East Flatbush, Whaddup?

East Flatbush Project - Tried By 12 (Instrumental)-(Produced By Spencer Belamy) - D/L
East Flatbush Project - Everything We Spit is Hard (Instrumental)-(Produced By Spencer Belamy) - D/L
Me, I’m a quality over quantity cat any day. I see endless run-off from producers and emcee’s alike: Old-ass demo’s, endless mixtapes and unreleased instrumentals that should’ve stayed that way. I like the DJ Shadow approach: One album every five years that changes the whole hip-hop landscape like a bomb went off. Not so big a fan of the Necro/DOOM/Madlib/9Th Wonder style never-ending cashgrab….
So producers like Spencer Bellamy, best known for the infamous “Tried by 12″ beat for his own East Flatbush Project (never the same rappers twice but always on his beats), stay in my mind much longer, as I fiend for new material…I read over at Can I bring My Gat? that East Flatbush Project had an album coming out in 2006/06 and then at the poorly named manhunt.com (no brokeback) the man himself said:
We don’t have any dates yet but just look out for the album called First Born and it’ll be out sometime next year, like Spring 2006.
So I post these joints for the heads to have while the album materializes….look for it on Bellamy’s label 10/30 Uproar….whenever it drops. Spencer?

Tried by 12 is an absolutely undeniable east NY classic!
All you young pseudo-backpacker fags who think you know the deal need to do your homework. Or let Biz do it for you!

Remember that god-awful double album of remixes for that track?
Some songs don’t need to be remixed - “Tried By 12″ is one of them.
