Los
Published: September 22, 2010
In a way, Los represents everything stale and predictable about Baltimore hip-hop in 2010: a former battle rapper still coasting off the fame of once having had a major label deal, piggybacking on every trend he can, from AutoTune to the word “swag.” But a listen to recent mixtape Zero Gravity confirms that the undeniable talent that got him signed to Bad Boy way back when is still there, and few in the city have ever rhymed as relentlessly and wittily as he does. With killer singles like “Sexy While You Chillin’,” featuring hometown R&B star Mario on the hook, Los is still working harder and smarter at that elusive mainstream breakthrough.
