Lloyd: Get it Shawty

Get It Shawty

For R&B singer Lloyd Polite, success is not taken lightly. Singing has always been natural for this New Orleans native because he comes from a musical background. His mother played piano and sang in the church choir, while his father directed the choir and played saxophone. His parent’s was the inpiration for him to pursue music. As a pre-teen he was signed with a group and got to experience the spot light but by the age of 14, the R&B trio, Ntoon, was disband and he moved to Decatur, GA where he finished high school.

Now, this 20- year old singer and songwriter is debuting his sophomore album, Street Love. The new album is a healthy blend of old school flavor, flawless vocals and stellar production by Big Reese J-Lack, and none other than Jazze Phizzle himself.

I must say this album shocked me. I didn’t expect it to be this good and his latest single “Get it Shawty” is more than good. The song makes you want to bob your head from the first note and dance by the time the hook hits. Even though the hook is pretty basic by just saying “Get it Shawty” …it works. The bass and the echo techno sound make this a club hit!


The video is not that shabby either. The shoot consists of only three scenes but it backs up what this song is…something to dance to. I give Mr. Polite a big B.
