gone the distance.
