Bio

When you are white and performing hip hop that can sound a little strange but when your three white boys from the heart of dixie it sounds ludicrous. The LACS which consists of Clay "Uncle Snap" Sharpe, Brandon "Yocal" Herndon, and Brian "Captain Kang" King have changed that point of view. When the LACS released Midas Well Get Drunk in 2002 it was evident that they had something new for Hip Hop fans. Their music which draws heavy on the dirty south movement with the rock and country traditions of the South has gandered some attention throughout the southeast. "We grew up listening to everything from Hank Williams to Pastor Troy." said Uncle Snap. The LACS which comes from a host of ideas is more of a statement of where the group got its humble beginnings. The LACS are known to some as the Loud Ass Crackers and to their most loyal fans they are simply the Bottom Boyz of Lower Appling County. The LACS which started its own label Side Ya Mouth Records in 2002 have two underground albums that successfully pushed them into the mainstream. Midas Well Get Drunk and South on Fire are the cornerstones in which their label was built. The albums combined have sold over 5,000 copies and are still in demand today. The group has completed three more albums since 2002 and released Lacology the first of these in November 2006. It has gandered worldwide exposure from its distribution through CD BABY and iTunes. The album is the first of a three part trillogy the LACS are releasing to inform the Hip Hop world of their brand of music. The second album Lacademics was scheduled for release in July 2007 but was put on hold because of distributional problems. The LACS produced songs featuring Pastor Troy, MR. MUDD, DG Yola and the ATL legend Raheem tha Dream on Lacademics. It has not been determined if the full album will be released in the fourth quarter of this year or the first quarter of 2008. However the singles featuring these artists are available through SNOCAP.
