LMFAO is a famous American electro-hop duo that was founded in 2006 by Redfoo DJ (Stefan Kandal Gordy) and Sky Blu rapper (Skyler Hasten Gordy).
In relation to each other, Stefan and Skyler are not just members of the same duet or friends, but kindred spirits - their identical surnames tell us about this. Stefan is Skyler's uncle.
LMFAO: what does this abbreviation mean in translation?
Relatives, united by a thirst for music, decide to create their own duet LMFAO, which means in the literal translation “I laugh so that my ass falls off” (from the English Laughing My Fucking Ass Off). An alternative translation of the abbreviation is "I laugh so much that I even fall on my ass." If translated into Russian, we get "I fall from laughter."
Creation of LMFAO
Many popular songs are created under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Rumor has it that the famous single “Du hast” was written by Till Lindemann in an inadequate condition. But the statement that the song was written under drugs or alcohol is completely true. Surely it occurred to you that the uncle and nephew duet was named so high. But in fact, the drug case is not for LMFAO. The translation, of course, looks strange, but the name of the duet originates from another channel. Once Skyler Gordy talked with his grandmother on the Internet. Sky Blu was very impressed with the correspondence with his relative. This online conversation gave rise to the name of the duet with the cheerful abbreviation LMFAO.
Together, Redfoo and Sky Blu on July 1 in 2008 released their first album, which was called "Party Rock on the iTunes Store." The duet is very successful, and already in November, his uncle and his tribe create a contract with the Interscope label. Young performers conquer the audience with fiery singles and music videos. The image of the duet participants is characterized by unusual and bright costumes, sometimes even ridiculous. There are even frequent cases when the duet participants went on stage in their underwear and sneakers. LMFAO continued its existence not for long.
Duo breakup
Sky Blu and Redfoo in their duet simultaneously serve as DJs, rappers, dancers and producers. The theme of LMFAO is eternal fun. The duet has gained great popularity among young people. However, in 2012, the LMFAO duet breaks up, which means the end of joint concerts and album releases. Sky Blu and Redfoo decide to go in different directions.
Before the breakup, the songs of the group were constantly spinning at discos. In each company of youth, one could hear a joke about “I'm sexy and i know it” - words from a song that is called exactly the same. This single was in second place on the US charts (Billboard Hot 100). The fiery rhythms of LMFAO songs will forever remain in the hearts of students and schoolchildren, which means confidence in the immortality of the duet of the cheerful uncle Stefan and his nephew Skyler.
