Allow me some time to consider this; I need to process this information before responding.
The phrase "let me" often reduces to "lemme" where the 't' sound is omitted and the words blend. Additionally, the 't' in "about it" changes to a quick 'd' sound (flapping) because it falls between vowel sounds.
