Battle of the Beats 2 Update
Battle of the Beats 2 will be landing at Project Blowed on April 20th, 2006 and will be one not to miss. The event will begin at 9:00 pm and will feature up and coming producers presenting their best tracks. Again my compadre, Detrimental Storm will be in attendance and giving people the chance to hear the beats that he has in his arsenal. It should be a great show and for more information check my previous Battle of the Beats 2 post or the official sight. If your lucky there may be an appearance by the Ecliptic one himself.

Binary Star – Masters of the Universe (MOTU)
Binary Star – Waterworld
Two free full length albums for download from Subterraneous Records. It seems that Binary Star really got screwed over on these two albums. If you read the interesting facts you learn that they were no longer a group when the album MOTU was released. There is alot more and you can also hear samples from One Be Lo (OneManArmy) new material.

Proof Of D12: Rest In Peace
Proof from the group D12 was murdered outside of a Detroit night club. Proof was only 32 years old and was a gifted artist. I remember hearing him do a freestyle that was so flawless it sounded like it could be a song already. This is just a senseless act of violence and I am sad to have to see another person die in their prime. Rest in peace Proof and J-Dilla.
