MarQ Spekt: Broken Mazes

Saturday, September 8th, 2012

MarQ Spekt went left right after the ‘MacheteVision’ project and hit a home-run. Broken Mazes is ‘Spekt’s cerebral flow over instrumentals from Gary Wilson.

When I was in Atlanta I had a chance to burn it down with ‘Spekt and listen to the project. I’m a let ‘Spekt speak on his project…

“A little teaser for the upcoming Broken Mazes EP. This record is a collaborative between myself and experimental, proto-new wave musician Gary Wilson(Stones Throw)

It’s rare that you get the opportunity to work with the actual artist rather than just sampling the record. Gary opened his vaults and provided ample soundscapes

Some of these instrumentals dating back to 1973 may have been heard before. Others may not. The ending result is a pure creative expression and meshes Hip Hop, Psychedelic, Jazz, Funk…

Soak up the vibrations and Enjoy!”

GOALTRENDING…

Why do I keep killing my body to keep this blog populated? What is it that I can’t go to sleep because I feel like the world needs my fanboy videos? That has to be some form of insanity, possibly acute narcissism. I mean, yeah, people like the videos, but when I die who the fux would care? It doesn’t stop, but I will one day.

That’s why I’m fuxing with this Nike Fuel Band to get me hype for getting myself healthy. I want to do whatever it takes to keep my streak going of daily goals met. It’s a small victory for me since I feel like everything else I’m working on is stuck in a stalemate. At least I can look to my wrist at the end of the day and see the flashing ‘GOAL’ lights.

This is the magic of the Nike mythos of self-empowerment thru rampant consumerism. I spend therefore I am. You should see how morose I become when I can’t spend shit because my account is overdrawn.

Friday, August 17th, 2012

Nike is back on their Disney-esque hype machine steez. The film company funded by Phil Knight, the Swoosh founder is back with another animated feature. Remember Coraline? Well now we have a paranormal sleuth by the name of ParaNorman.

And just like the movie Coraline, Nike is doing an exclusive sneaker release tie-in with the film, but instead of the iconic Dunk style this exclusive release is a hypebeast’s wetdream. The Foamposite.

The Future Of The Rappy Musics…

Wednesday, July 4th, 2012

Sometimes it feels funny to me when I see rap music’s future is to be controlled by non-Blacks, but then I understand that in order to unlock the future the keys must be passed onward.

That is how I felt from the first time I watched a Das Racist music video. This wasn’t about being ‘joke’ rap to me. Das Racist was free to be D.R. at least in their own minds and I dig that.

Das Racist Chicken and Meat video along with an Oprah Winfrey promotion for FREE chicken had me ranting in the streets.

Chicken done did the white folks wrong.

Rafi Kam plugged me to a D.R. show in L.E.S. the same week my young homey RobACK from the midwest made his way to the big city.

We caught the D.R. show and blew trees right on the Orchard Street sidewalk

After the D.R. show I just used to vibe off their earlier shit. I told Rafi Kam, word to Blu Cheez that I wanted to make a fanboy video to the joint ‘Fake Patois’.

It came to me one night in a blinding fury. I worked all night just to make sure I rolled it out immediately.

I got two more D.R. jernts just for how they shit makes me feel.
