Artist Portrait

Shawn Lov


Hip-Hop/Rap

Shawn Lov began his career as a recording artist in NJ with the release of his first LP 'Speak of the Devil' in 1994, which led to guest appearances including Video Music Box (1994-1995), performing as the opener for Mobb Deep, King Sun, Big Pun and Ol' Dirty Bastard (1995), and as a musical guest on The Jenny Jones Show (1998). By 1997, Shawn Lov was collaborating with the legendary Hip-Hop producer Tony D (of Poor Righteous Teachers and YZ fame) which led to the release of his second LP 'The G.O.D.' in 1998. It wasn’t until Shawn Lov dropped his 'Never Never Land' LP in 2000 that he began topping charts online and quickly gained an underground following which expanded even further following his partnership with overseas label Nuffsaid. In 2004 'The Blackout of 1977' was released on Nuffsaid Records and introduced Shawn Lov to an international audience, followed up by the critically acclaimed 'Waiting for a Ghost' in 2007 which received praise by Rolling Stone magazine. In 2010 Shawn independently released 'The S.O.N.' - a self-produced EP to show and prove that he can hold his own on the boards as well as the mic. In 2016 Shawn released his final LP 'Escape from Never Never Land' a follow-up to the original LP he released almost two decades earlier. In 2019 Shawn Lov returned with the post-retirement EP 'Postcards from the Bay' proving he is still one of rawest, most impassioned rappers in the underground.
