Milo Z discography The album is called Throwback because in a sense that's what the record is! With 12 original tracks and 2 covers by Bill Withers, the music, songs, sound and feel, will bring you back to the groovy soul singing funky groups of the 70's. Along with autobiographical lyrics from the artist experiences growing up on New York City's Lower East Side during that time! From energetic Party Funk songs that will get you up and dancing to Bluesy dark swamp grooves and classic old school R & B, to Rock/Soul grooves with a touch of Hip Hop, the album is well rounded yet still maintains a soulful consistent theme from beginning to end. If you dig real music played on real instruments by real musicians who love to Get Down, Sweat and Funk it up! You will dig this record Baby Bubba! So give a listen and break out your dancing shoes!

Occasionally, this '70s-minded funk singer raps, but that is Milo's only acknowledgment of '80s and '90s tastes.
