Marq Spekt and Open Mike Eagle join Billy Woods on a non-album cut
To produce the track, woods called on frequent collaborator Willie Green, who also provides the lion’s share of the beats on History Will Absolve Me, and Green answers that call with a truly raucous effort – horns blaring; cymbals ringing; bass rumbling; drums pounding. “We didn’t over-think this one,” explains woods, when asked about the song’s concept, “Our foremost intention was to make a banger. Hopefully we succeeded.”
Second leak off MarQ Spekt (grab that MacheteVision with Kno if you haven’t already) and Mobonix’s upcoming Bionic Jazz project.
Bionic Jazz is a freeform hip hop album with a concentration on unorthodox somewhat experimental but wholly organic feel. It’s reminiscent of when jazz musicians would just pick up their instruments and play freely without worrying about the confines of what was the expected norm. This project features various musicians and producers coming together to break down the barriers of today’s current musical atmosphere.
With his Machete Vision album with Kno still getting play, MarQ Spekt keeps things moving by joining forces with J-$crilla for Persona Not Grata. Here goes the second leak..
Imagine if Malcolm wanted peace and Martin held up the glock?
So Marq just goes right ahead and hi-jacks Deacon and Sheisty for their Niggaz Wit Latitude original, gets Deacon to revamp the beat, Sheisty to add a few bars and shows Pack the door? Alright then! Haha.. it’s a QN5 thaang beeyotch.
