This is Michael Mixerr. This afternoon I will review Foe Loco - Them Indians.
Them Indians was an album, or rather EP, that was released independently on cassette only in 1992 in the Sacramento, California area. Them Indians is a fine example of Native American hip hop and rap as Foe Loco is an Apache Indian. A limited amount of copies of this cassette were pressed up making Them Indians a rarity among collectors of Sacramento rap. Foe Loco was influenced by the dark sounds of gangsta rap and Native American hip hop when writing this album.
Them Indians has that dark sound which is prevalent in horrorcore rap. Foe Loco discusses and raps about the problems Native American Indians face on the title track Them Indians. Foe Loco was influenced by the dark sounds of gangsta rap and Native American hip hop when writing this song and album.
You can hear the dark early sounds of that horrorcore ripgut cannibalism rap that Brotha Lynch Hung would become well known for on Hold’em At Gun Point. Gangsta rap meets horrorcore rap with a dark negative vibe on Hold’em At Gun Point. The sound quality and production quality is rather dated and low due to the fact it was recorded in a home studio in 1992. Hold’em At Gun Point a Foe Loco and Brotha Lynch Hung song as Hold’em At Gun Point is considered to be one of their rare early recordings.
I rate this album, Them Indians, 4/5****!
