Everyone in LA knows Dr Hollywood whether they know it yet or not.  If you’ve been to the Staples Center or Dodger Stadium, if you listen to Power 106 and KIIS FM or watch ESPN and KTLA you’ve probably heard “We Run LA” which has become a modern anthem for everything Los Angeles.  Their sound bridges the gap between hip hop, electronic, dance and pop music which is probably why it’s so popular in clubs and bars.  The band’s own bio says it best, “There’s broken glass on the floor, smoke in the air, and panties on the lampshade; someone must be listening to Dr. Hollywood…”

Louie Rubio and Lex Larson, two Los Angeles natives, met in high school and eventually formed Dr Hollywood to produce and write for local talent.  Add grammy-winner Richard “Segal” Huredia (Britney Spears, Eminem, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Hannah Montana) to the equation and you get Dr Hollywood’s brand of dance-rock, hip hop, and 80′s style synth-pop songs that DJ’s love to call their favorite.  Hip Hop artists such as B Real, Too Short, and Obie Trice others have collaborated with the Dr for the band’s upcoming debut full length, Halfway To Paradise: Departures.  They recently recorded a music video for their most popular track and changed the title and chorus to “We Run the Club” which will presumably have the same success as the original but on a much larger scale, even a worldwide scale.  Soon it could be “We Run Las Vegas,” “We Run Ibiza,” We Run Tokyo,” and it all started with LA.
