This was his first go at signing his name to a high profile SEMA project, so not a day went by where he felt relief from the ever-present stinging pressure.

“I had help from close friends, my brother and his friends LOLO and Peyton, and my sister was cool enough to go on countless beer runs for us.”Įven though that all sounds like a good time, there was still that deadline hanging over Oscar’s head. “Many hands contributed to this build,” Oscar says. THE C10’S INTERIOR HAS BEEN COMPLETELY MODERNIZED WITH KILLER DASH WORK, DAKOTA DIGITAL GAUGES, UPGRADED PIECES OF HARDWARE AND TMI CUSTOM SEATING. The truck has humble beginnings and has an encouraging story of friendship and camaraderie to tell. Oscar is more than capable in the garage, but to build a truck like the one he set out to create, he had to lean on a solid supporting cast to whip his old Chevy pickup into shape. Luckily, he didn’t find himself alone in the trenches. I had help from close friends, my brother and his friends LOLO and Peyton, and my sister was cool enough to go on countless beer runs for us.” “Up to this point, I’ve always helped others with their builds, and never needed to rely on help from others,” Oscar says. Oscar Leon found himself in the deep end while getting his C10 ready to debut at the 2018 SEMA show, and experienced for himself the excruciating pressure of the “crunch.” With a set deadline in early November, builders around the country are forced to have their project builds completed and buttoned up somewhere around Halloween to ensure timely delivery to the big show in Las Vegas. So although Slightly Stoopid may not be the typical “rap review” for us, it’s an album I can easily recommend.The “SEMA Crunch”-you hear about it every year, but it really is a thing. There’s nothing too heavy from this group – they just jam out and ask you to come along for the ride. Any rap fan who appreciates a reggae sound and stylee will be down with songs like “Marijuana” though featuring Don Carlos, and on the whole “Top of the World” excuse a real cool and irie feeling. Love on “Hiphopppablues” – what he’s doing here certainly isn’t a rap. If you had to pick an overriding theme for the group though it would definitely be Carribean, and their collaboration with Barrington Levy on the song “Ur Love” certainly seems to back that up.Īlthough their newfound infatuation with hip-hop has been professed by them and others, only two specific rap collaborations can be found on “Top of the World” – famed Jurassic 5 emcee Chali 2na on “Just Thinking” and the outside the box stylings of G. And yet just when you think you’ve got them pegged, the grooves of “Way You Move” will make you think of a 1990’s alternative or rock act like Blind Melon or Blues Traveler.

Less than four minutes later they’re funking it up on the “Devil’s Door,” a song that could be the soundtrack to any 1970’s movie or TV show.

Take “Don’t Stop” for example – if you didn’t know anything about their history and heard this song as a one-off, you might assume that Slightly Stoopid were either from Jamaica or hang out with a whole lotta rastas. They’ve even been called “psychedelic rock” by some observers – they’re fairly hard to pin to just one sound. It would not be that far of a stretch for the Stoopid dudes to reach out to hip-hop, since their sound already embraces reggae, funk, blues and punk among oher genres.

San Diego jam band Slightly Stoopid might seem an odd choice for us to review, but even the so-called free encyclopedia says on their Guru before his passing.
