Album Review: LMFAO – Sorry For Party Rocking

They shouldn’t be sorry for rocking the party. LMFAO music is the hardcore electro-club banging music. LMFAO is an American electro hop duo that formed in 2006 in Los Angeles, California. The members consist of DJs Redfoo (Stefan Kendal Gordy), born on September 3, 1975 and SkyBlu (Skyler Husten Gordy), born on August 23, 1986. They are the son and grandson, respectively, of Motown record label founder Berry Gordy, making them uncle and nephew. The name LMFAO is initials for "Laughing My Fucking Ass Off" and is pronounced letter by letter.



Redfoo and SkyBlu both grew up in the Los Angeles Neighborhood of Pacific Palisades. LMFAO released Party Rock EP on the iTunes music store on July 1, 2008, and released their full album on July 7, 2009. The album charted at number 33 on the Billboard 200 and number two on the U.S Dance Chart. Their first single was "I'm in Miami Bitch", which was released in December 2008, and peaked at No.51 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No.37 in Canada Weeks. The song was signed to CR2 recordy television show ‘Kourtney and Khloé Take Miami and "Get Crazy" was used for Jersey Shore in 2009.



Sorry For Party Rocking album is consist of 10 electro rock beat tracks. Everybody will groove on the electro and techno synthesizer riffs atop smooth but urgent disco beats. What formulates LMFAO job better than most alike’ aimed groups is their enthusiastic sense of consciousness as exactly what they are. They create feel-good party tune with a club vibe, but oppose rehashing old hits for cheap recognition. Their music is the hard core of electro-clubbing tunes. You can’t help but groove and dance to their beats. I assure you, this tune will give you sweat!



Most of their songs were written about party going and celebrate a feel good life. Most of the lyrics were naughty but the beats are dramatically addictive. Track "Sexy And I Know It" manages to sound over a boom-stomp bass and beat combo and burping synch that drops my boredom. The song feels like a modern, less obnoxious, talking up their physique between the hilarious hook, "I got passion in my pants / And I ain't afraid to show it / I'm sexy and I know it". Their easy going performance goes a long way to create the celebratory atmosphere they are after, even on their beat stomping ode to basketball, "Take It To The Hole", with a rapid-fire appearance from Busta Rhymes. 



The echoing storm of bass and icy sheets of sync of restlessly shifting "Party Rock Anthem" and the grubby speaker box melody of "Sorry For Party Rocking" deliver the party promised in their titles, as they wager, "Let's go drink for drink / A hundred bucks, she won't outlast us". "All Night Long" is a killer throwback to the drippy R&B ballads of the eighties, losing none of their goofy charm, "She's outa space like Anikan / Body like a mannequin / Sipping on a girly drink". Piercing auto-tune backing vocals from Natalia Kills "Champagne Showers", but the thrusting synch and pulsating dance beat make it another dance hit waiting to happen, on an album overflowing with them.

This album of LMFAO is indeed an explosive collection of fuelled dance hits. LMFAO prove more than capable of delivering pop hits with the best of them.
