ABOUT BREAKBEAT LOU - ULTIMATE BREAKS & BEATS
A record collector, music lover and historian, “BreakBeat” Lou growth of Hip Hop throughout the 1980s and 1990s , known as Ultimate Breaks and Beats, (commonly abbreviated as UBB). Street Beat Records, created by Lou and the late Leonard “BreakBeat” Lenny Roberts, released the 25 compilation albums from 1986 to 1991. The UBB series and its iconic Octopus logo have always been synonymous with the sound of hip hop, preceding all of today's digital "short cuts" and has become the blueprint used by legendary producers and crate diggers interested in finding "the source."
ABOUT THE REMINDERS
The Reminders are a rare and remarkable musical trio seamlessly blending soulful sounds and roots music with insightful messages and thoughtful lyrics. The group consists of Brussels-born emcee Big Samir and Queens-born emcee/ vocalist Aja Black, a collective creative force that’s hard to beat. Big Samir weaves intricate rhythmic patterns with a bilingual French/English flow, displaying his street smart credibility in both his lyrics and cool demeanor. This is beautifully complimented by Aja Black’s confident delivery, diverse cadences, and unique vocal stylings.
