Raushaan Glasgow, better known by his stage name LSDXOXO, is a Berlin-based artist originally from Philadelphia who made a name for himself in New York City as a DJ and producer. Glasgow is known for his energetic DJ sets, of which manipulate mainstream sounds by craftily layering pop tracks and vocal samples between Baltimore club, ghetto house, hardcore, electro and techno.[1] Glasgow's latest effort, an EP entitled Dedicated 2 Disrespect, was released May 14, 2021 on XL Recordings and marks the first time he's used his own voice on a record.[2]

Career[]

Beginnings[]

"Pop culture is certainly one of my main musical and creative influences. I enjoy taking a popular narrative, whether that may be a highly recognizable artist or song, or even samples from a TV show or interview, and flipping them on their head. I guess it’s a way for me to be socially and sometimes politically aware with my sound, without being so overly-conscious or heavy handed on the matter."

—Glasgow on his sound[3]

Born in Philadelphia, Glasgow is of African American and Caribbean Hispanic descent.

Glasgow began making homemade dance edits of Pop and Hip hop hits his Freshman year of high school. Glasgow originally went by "Funky Spunk" and later adopted the LSDXOXO moniker because he said "it sounded like an AIM username, [...] was super troll-y, and that’s just how [he] approached music as an artist".[4]

Glasgow began self-releasing his Spit or Swallow series of mixtapes on Tumblr until he started collaborating with other artists, lending his singular sound to now-established acts like Big Momma and Bbymutha. One of Glasgow's more popular releases is "Truth Tella" which features Cakes da Killa rapping over a chopped and screwed sample of "Lavender Town's theme" from a Pokémon game.

Mixtape success and Dedicated 2 Disrespect[]

After gaining a sizable following on Tumblr and graduating from college with a degree in Business Management,[5] Glasgow found himself in New York., Glasgow began performing in NYC at events like Joey LaBeija’s "Legendary" parties in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and was welcomed into the GHE20G0TH1K collective. Having been touring heavily in Europe, Glasgow moved to Berlin, Germany.[6]

In May 2021, Glasgow released his highly anticipated Dedicated 2 Disrespect EP on XL which contained four tracks that presented his own songwriting and vocals rather than music samples as his previous works have featured.[7]
