The group has four members namely Tomi Thomas (Tomi), BolajiLadipo (Yungkwtf), OladeBrisbe (Briss), and Winner Foster (Bridge) and the name LOS means Loud on sound.

Skales is working on his album watch out!!!
 Burna Boy: They call him “Burna! Bway!” Whenever that name is heard in Port Harcourt everywhere goes GAGA. DaminiOgulu aka Burna Boy has made him self a fast rising star with two solid mixtapes and four singles which have shaken Nigeria. This days if you are not telling your neighbour “ABEG ABEGABEG” your doing that ”Wombolombo Something “ or in the club“ Touching your Toes” and if your not doing any of the above then your surely blowing your “Trumpet”. Watch out for Port Harcourt`s new first son.
 Brymo: OlawaleOlashimi aka Brymo signed to chocolate city and a renowned choc boi is definitely one of our next biggest exports. The king of hooks and mysterious voice behind hit song “Oleku” showed he wasn`t just all about hooks when he released his single “Ara”. Now everyone wants to do a cover to the hit single and with the video of crisp quality already doing well on the charts, Brymo is definitely going to be next in line and go international like his fellow choc bois.
 May D: If P-square should quietly snatch your signature then you should know you are a jewel and so is “Mr May d”. Arguably the best vocalist in Nigeria and with hit single Soundtrack and a good video for the song out May D has made it clear that he’s not going anywhere and cemented this further with his follow up single “Ile Ijo”. Indeed May D is a sure boy and a successful album is expected soon.
 Chidinma: Project fame winner and sexy diva Chidinma has arrived and definitely for good. Just 21 years of age her amazing vocals endeared the public to her first single Jankoliko, which featured Sound sultan and that wasn`t just all. She followed up with Kedike, which is also a radio friendly jam and good videos for both singles already on your television screens, what makes you think the females aren`t ready to break in to the market and break in big. Go girl this is your year!
 Olamide: “Holla baby its Ola baby!” This coded tunes dude isn`t going back any bit. After successfully releasing his debut album Rhapsody last year, one would have thought the confirmed “Yahoo Boy No Laptop” would have slowed down but not at all. He quickly came up with Ile ifo Illuminati which is loved by the streets and quickly followed that up with Unite featuring H-code. Definitely Olamide is here to stay. All I will say is “Na 14 years if Fashola catch you”
