Bronx duo Camp Lo have steadily maintained their stake in the game for having some of the most dapper panache. From the velour-smooth raps and beats to their effortless fashion, Sonny Cheeba and Geechi Suede have set the bar high for MCs who claim to be leaders of the new cool. They’ve also released a new project each year since 2015 and they’re returning again in 2018 with Candy Land Xpress – The Mixtape.
After hitting Europe for The Get Down Brothers Tour, Sonny and Geechi felt the time was right to release a new 19-track project complete with skits and a remix from the Kottonmouth Kings. Toward the end of the tracklist, the songs seem to showcase the production more as Camp Lo genuinely sound like they’re freestyling and having more fun in the booth than anything. The skits might trigger something if you ever had any trouble with going out with your friends or getting into the club. There’s also one for fans of the 1979 film The Warriors.

I’m definitely gonna cop this. Good to know these guys are still making music!!
Always been fans of these guys . Dont know why they never blew up.
I think their lingo and their references to 70s blaxploitation films went over a lot of heads. Uptwon Saturday Night was a superb album.
Krystal Karrington’s easily in the top 10 of best intros. Albums still fresh always gonna remember buying Great White Hype sdtrk for the Bone track but Coolie High got way more play…
Don’t know why they didn’t blow up? You expected white girls who loved the Backstreet Boys to become fans of two dudes stuck in the 70s? Wake up!
Bruh looking like Kyle Lowry in the hat
Kyle Lowry and James Harden
That first song better be the worst song on the album because its super wack. And I love Camp Lo but wtf was that?
This is like an oasis in a desert when you look up and down this page at the state of hip hop.
