About Me

Me, Myself, and I
LIL ROBS BIO "I'm still around, I still put it down / Fuck, I ain't goin’ nowhere / Ese Lil Rob’s back continuing to drop the neighborhood music / As long as you're there / Something to play loud, be proud of / Something to bump to, get drunk to / Something to Fuck to, make love to / Even got a lil' something for the clubs, too / All in all, it's feel good music / Real good music, REAL HOOD MUSIC!" - Lil Rob (from “I’m Still Here”) Just subtitle this west coast rap king’s latest album “Lil Rob Takes a Road Trip!” Hip Hop’s favorite Chicano – known for ‘reppin’ his hood to the fullest and keeping his rhymes real – hops into his Impala for a funky fresh spin…but on a mission: to take his music, and his people, into some bomb new directions on Twelve Eighteen (his fifth CD and third for Houston-based Upstairs Records). "You can only say so many things about the neighborhood on the same album,” Rob states. “I'm proud to be Mexican - a Chicano - and of where I'm from. Some styles of my music may be new, but that doesn't change who I am. I've got some west coast beats and some sped-up oldies. And for my old fans, I still kick some original oldies samples.” "Summer Nights," the first single from Twelve Eighteen, has already succeeded in blasting down barriers for the barrio superstar. The song went Top 10 in the nation on Billboard Monitor’s radio chart, which made Upstairs Records only the second independent record company to penetrate that portion of the chart in over a decade! Though Rob has sold over 400,000 of all his previous albums combined, his roots remain in the underground of Latin rap. However, with “Summer Nights” being so passionately embraced by Top 40 stations, Rob now has his first official crossover pop radio smash. No one is more surprised than the bad boy himself. “One of my producers, Fingaz, thought all I did was rap over oldies. He played the beat for ‘Summer Nights’ and asked me if I could rap over it. I was like, ‘Yeah, bro’ and wrote the first verse right there at the studio! We recorded it a few days later.” “Summer Nights” sets a precedent for much of the rest of Twelve Eighteen. Splitting time between producers Fingaz (from Corona, California) and Moox (from Austin, Texas), Rob cut 26 tracks, then selected the12 best for Twelve Eighteen. A few of the unique new beats brought the freak out in Lil Rob. “I've got some nasty songs on this album,” he says grinning slyly, referring to “Playground” and “Bring Out The Freak in You” - “some music for the strip clubs!” Another standout of the new songs is “Rough Neighborhood,” a sequel to his earlier hit “Brought Up in a Small Neighborhood.” For this one, Rob samples "Mannish Boy," the Muddy Waters classic as covered by The Newcomers. “I rapped over some blues, bro,” he says with pride! “Some rappers stay in one style. I rap over any music that I like, which us
