about

Kool Herc is an ode to old school hip hop, but in a refreshing way. In it's name this record pays homage to the man accredited with giving birth to the culture. LA Dub Z continues to flaunt his memories of adolescence, and show off his skills on the mic for fans imbedded in the roots.

lyrics

To all my people who really love hip hop.
And those who just wanna hear the base knock when the beat inside your speakers drop.
like some sneaker tops fresh up out the sneaker box.
Naw I'm Scuffed up like the Jordan's you fucked up.
Ill tell my story tho.
I been out here getting busy couple times almost had me on the Maury show.
I am not the father of more than 2 or 3.
And any more than that is in the hat which makes it news to me.
But stop the scrutiny please don't ruin the youth in me.
Look and you'll see the you n me either that or your eulogy.
Because I'll bury you.
Pick you apart from the inside out n find a cemetery to carry you to.
Dub City changed me.
Spun me around turned me inside out spit me out and I'm the same me.
Finals game 3.
After we win I'll come back with a different roster and repeat with the same team.
Don't you touch my microphone when I be on that bitch.
Got about 3 minutes and I want my shit.
All the hip hop heads always love my hits.
And all the little ratchets scream they want my dick.
I don't dress to impress I express to cope.
But they feenin for a nigga whos surprisingly dope.
What if I told you the man above is supplying the coke.
Metaphorically you niggas don't have no hope.
My grades were never ones to brag about. Pants falling off my ass during class made the teachers wanna drag me out.
I was writing my lyrics.
In one ear and out the other for this brother because your lectures I didn't hear em.
Still so intelligent skin full of melanin.
Young and I'm black with a plan I'm excelling in.
Beats are my medicine and for the lyrics I speak.
I'm winning when I spit em so go ahead n read em in wheap.
Play your cards right.
You like the way I cut the deck n all the sudden wanna treat me like a star right.
I don't deal with you lost my appeal to you. You and I are not the same and that's why they ain't feeling you.

LA Dub Z * Absent Minded * Ohio

Most fans that have fell in love with LA Dub Z's music are the same people that think hip hop could use a breath of fresh air. LA Dub Z's style of rap is odd ball music fueled by poetic yet crafty lyricism and infused emotion. It seems Lawrence found a true connection through hip hop and has used rapping as his personal outlet since he first became fixated on expressing himself. ... more
