In 1991 Xinxo and fellow Xicano emcee 2Mex started the progressive hip hop group "Of Mexican Descent". Soon after their conception, OMD became an integral part of a sect of Los Angeles underground hip hop based around Midcity's groundbreaking Goodlife Cafe Open Mic that spawned innovators and hit makers from The Freestyle Fellowship to The Pharcyde to Skee-Lo to Jurassic 5. With underground classics such as "I Am Still" and "Money Is Meaningless" their debut EP "Exitos Y Mas Exitos" became an inspiration to thousands around the world. Armed only with grassroots promotion, intense touring and uncontrollable creativity, OMD became a staple of west coast underground hip hop. Since his initial forays into music with OMD, Xololanxinxo has recorded numerous solo albums including "Tapes from a Stolen Car (The Victim)", "Marketing the Monsters", "People Kill the Person" and "Names". Today Xololanxinxo continues to create innovative and provocative music, now with a band called Toca that he created with psychedelic fusion musicians Anonymous Inc. and multi-instrumentalist Tommy V. With such an interesting array of projects ahead it seems as though nothing will stop Xololanxinxo from putting his brand of eclecticism on the map. |
