Krazye Loko came together in Dallas in the late 1990s. The group included DJ Krazye, Loko Loc, Yung $crim, Yung $pec, and Allen Halloween. They started playing local clubs while trying to get noticed in a scene that already had plenty of established acts.
Their music drew attention for its explicit lyrics and violent imagery, which led to accusations that they were glorifying gang culture. Critics called their work a negative influence, and their shows sometimes brought protests and police. The band defended their approach as artistic expression.
Their debut album 'Haterz' came out in 2000, with the title track featuring Allen Halloween. That song became one of their best-known pieces. They followed it with albums like 'The Lunatic Asylum' in 2002 and 'The Psychotic Realm' in 2004. Other tracks in their catalog include 'Drillz' with CemManha and 'Glock'.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
