From the moment he heard Sugar Hill Gangs 1980 classic Rappers Delight, the Bay Area Hip Hop luminary knew hed found his calling. Twenty-five years later, LB has obliterated the stereotypes of what an MC is supposed to look like and captured the hearts of countless fans who gravitate to his distinctive voice. Hes now the only Asian-American MC to release 10 studios albums and the first to play major music festivals like Coachella and Lollapalooza. From his Quannum Recordings debut with Latyrx,1997s The Album, to 2003s seminal solo album Later That Day, hes consistently pushed the boundaries of his craft. His newest project, Quite A Life, is like the exclamation point on his milestone year. Ten albums is a lot for any artist, let alone an indie artist who colored outside the lines, so to speak, LB says. Im just appreciative there was always somehow a path for me, no matter how impossible it seemed either on paper or in practice. As the first Asian-American to release a greatest hits compilation, hes pumped out multiple smash singles across four official studio albums. From Stop Complaining to Callin Out and I Like It, I Love It and I Changed My Mind, his material has always retained a musically eclectic feel.
