NOTIZIE PRINCIPALI
The sound of Treologic can only be described as completely original: a slick mix of hip hop, jazz, gospel, reggae/dub house, rock, soul, and funk. The lyrical stylings of Billa Camp are a mix of new and old hip-hop, drawing influence from groups like Tribe Called Quest, NWA, Black Thought of the Roots, Common Sense, Talib Kawli and even Eminem. Jordan Lopez provides the smooth vocal tips that give Treologic that reggae/ Sublime flava - somewhere his voice smooths over from Sade to Bob Marley but the sweetness is what gets ya on each hook. The sound that Joe Arteaga, Anthony Massaro, and Lance Loiselle produce behind him is a chameleon: sounding somehwhere between Soullive and Medeski Martin and Wood, often morphing into a breakbeat right off the turntable of Mix Master Mike or sometimes breaking into a smooth hook that would fool the industry standard. DJ Savage adds in his scratching, beeps, and chirps to give it that true hip hop flava, and you have the making of a legend that aims to change music as we listen to it.
