Eddie Lo | “Course of Action,” The Only One of Its Kind
Making his first appearance on Rap Fiesta’s platform, Eddie Lo and his newest project, “Course of Action,” are shaking things up. Between soul-moving beats and slick rhyming schemes, it’s hard to pick what you like most about Eddie Lo’s style.
After taking an almost two-year-long break from music, the rapper pushed his limits and stepped outside his comfort zone to craft the project we know as “Course of Action.”
Raised in Monterrey, Mexico, Eddie Lo has been making music since 2013. However, the rapper began taking his craft seriously in 2017. After an extended break in 2021, Eddie Lo came back into the music game hungrier than ever, inspiring his latest project and giving him the fuel to create something unlike his previous projects.
This album was truly inspired by a long period of absence from doing music and coming back to it trying to push my limits of what I can do, Eddie Lo.
“Course of Action” is packed with one ear-catching song after another. As soon as you think Eddie Lo has shown you everything he has in his bag, the artist pushes the limits further. This continuous evolution throughout the album leaves you itching for more and unsure of what to expect next.
One thing that remains consistent throughout the album is Eddie Lo’s unapologetic nature and addicting style. That said, the bars and rhyming schemes you experience throughout “Course of Action” are absolutely brilliant. Eddie Lo’s ability to bring real-world references and spin them on their head speaks to his heightened creativity.
But Eddie Lo’s gifts don’t stop at lyricism and slick vocal deliveries. The artist also produced every song you hear in “Course of Action.” And when we say the beats are unconventional boppers, we aren’t lying. Eddie Lo’s rhythms are truly one of a kind, blending seemingly incompatible genres to create something aesthetic.
One example of this is heard in the song “NEED.” The beat blends a lonely jazz-like horn with upbeat hip-hop elements. On top of that, Eddie Lo lays down a hard flow and bars that hit your ears just right. It’s tough to put into words how this song feels and sounds, so you’ll just have to listen to the album to find out.
It’s a shortened version of my name, and I really try to tell my story in my music, so it’s perfect, Eddie Lo, regarding the origin of his stage name.
