The concept and execution of this project are fucking phenomenal. Krukid conveys his stories and emotion incredibly, and my man Budo is just absolutely disgusting behind the boards. I need the sequel soon.

@ Robbie
Budo is a dope producer. He produced Mr. Lif’s Digi Data on DJX presents 4 and usually works with M.anifest (Wuddup!). He just recently dropped a dope instrumental album called One Bird on a Wire and put an album with Grieves called 88 Keys and Counting. Check those out, as well as the original 6 a.m. (if it can still be found, i know i got it and will pass it on to shake)

This is fucking horrible. anyone reading this comments do NOT download this bullshit. its not the worst thing of all time but if there was an opposite of ‘dope’, this would be it.

BUMPED HALF PAST HELL LIKE 5 TIMES TODAY
marlostanfield85 said this on November 27th, 2009 at 11:47 am
^^
Serious. That song is dope and i can relate to that whole story. Budo’s production reminds me of Ratatat. I would say people should give it a try, its cool if it aint your style but dont knock it til you give it a listen.
xeroth3t3ck said this on November 27th, 2009 at 12:05 pm
COSIGNED XEROTH, THIS ISNT REALLY MY STYLE, BUT THE PRODUCTION IS SO CINEMATIC, AND THE SUBJECT MATTER IS TOTALLY RELATABLE
marlostanfield85 said this on November 27th, 2009 at 12:06 pm
Really feeling the concept execution on this one. Rare to find a story told coherently over such an epic soundscape.

Budo – 6 a.m. Instrumentals http://www.mediafire.com/?z2u2lj3xnmw
xeroth3t3ck said this on November 27th, 2009 at 3:29 pm
xeroth3t3ck- so the original 6 am was just instrumentals? or is there another version with vocals over it?
marlostanfield85 said this on November 27th, 2009 at 3:33 pm
nah it was just instrumentals
xeroth3t3ck said this on November 27th, 2009 at 3:34 pm
thanks for the link my dude. i love finding obscure gems like these
marlostanfield85 said this on November 27th, 2009 at 3:36 pm
I would suggest picking up Budo’s One Bird on a Wire. The album is just as good.
xeroth3t3ck said this on November 27th, 2009 at 3:41 pm
already dling on slsk, good looking out my man
marlostanfield85 said this on November 27th, 2009 at 3:47 pm

xeroth3t3ck said this on November 27th, 2009 at 3:52 pm

marlostanfield85 said this on November 27th, 2009 at 3:53 pm

xeroth3t3ck said this on November 27th, 2009 at 3:58 pm
Wow this Budo’s guys dope. Thanks a lot for the info xero. Man I can’t find Civilized though dammmmnnn I want it! lol
Sunny said this on November 28th, 2009 at 12:19 am
Oh yeah and Budo does production on the M.anifest album The Birds and The Beats, which was just posted on here last week
xeroth3t3ck said this on November 28th, 2009 at 7:19 am
Both of them are just the best at it right now. Budo and Kruk. Man oh man. Between this and the sickness on the A.R.M. project, these dudes are putting down a lot of great work.

Oh Krukid’s nice, been doing his thing. He even murdered Drake on his own shit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gzAku0imN8
killakali said this on November 28th, 2009 at 12:12 pm
Krukid reminds me of Mickey on this EP
xeroth3t3ck said this on November 28th, 2009 at 12:52 pm
hehe, One Jewish guy and an African :). Say, is Africa all our homeland?
“The name “Africa” is the Latinized form of the Arabic “Ifriqa” or “Ifriqiyah,” which means “Queen of Heaven.” This was the original name of Tunisia, the northernmost country on the African continent…”
malcolm said this on November 28th, 2009 at 2:17 pm
(by the way, some more reading seems to render my previous comment about the origin of the name “Africa”).
malcolm said this on November 28th, 2009 at 2:20 pm
Is it just me or has anyone else disliked Budo’s production minus Ricky Pharoe’s album “Civilized,” Grieves’ album “88 Keys & Counting,” and the “A.R.M.” joint…?
