Camp Lo's uptown Saturday night

Rivers, Patrick, 1984-2017
Book
Two emcees from the Bronx, NY entered the American hip-hop landscape of the mid-1990s with comprehensive insider slang that bewildered as they radiated the look of a bygone era of black culture. Geechie Suede and Sonny Cheeba are the members of Camp Lo. In 1996, they collaborated with producer Ski and a host of other hip-hop recordists to create Uptown Saturday Night, which featured the seminal single 'Luchini (a.k.a. This is It)'. In the mid-1990s, hip-hop contained an assortment of sounds and imagery, into which Camp Lo inserted a concentrated dose of 1970s Blaxploitation culture.
