Peder Losnegård comes from a gospel/pop-background with a family in music and stumbled into hiphop by accident. He was born in Haugesund on the west coast of Norway and was heavily influenced by his fathers gospel-music. From a very early age, he was known as a talented drummer, but around the age of 10, he started making beats on his dads computer and listened to artists like Kanye West. The sudden change in style happened when an american student (Cody Berkland) moved to Peder's hometown for a short while and was a great influence on him.
The music industry quickly noticed the young talent and through talentshows and concerts around the country, he started to make a name for himself. The first break happened when he performed on a the show "Lydverket" on national tv and signed with Universal Music Norway not long after that. Thing kept rolling and Lido got to be the warm-up act for artists like Snoop Dogg, Bun-B, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Clipse, Madcon and many more.
"LidoLido is the biggest talent to come out of Norway in a long time. His sound is completely current and completely original."
- Stargate
Lido is a selfproclaimed "Good Guy". His lyrics are not explit and he brings a positive point of view into a genre many people concider to be "negative". The most characteristic thing about Lido must be his musical understanding and melodic way of rapping/singing, which makes him appeal to a wide and diverse audience within all ages.
To this very day, Lido does all his own production and writing; a true one-man-band. He also does alot of remixes and production for other artists. His debut album "Pretty Girls & Grey Sweaters" is to be released on Universal Music Norway on February 3rd 2012.

LidoLido Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Rock with me if you live your life
I've had a long day, long day, long week
All work, no play, no sleep/
My boss keep dumping everything on me
But it's all about the money, and this life is not cheap
Excuse me, I don't know who you are
Let me upgrade that thing, whoopie
My dawgs always take it to the roof, Snoopy
Break from reality, oh there goes gravity
Oh theres goes you're boyfriend, oh he's so mad at me
Wow, let's just hang and turn up the life
Till the sun comes up tonight
There's a party at my house
Tell me do you wanna go?
Cause we're going to take it to the max now
And you're looking like wow
You over there, you over there
Hey, I like what you do over there
Gravity cannot hold us down
Cause we make the world go round
Got work in the morning, but I don't care
I'm going to dance until they kick me out of here
We gonna turn this place upside down
Cause we make the world go round
Ladi dadi, hold up shawty
Place so hot, got me feelin like Dali
Beat so crazy, got me feelin like Gnarly
All this candy, got me feelin like Charlie
Wooh, play it superdupercool
Loose the oeey gooey dude
Now what do we do?
Bring your crew, Mary Lou, Huey, Louie too
Skinny shawty need a snack, Scooby Dooby Doo
She just wanna party, yo
My boys chase blondes like Mario
Work it out, work it out now, cardio
You're trying to og, I'm sorry, bro
I'm tired of all the parties
Tired of all the shawties
Tired of being up all night

Tired of all the shawties
Tired of being up all night
