Shotta Loso – ‘Half Alive’ Album Impresses

LA rapper Shotta Loso dropped his last album “Half Alive” at the beginning of November. The idea of the title symbolizing the artist is not fully living, meaning he has not lived his life to the fullest potential… yet.

The entire project took the artist about one year to complete. Los wanted to take his time with the project, making sure each song had a unique sound while fitting in the same project. The emcee focused on being able to reach various different listeners and allow them to choose what they wanted to listen to.

Each song includes a few seconds of skits to introduce the theme of the track. My personal favorite record on the album is “Everybody Step Bacc”, with Barack Obama’s distinct voice as the skit stating, “everybody wants to be rich, everybody aspires to be rich”. This same idea is reflected in the artists lyrics,

i unlocced newer flows,

i just leveled up and unlocced newer hoes

i’m just tryna make my money overload
