The Chicago based trio Alert312 is made up by 3 musical brothers who have channeled their eclectic roots and faith to craft genuine sonic and visual art. Now in their 3rd season of creative endeavors, the music is mature and expresses the mash up of culture that continues to influence their sound. Authentic live performance is their muse. Faith in Christ is core to their creative motivation. A percussive core drives their energy. Live analogue recording blankets their sound. All three members – Esteban Shedd // "EB" (MC), Aaron Lopez // "MRL ONE" (DRUMMER/DJ/PRODUCER) & Loren La Luz // "Lolo" ( PERCUSSIONIST) touch multiple instruments to mash their sonic offerings together – a mofongo of heart, soul and lyrical depth. These are the ingredients of their sound – street funk, progressive Hip Hop yet unashamedly Golden era and ethnic. Experience the live set, grab the sounds, peep their heart. Great craft takes time to mature, the best offerings are now here from the trio.

They have released six studio albums: Alert (2009), Indian Colors (2010), Of Vice & Virtue (2013), The Upside Eternal (2015), Joy King Supreme (2018) and Out of the Tension... Comes Beauty (2020). They have released two extended plays: Red Opus .45 (2011) and Singular Vision (2014).

Background

The Christian hip hop duo of MC Boogalu, whose name is Esteban Paul Shedd (born April 4, 1983),[1][2] and DJ Moral One, whose name is Aaron Daniel Lopez (born February 25, 1983),[3][4] met while they were students at Moody Bible Institute in Chicago, Illinois, where they both graduated in 2006,[5] eventually forming the duo in 2009.[6] The duo started out as Alert, yet changed their name to Alert312 to make their music easily identifiable, with the 312 part of their name taken from the local telephone area code.[7][8] They run a ministry in Chicago called Streetlights to facilitate literacy development while instilling and infusing biblical values alongside.[5] This ministry is part of a greater organization, GRIP Outreach for Youth, where Shedd is a project director,[9] and Lopez is an assistant manager.[10] Shedd is married and has a son, and all three are members of Armitage Baptist Church.[9] Lopez is married to Susana, and both are members of New Life Community Church in Near West Side (Tri-Taylor).[10]
