Info

Known in the hood as "The Spanish Frank White" Big Lou was born in Camden N.J.; The Worst City in America. Big Lou was raised by a single mother (Maria Rodriquez) and grew up with 4 brothers and 3 sisters. At the age of 14 Big Lou started growing fond of music. He began writing songs on the struggles of his hood. Before his music career would blossom he became a product of the streets. He started selling drugs. Although he was living the fast life, he never lost his love for music. he was determined to make a better way and started investing his dirty money into buying studio equipment. Little by little he spent more time in the lab than on the streets. After successfully finishing his first Independent album he gave up the street life and focused on selling his music. Amazingly Big Lou sold 3,500 units in a city that's only 8 square miles, creating a buzz that traveled to Philly and parts of Jersey City fast. As Big Lou's success kept growing He decided to start his own Independent label called LOST CITY RECORDS. He began booking his own shows and opened up for acts such as Freeway, Ms Jade, Fat Joe, MobbDeep, KRS One, Mista Cheeks, Papoose, Remy Ma, Jae Millz, Busta Rhymes, D-Block, Saigon and many others. He also performed at over 10 Spanish Day Parades and had Latin's comparing him to the great, late Big Pun. Taking it a step further Big Lou invested his CD money into doing a charity event for the local schools in his neighborhood which he called LOST CITY 4 the KIDS. In 2006 Big Lou caught the attention of one of Hip Hop’s Legendary DJ’s and Pioneer Kay Slay. After see Big Lou wow the crowds at several shows, Kay Slay signed Big Lou to his Streetsweepers label; the same label that lunched the careers of world renowned artist like Papoose and Saigon. Some people say Big Lou is an artist that deserves to be heard by the world. An MC that one day could be compared to the elite rappers of Hip Hop.
