Lower Life Form, comprised of PhD and Brew on vocals,C.O.S. on the beats, and Ish on the turntables, originally formed in 2000 when Ish and PhD were introduced at a local venue. Since then, LLF has not looked back. PhD and Ish recorded an early EP in 2001 entitled "Liphe", and then went on to record a full length album entitled "The Lowlife". Performing overseas, as well as all along the Gulf Coast, LLF continued to press forward and gain momentum. Recently, in 2005, LLF morphed into a four member beast with the additions of fulltime producer "C.O.S.", and "Brew" sharing fulltime mic duties with PhD. What has emerged from the transition is a solid new sound, that not only excites LLF, but has begun to spin a whole new fanbase as tracks from their new album have started to leak. LLF has often been considered a "golden era of hip-hop" throwback, due to the combination of sample heavy beats and its witty rhyme schemes. But more than that, LLF's music reflects who they are on a personal level, as well as the everyday struggles of growing up in the South. While many artists feel compelled to live up to certain criteria, LLF feels compelled to be themselves and it clearly shows in their music. With both emcees hailing from two very different lifestyles on two very different sides of Houston, nothing is left untouched. LLF looks to continue its quest to broaden the boundaries within the rap community, not only in Houston, but across the globe. Since its inception, LLF has kept its focus by sticking by one idea, "It is what it is, and we are who we are." Read more on Last.fm.
