艺人介绍

上个世纪90年代后期,Sheek Louch简称(Sheek)在和他童年时期的好朋友Jadakiss(原名Jayson Phillips)和Styles P(原名David Styles)一起组成了说唱组合the L.O.X.之后,一起和吹牛老爹(Sean "Puffy" Combs)的Bad Boy唱片公司签约。他们在Bad Boy唱片公司获得了无数参与大牌说唱歌星的专辑录制的机会,在这一过程中他们学到了许多非常有益的知识,并且积累了大量宝贵的经验,最终他们拥有了第一张属于自己的专辑《Money, Power & Respect》,并且销量不错。但是在随后不久的1999年,the L.O.X.离开了吹牛老爹的Bad Boy唱片公司,并继而投奔另一个著名的坏小子DMX手下的Ruff Ryder唱片公司。

作为说唱组合the L.O.X.的三名成员之一,Sheek Louch的两位好朋友,Jadakiss和Styles P已经分别于2001年和2002年发行了个人处女作专辑《Kiss tha Game Goodbye》和《A Gangster and a Gentleman》,现在轮到Sheek Louch自己了。不过Sheek Louch的这张个人专辑从成绩上看显然不如他的两位伙伴,首周仅以6万5千张的销量排名第九位,略低于他两位同伴的第五和第六位。而且这和他们the L.O.X.的团队专辑相比也还是有一定差距的。

在DMX和Eve这些坏小子的指导下,Sheek Louch和the L.O.X.的硬核说唱水平得到了进一步的提高,他们的才华在这里得到了更充分的发挥。之后在2000年the L.O.X.又发行了第二张团队专辑《We Are the Streets》,然后他们三个人就又成为了DMX领导下的说唱团体Ruff Ryders的成员,并且开始投入到个人专辑制作的准备当中去。2003年9月16日,Sheek Louch酝酿已久的个人专辑《Walk Witt Me》正式发售。

Sheek Louch united with childhood friends Jadakiss and Styles to form the LOX, and the trio in turn signed with Bad Boy in the late '90s. The LOX appeared on numerous Bad Boy-affiliated songs as guests and even released an album of their own, Money, Power & Respect (1998), which yielded a hit single of the same name. The LOX left Bad Boy soon afterward to join the Ruff Ryder camp, where the trio's style of hardcore rap fit better alongside other rugged rappers such as DMX. There, the LOX released their second album, We Are the Streets (2000), followed by solo albums for each of the members. Sheek released his solo debut, Walk Witt Me, in 2003 on the group's own Universal-distributed label, D-Block. Despite modest promotion, the label debuted in the Billboard Top Ten, confirming the group's street-level appeal.
