Biography

Lootpack is a hip-hop trio from Oxnard, California, known for their jazz-influenced beats and intricate lyricism. The group consists of [a=Madlib] ([a=Otis Jackson Jr.]), [a=Wildchild (2)] ([a=Jack Brown (3)]), and [a=DJ Romes] ([a=Romeo Jimenez]). Producer [a=Kan Kick] was also an early member before pursuing a solo career. Lootpack first gained attention in the mid-1990s, making their debut on [a=Tha Alkaholiks]' Coast II Coast album in 1995. Their breakthrough came with the release of their 1999 debut album Soundpieces: Da Antidote! on [l=Stones Throw Records], a project that showcased Madlib’s signature off-kilter production and the group’s unique chemistry. While Lootpack never released another full-length album, its members remained highly active. Madlib went on to become one of hip-hop’s most celebrated producers, working with artists like MF DOOM, J Dilla, and Freddie Gibbs. Wildchild and DJ Romes also pursued solo projects, maintaining the group’s underground legacy.

LYRICS

Why is it ladies only out for money?
Brothers only out to get hoes?
If you really want to rock it with me
If you wanna hear a brother kick flows
Participate!
Ladies let me hear you say "Ow"
Brothers let me hear you say "Ho"
Everybody in the house say "LP"
If you're on the East or the West Coast
Believe that!
What I don't understand is when Lootpack steps in the jam
Brothers wanna bob their head but somehow cannot slam
Sometimes I can relate, but I cannot take
Paying ten dollars just to watch no one participate
I think to myself, "Lootpack, make that crowd lift,
Make that crowd jump up to your surround gift"
But before I bust a mic check this loud teen
Attempts to pick-pocket the mic from Jack in front of the scene
As I come with frustration and coordination
My crew gets in attack formation and takes 'em out
