Sweden's Looptroop laid their roots when hip hop was not yet the global movement it is today. In the mid 1990s, most European hip hop was little more than a bleak copy of the American template, but Promoe, Supreme, CosM.I.C and DJ Embee forged a new identity that was international in its scope while simultaneously reflecting their own unique position in the world.
Following numerous cassette and vinyl releases on their own David Vs Goliath imprint, they released a series of seminal albums, expanding their scope from 2000's subway manifesto Modern Day City Symphony to 2005's epic state-of-the-continent address Fort Europa.
Now, Promoe, Supreme and DJ Embee are back as the trio Looptroop Rockers (though CosM.I.C is still in the fold as their web designer) with their definitive artistic statement. Good Things is as musically diverse an album as hip hop has produced and finds Looptroop as socially conscious and politically fierce as ever, while maintaining a subliminal feel good vibe.
The first single, "The Building" Is the perfect blend of revolutionary fire and uplifting sonic assault.
