C-San featured in Format Mag

Format: On your MySpace page under ‘Sounds Like’ you wrote: Fatburger, Ramona’s, Westchester High, and Darby Park, to name just a few. These are all L.A. spots; do you consider yourself a quintessential L.A. rapper?
C-San: Yes I do. Everything I represent is nothing short of what L.A., or my L.A., really is. I was born and raised in Los Angeles and have lived all over, from South Central to Hawthorne to the Valley, where I go to school, and now Inglewood. Through my music, I want people from all over to be familiar with the culture, lifestyle, struggles, and joy that Los Angeles has to offer.

tm-sxsw2

“We recorded the set as a gift to our fans who have been waiting patiently for BKNATI but couldn’t get to SXSW to see us perform. We felt like just because you couldn’t make the trip, that shouldn’t mean you couldn’t get the same sneak peak that the industry insiders get. Enjoy!” – Donwill

“I had a ball down at SXSW. It was basically a hip hop family reunion of sorts for our generation of the music industry.” –Ilyas

“We decided to give our fans a live sampler for the album before May 12th because we know there’s some Tanya Morgan fans that never got to see us live, and others that are anticipating what the album is going to sound like.” –Von Pea

So here is the anticipated project from LAUSD (Los Angeles Unified Sound District) featuring L.A.’s Hip Hop scene.  Most of your favorite rappers are featured, but there are a few missing.  Either way this album is audio treat.  LAUSD is Polyester the Saint & Lazy Lou on the Beat aka L4.  As an ode to the 90’s era when the west coast was at it’s most prominent stage and was as focused on fashion as it is now, Curly Tops & Nautica Jackets were just some of the features of the in crowd.  And this album features many of LA’s in-crowd.  Acts like UNI, Pac Div, J*Davey, Blu, Chris Focus, Diz Gibran, El Prez, Dom Kennedy, Convinced, Tunji and many many more showed up to grace the project.  Featuring all original production by LAUSD* this is more than a mixtape but a soundtrack to LA’s movement.
