Lou Phelps Returns With 7-Track EP “Extra Extra!”
Hailing from Quebec, Canada, Lou Phelps has made quite the name for himself within the Canadian music scene thanks to his funk-inspired hip-hop that always contains some bouncy flows and prime production. For those who don’t know, Phelps is the brother of producer Kaytranada and together they are part of the duo called The Celestics. 2018 was the last time Phelps released a project and now, he is finally back with a 7-track EP called “Extra Extra!”
