| About twenty years ago, two artists from Pontiac, Michigan named |
| One Be Lo and Senim Silla joined forces to form the group Binary |
| Star. After releasing their album, Masters of the Universe, they |
| split before releasing a proper follow up. They finally released a |
| new EP in 2013, but Silla soon split after that. However, One Be Lo |
| decided to keep using the name, releasing an album with Decompoze |
| called Water World 3 in 2017. Now, Binary Star has fully |
| transformed from the idea of two artists orbiting each other to the |
| two sides of one artist orbiting each other as One Be Lo works with |
| his production alias OneManArmy. Not only that, but they now |
| release two albums at once to orbit each other, LIGHTY and EARS |
| APART. |
| |
| The simple explanation to these two albums would be to say that |
| LIGHTY is the fun album, full of clever wordplay and shit talking, |
| and EARS APART is the serious album, discussing social justice |
| issues. Of course, things aren't that simple, and One Be Lo created |
| this albums to be in conversation with each other, to complement |
| each other, and to orbit each other so that from a distance the |
| line starts to blur between the two albums. From a big picture |
| perspective, it might seem as though One Be Lo is doing everything |
| himself, but that's far from the case. He's bringing in live |
| instrumentation, he's got Autocons co-producing tracks, and we get |
| features from SayWut, DJ King David, Bre Maa, Gwaii, Obed Sucarri, |
| Courtney Wheaton-Peck, Wayman, Jason Berry, DJ Virus, CoCo |
| Buttafli, DMT, Kodac, and RoSpit. This is all to say that the |
| albums have a live, family affair feel to them. Everybody's on the |
| bus, One Be Lo is just the one driving. The albums can sound grim |
| and sober when they need to, especially when Lo is delving into the |
| hardships he faced when he was younger. The albums can also get |
| soulful and funky, especially when Lo is talking about building |
| towards a better future. It's not anything that hasn't been done |
| before, but that doesn't mean that it's easy to pull off. One Be Lo |
| has been at this a long time, though, and he knows how to switch up |
| his flows and how to layer his lyricism, but he also knows when |
| it's time to drop everything and just be straightforward and honest |
| with his listeners. It's all about finding the balance, and that's |
| exactly what One Be Lo has found with these two albums. |
