The Lordz

Lordz Of Brooklyn (short L.O.B.) a.k.a. "The Lordz" is an American crossover hip hop / punk group composed of brothers and childhood friends of mostly Irish American and Italian American descent from Brooklyn, New York. The group was initially formed in 1992. Signed to American Recordings / Ventrue, their first album, entitled All In The Family, released in 1995, was a pure Hip Hop effort. It contained the underground hit single "Saturday Nite Fever", based on a sample of Guess Who's "American Woman". In 2006 the group shortened their name for the release of the third album The Brooklyn Way. Featured artists are long time collaborator Everlast, Bedouin Soundclash, Jaret Reddick of Bowling for Soup and Tim Armstrong of Rancid. But not only the name has changed, the group's sound changed as well, there are only very few, if any, Hip Hop references. The majority of the songs are now rock-driven. They currently have their own show on Fuse entitled "The Brooklyn Way" which premiered in April 2008. Official website: http://www.thelordz.com/
