Following in Los Angeles’ storied history of producing top-tier hip hop talent, new wave rap act TwoZERO1 has emerged onto the scene with a style that proves uniquely their own. Combining English, Spanish, and urban Latin to convey their message in the most authentic and genuine way possible, their medium speaks volumes to their life experiences and conveys their messages through their genuinely authentic work. As they take their next steps deeper into the limelight, their debut full-length album, “CALL TWO THE STRE3TZ1: LLAMAME,” introduces the project with gusto, showcasing their countless creative proclivities. Headlined by the record’s lead-off track, of the outfit’s namesake, the single gives fans a glimpse into the artists’ minds and nuanced style of their production values.
The piece begins with a pulsating orchestra of electronic sound, and as the ferocity of the track increases with every bar. A reverberant baritone voice announces “This is two zero one” repeatedly in a spoken tone, and we feel the intensity build as the world of their music is built around us.
Characterized by its high intensity beats and flowing lyrical delivery, the album asserts a clear identity from the first notes. Lyrics that announce the ambition of the artists, both musically and as they relate to life as a whole, pepper the verses, giving fans a clear outline of what to expect from their style of music. Having accomplished so much with this release, fans can only wait with anticipation to see what could possibly be coming next from this group’s studio.
