Sales Information:

Quite A Life features a legendary line-up of guest musicians, including the heavily
buzzing artist Aloe Blacc ("Brooklyn In the Summer", "I Need a Dollar", Avicii's
"Wake Me Up"), Del Tha Funkee Homosapien, Gift of Gab (of Blackalicious),
Galactic, and Chali 2na (of Jurassic 5). LB comments, “Aloe was incredible. I've
known him for 20 years and watching his career develop has been super inspiring.
I couldn't have asked for a better line-up - I'm very thankful to all of them and am
here whenever they need me.”
Quite A Life also embraces and ruminates on the hurdles that have followed
Lyrics Born through his life and career -- Asian-American representation in the
entertainment industry, the responsibility of men to help correct social imbalance,
the massive complications and emotional strain that follow a loved ones cancer
diagnoses, and even defining what it means to be a "Blue Collar Artist".
“Ten albums is a lot for an indie artist who has always colored outside the
lines” says Lyrics Born. “Because Asian-Americans are perhaps the most
underrepresented ethnic group in show business, I have had almost no footsteps to
follow in over the years. This is why I'm so honored to be one of the emergent
among us to be able to co-create that legacy. I don't want it to be as difficult for
others that look like me, whose names end in vowels like me, as it has been for
myself. I'm just appreciative there was always somehow a path for me, no matter
how impossible it seemed, either on paper or in practice. We have greatness to
contribute to the world, and we're finally seeing breakthroughs.”
