Various – Lowrider – Secret Soul Of Los Angeles

Description

Dive into the vibrant Los Angeles East Side culture with the “Lowrider” compilation album, a tribute to the world of custom cars, Chicano culture, and the smooth sounds that soundtrack this distinctive lifestyle. Developed in the 1950s and ’60s, Lowrider culture involves Latino youths customizing their cars and cruising the boulevards, accompanied by a fusion of black and brown soul, doo-wop, and smooth group harmony music.

This album celebrates the genre-defining masterpieces that have become the soundtrack to a resurgence in California street soul, popularized by icons like Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg and featured in media like Grand Theft Auto and Breaking Bad.
