a compilation featuring a number of artists from the label's roster. In the meantime, he continued to work on his solo material with producer Decompoze. In late 2002, One Be Lo decided to press limited copies of Project F.E.T.U.S. (a backronym for "For Everybody That Under Stands"), a collection of songs that were not initially intended for release. 2005: S.O.N.O.G.R.A.M. and S.T.I.L.L.B.O.R.N. After the success of Project F.E.T.U.S, the disc sold thousands of copies, he would later complete his next project titled S.O.N.O.G.R.A.M. (Sounds Of Nahshid Originate Good Rhymes And Music). He approached Fat Beats Records to press a single to help promote the album, and they gave him a different offer. They asked me to send them the song I was thinking about using for the single, and I was like, "If they're doing the 12-inch, I'll let them pick the song." So I just sent them the whole album...They hit me back like, "We don't want to do a 12-inch. We want to do the whole album." Lo signed with Fat Beats for distribution in 2003, and the label asked him to change his name from OneManArmy to avoid legal troubles with a similarly named punk band. He changed his name to OneBeLo since he had used that with F.E.T.U.S. He would later go to Mecca, Saudi Arabia on Hajj, an Islamic tradition to find one's self. Meanwhile, Fat Beats pushed back S.O.N.O.G.R.A.M. until 2005. S.O.N.O.G.R.A.M. featured a number of fellow Michigan rappers such as Abdus Salaam and singer Ka Di. The album was critically acclaimed and sold about 12,000 copies within Lo's first few weeks on tour. Many praised One Be Lo for his conscious and intelligent lyrics. With two projects in tow, Lo landed tours and major festivals, rocking 160 shows per year between 2005 and 2007. In American Pie 6, this album is on the wall of the principal actor, Erik Stifler. 2007: The R.E.B.I.R.T.H. Lo moved his family to Egypt to expose them to a non-American perspective. Once he saw personnel changes at Fat Beats when he arrived back years later, he worked his way out of his deal and self-released The R.E.B.I.R.T.H. (Real Emcees Bring Intelligent Rhymes To Hip-Hop). The R.E.B.I.R.T.H. symbolizes several turning points in OneBeLo's life. He recorded the album after the death of his daughter. Lo collaborated with beatmakers like Lab Techs, Jake One, Memo (of the Molemen), and others.
