Sonny Cheeba and Geechie Suede are back as the legendary Rap duo Camp Lo to bring you Stone & Rob Caught on Tape. Eleven songs deep of brand new, unreleased material, Stone & Rob Caught on Tape continues their infectious Bronx sound that s packed with a bass and inspired by smooth funk and jazz. Their unmistakable blaxploitation style was far ahead of its time when it was introduced in 1996 with "Coolie High" giving way to the 1997 instant-classic "Luchini AKA This Is It", which gave the group their first major exposure breaking into the top 50 on the Billboard Hot 100, and reaching the top 5 on the Hot Rap Singles chart with its horn-driven, upbeat sound. More than a decade, and several albums later, the duo is at it again, teaming up with Good Hands and Traffic Entertainment to deliver Stone & Rob Caught on Tape. As always, they bring you their patented sound that forgoes their survivalist, Muslim upbringing of the Bronx for a vintage, neo soul experience that continues to preempt the trends. Camp Lo's third group member Ski, acclaimed producer on past projects who boasts a resume that includes Jay-Z's Reasonable Doubt, is credited for the album's "Ticket 4 2" which is a smooth, upbeat tribute to the opposite sex while Pete Rock and Styles P make an appearance on the album s banging first single, "On Smash." Live instruments are featured on several tracks and production duties are also handled by Apple Juice Kid, Jocko, and Smoking Apples. Nearly fifteen years after their very first single, Cheeba and Suede haven't missed a beat and continue to remain relevant through guest appearances, connecting with Rap superstars such as Kidz in the Hall and Aesop Rock, blog sites, live performances via national and international tours. They have become pioneers of this new, hipster Rap, big band sound that has only now become popular and they ve done it without abandoning their deeply-rooted New York City heritage. Stone & Rob Caught on Tape is the next chapter in Camp Lo history. Catch it.
