Latyrx is a hip hop music group consisting of Lateef the Truth Speaker and Lyrics Born. The roots of their partnership lay in the formation of the Solesides collective at theUniversity of California, Davis. Lyrics Born and Lateef the Truthspeaker started out as the group, Latyrx, as part of Quannum Projects back in the day. They put out Latyrx: The Album and The Muzapper’s Remixes and appeared on Quannum Spectrum — all of which spawned classics like, “Balcony Beach”, “Lady Don’t Tek No”, “Storm Warning” and the titular track, “Latyrx”. Cited as one of the most influential, original and innovative hip-hop groups of the late 90′s, Latyrx was infamous for their creative style and unique rhymes and phrasing.

Lyrics Born and Lateef the Truthspeaker will be re-uniting as the mighty LATYRX this August for the first time in over 10 years at the 4th Annual Outside Lands Music Festival in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park.
