Lou the Human (born November 13, 1995) is an American rapper and producer from Staten Island, New York. The music video for his first song, “Brink”, was uploaded to YouTube on January 4th, 2016. Within days, it had racked up 20,000 views and provided an opportunity for Lou to showcase his lyrical ability to the influx of intrigued listeners.
Lou strengthened the hype surrounding him with the releases of “Macklemore 1” and “Macklemore 2”, which was soon followed up with “Slim Buddha”. In the summer of 2017, Lou performed at Panorama Festival in front of thousands of fans.
Lou the Human’s debut album, Humaniac, was released on October 13, 2017. While there were some negative reviewers who drew parallels between Lou and Eminem’s cadence, claiming that the 21-year-old had copied his flow, a larger majority argued that Eminem was simply an influence and that it was a testament to Lou’s technical ability that comparisons had been made in the first place.
