SMOOTH (FEAT. CYPH4) - SINGLE
BY OUTSIDERS SYNDICATE
Crew member Nord1kone teamed up with one of San Francisco’s dopest emcees, Cyph4, and they created a Bay Area classic. Bass driven, jazzy production from Chef Mike accompanies sharp turntablism from LMT Break, while the flows relate Graffiti writing to being top notch emcees. The hook ties the themes of the track together perfectly; “Smooth with the blueprints, Mastermind the Vision, First come the Outline, Then comes the Fill-in, Crash-land, Bay Area 51, in the city San Francisco, this is How its Done.”

YOU KNOW THE STYLE - EP
BY OUTSIDERS SYNDICATE
O.G. crew members Nord1kone and Decrepit put their heads together with LMT Break and produced YOU KNOW THE STYLE, a dope EP with varying soundscapes and appearances from the whole crew. The title track is driven by a booming bass, horn samples, and a huge drum line. Nord1kone and Decrepit trade verses back and forth while LMT Break provides precise turntable technique, cementing this track as Outsiders anthem. On “Mind Over Matter,” the production and mood becomes much more introspective. Nord1kone and Decrepit trade verses over moody production started by Nord1kone but perfected by LMT Break mastermind touch. Finally, “Sinister Styles” see’s rugged bass heavy demo tape style production from Nord1kone get absolutely destroyed by The I.M.F., Jimmy Beatz, and Nord1kone himself. LMT Break adds in drum lines to make this track an absolute smasher. Vinyl is available via The Get Down Records and Common and Normal. The Vinyl version also includes the Outsiders Scratch tool, designed by LMT Break and meant to add heavy weaponry into any Deejay’s arsenal. Artwork by Miami based graffiti writer Keverones.
