Big Lou Nominated for a Record 4 Underground Music Awards

CAMDEN, NJ (Lost City Records) - Rapper Big Lou will be leading the way at the 4th annual Underground Music Awards with an unprecedented 4 nominations including "Song of the Year" for the underground smash "Takin Over." Other categories Big Lou was nominated for include "Best Live Performance," Best Male Rapper," and "Most Original Male Solo Artist."

"Obviously, the nominations are a tribute to my fans. I don't do this for awards. I do this for the love of the game," said Big Lou when notified of his nomination. And he certainly is right. Big Lou boasts over 22,000 fans on MySpace and countless others on the streets of Camden, Philadelphia and New York. "I hate to sound cliché, but the man has a serious buzz. People don't just hear his music, they're feeling it," said Big Lou's manager Frank Urban. That may be an understatement considering that in just over 7 months, Big Lou has become the number 1 ranked Independent Artist on MySpace in the Rap, Hip Hop, and Freestyle categories for the entire state of New Jersey.

"As long as my music is respected on the streets, the rest is gravy. There's a lot of people out there who believe in what I represent. I am their voice. These awards aren't a badge of honor. They just open doors and create a bigger platform for me to spread my gospel. The way I see it is, if I win then real Hip Hop wins," adds Big Lou.
