In the world of hip hop, San Diego doesn't even register a blip on the grand scale of things. In the world of San Diego, you don't matter unless you blink 182 times. In a city that lives until the 23rd hour, the lack of nocturnal sleep has left the music scene aching for a breakout of epic proportions. With such anticipation comes the chance for an eccentric opportunity. This scene was about to get an unusual revival.
Enter El Gun Legro- a mythical throwback to the time when real hip hop made sense, when comedy was more innovative- less formulaic, when pop was more in your face than Myspace. A lyrical virtuoso in his own right, El Gun Legro is shaking up this industry invested in a pretty face, tight jeans, and techno breakdowns. Since emerging onto the San Diego scene in early 2006, he has fashioned a niche of his own when none other existed. EGL has accumulated hardcore underground fans from the left coast to the beast coast who yearn for his blunt lyrics and precision. His lack of conformity to the definition of the San Diego music scene has got everyone tuned in from local emcees to breakout stars. His lyrical comicality has bonded hip hop fans and emo royalty up and down the California coast.His conspicuous approach to legitimate topics is giving his cult following belief in the scene's potential.
2009 will be the takeover of El Gun Legro. The music scene you once thought was figured out has received a metamorphosis. EGL will drain your ipod battery and you will love him for it. His breakdowns will leave you battered and still thirsting for more. The question is where will he leave your bruises next?
