June 19, 2007, New York, NY- The Lords of the Underground’s new Album entitled- House of Lords is one of the most prolific albums that you will ever listen to. With Platinum hits such as: „Chief Rocka“ and „Here Come the Lords“ the Lords of the Underground have proven themselves; they’re one of Hip-Hop’s most inspiring, trend setting groups. House of Lords will be in stores Aug. 21, 2007 on Affluent Records/ Redeye Distribution.

Funke Man from Lords of the Underground says, „Hip hop ain’t dead it just ain’t being made.“ The new record showcases single after single. From „I Love Hip-Hop,“ „The Clinic“ and „What Is An MC“… the record features soulful rap combined with ghetto power that will get you on your feet! „The Clinic“ is the answer to the hit song from Nas, „Hip-Hop is dead.“ It’s the Lords of the Underground’s attempt to revive the cultural Hip-Hop trend. „I Love Hip-Hop“ is for diehard fans. The song showcases LOTUG’s vibrant originality.

LOTUG has been touring Europe for over 8 years. They’ve showed the other side of the world what Hip-Hop really represents. Now it’s America’s turn to take the ride. Their first single „I Love Hip-Hop“ is old school meets new school with a twist.

The Lords of the Underground have placed one special all access pass to the first Hip-Hop event byKool Herc. With this pass the winner will receive an all expense paid trip to the South of France to see one of the Lords of the Underground’s exclusive performances. This very special trip is dedicated to all the fans for their loyalty and support throughout the years.

Lords of the Underground member Dooitall was featured on the last episode of the hit show The Sopranos. He was the final lead character that drove the viewer into the suspenseful ending of the season. Look for Doitall in the New film Cash Rules which also stars Treach of Naughty By Nature and J.D.(Bodie) Williams of HBO’s Wire Fame.
