The LOX, both as solo artists and a collective, have delivered what appears to be an influx of music in recent times which could only be a good sign. Though it's been nearly four years since they released their last album, they've continued to drop loose singles such as April's "Loyalty and Love." Now, they've returned with their new record, "Gave It To 'Em" which brings the griminess of Yonkers to the electronic-meets-hip-hop soundscape that AraabMuzik is known to create. Styles P, Sheik Louch, and Jadakiss sound like they just came out of the traphouse for this one with dirt under their fingernails -- it's raw with an anthemic touch that we can only imagine would go off during a show.

Quotable Lyrics
You could make a scene, and I make a buck
My stylo is to treat em like a kilo, cut 'em or tape 'em up
I ain't the killer type, I'm the villa type
Black Tuxedo in the Porsche, that's vanilla white
I can't even pillow fight, guns in the pillowcase
Trying to count the old bills, the shit got the lil' face
