Last night I was fortunate enough to get together with LAUSD and some of the biggest taste makers in LA for the Curly Tops & Nautica Jackets listening session. If you grew up on the west in the 90′s, this title needs no introduction. For those who are still a bit confused, Curly Tops & Nautica Jackets marks a time of life where freshness was key, cliques were on point and the ladies fell in love with the man with the cleanest Dockers and Wallabees.
L.A.U.S.D, while synonymous with the school district, stands for Los Angeles Unifed Sound District. The production team, Lazy Lou and Polyester, worked with over 30 artists and for over a year to perfect this album; including everyone from J. Davey, to U-N-I, PacDiv, Blu…you name it, they’re on it. Make no mistake, it is not a mixtape. It is not a street album. Curly Tops & Nautica Jackets is the first project of a movement that is focused on bringing the city together, showcasing our talent and creating an awareness that the West is indeed…back.
Shout out to EightysBaby, 2dopeboyz, BananaClipse, Eazee, DjSpintelect and of course, Jansport J [who produced 2 tracks on the album, 'Starter Jackets' and 'we Made It']. The album drops Tuesday, March 24th. Make sure you cop.
