Spanglish Boom-Bap trio Grupo HNE have dropped a new single this morning. "LO Malo" translates to "the bad" and since the track has a guest feature from the legendary polorican himself, Thirstin Howl The 3rd and the group is part of the Lo-Life Miami Family, it's apparent why the LO is capitalized in the title. Grupo HNE (pronounced Henny) is made up of DJ Exes on the mic, DJ Heron on production and multi-instrumentalist Nando who adds percussion, keyboards and occasional vocals.
Speaking on the track's creation, Exes relayed "Thirstin picked the beat, which reminded me of a 70's gangster / spy type movie. I attacked it from the perspective of a trench coat wearing, aviator sunglasses rockin', cigar smoking salsero, writing an entry in his journal, which will one day be a best-seller. Once my verse was done I sent it off to Thirstin and he bodied it like the beat killer that he is. All that was left was for Nando to lace it with congas to give it that chef's kiss. The result is ...LO Malo."
