Two blocks away from his Harlem home, 88-Keys sits back and recalls the day Q-Tip introduced him to a little detroiter named Jay-Dee during a Beats, Rhymes and Life recording session. Back in 1994, Dilla hadn’t accomplished much yet, but somehow skillz recognized skillz, and 88 gave him a beat-tape with his beeper number on it…

NB : if you’re from Newark and remember jacking this guy’s backpack in the mid-90’s, you might be the owner of the greatest Dilla beat-tapes collection ever. Unless you recorded some bad boy shit on them or just threw these no-rap tapes away.

This album is a collaborative effort by Nashville native Count Bass D and his long time Baltimore friend DJ Pocket, who has recently decided to add MCing to his list of musical endeavors. Both Count and Pocket are djays & producers but, they chose to let their selections do the walking on this LP. “In The Loop” is one of many albums that are set to be released between the two of them, as they pride themselves on “Activity” being their motto in 2010.

Press Release + Tracklist:

Bloodlust 2 is the definitive MarQ Spekt record. A step above everything released thus far. This project features the reclusive veteran rhyming along side some of his generations finest MC’s including Karniege, Messiah, Vordul Mega, Sean Price, J-Live, Stahhr the Empress, Thirstin Howl 3rd, Broady Champs, C-Rayz Walz, John Robinson, Skit Slam, Dynas and more.

MarQ Spekt presents… Bloodlust Vol. 2 (FREE DOWNLOAD)

Those who have followed the “Broady Champ” since the late 90’s and kept your eyes to the ground during Spekt’s J..D. Salinger-esque hiatus from the game, finally have what they have been waiting for. Bloodlust 2 is a labor of love and the first album to hand anyone who wants to know what he MarQ Spekt is about. Barbwire rhymes, scrunch your face up verses, the “grilchiness” that you’ve been missing.

A lot of variety and styles on this mixtape, yet it serves as only an appetizer to 2 upcoming Spekt solo projects The Scalpel and Persona Non Grata as well as follow up Broady Champs, Invizzibl Men and random verses scattered throughout 2010. The Future of HipHop comes from someone with a deep grasp of that grimy 90’s era. This is Hoody music, anti tight jeans, bringing back some testosterone to the game. follow the kid @marcusrespekt for twitter rants or www.thegrittycommittee.com
