The Evolution of IMAKEMADBEATS

It all started with Theo, who is now Marco Polo's manager. "Yo son, imma start callin you mad beats, cuz you got mad beats" . I would respond with " I make mad beats kid".

Years later.... I drew something...bored in a college class with a blind teacher.



I thought it was cool. I took a digital picture of it and thought nothing of it. Before I knew it I was obsessed with this picture....and found the ink in the page literally reaching out to me. It reminded me of Venom's alien symbiote on spiderman. I heard another producer's wack beat and the ink ran away.

Months later, i woke up to this picture in my email:


It was from my man Alucard of Creative Juices. The message said "yo NeeM heres the drawing you wanted me to do. This is just a test run to make sure i got the idea down. Yo son, you ok? when you called me to tell me about this sh*t you sounded mad crazy...kinda possessed or somethin man. Hit me up. Wu Mansion."

Til this day i have no idea of what phone conversation hes talking about. I printed the picture out, and the ink on the page squirmed and made sounds as if it was missing a limb..like someone had cut off its arm or something.

Weeks later, I get another email from Alucard. "yo NeeM..here you go, iight man!! damn fam...now you can leave me alone. You need to get some help fam. I knew somethin was wrong with you when u appeared at the crib at 4:30am and had somehow climbed to our balcony to ask me for this drawing!! you wild kid!! get help!" I had no idea again what he was talking about. I did notice however that my nights were longer than before.
This was the drawing he sent:


The dark image some how changed me. It was I and I was it. It said on its face the answer to every question someone ever asked me.
NeeM whats for breakfast
NeeM: IMAKEMADBEATS.

It became my existence.

It told me me that its cousin was Maximum Carnage. Shout out to him.

IDE: Psilasylum

IDE of Creative Juices rehearsing a verse for a show. One of my favorite emcees right now....got his own sound and his wordplay and structure is crazy.

Oh yeah, and hes on Pete Rock Vs MidaZ and IMAKEMADBEATS.

DJ SPS of OZZOOONNNEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Big shout out to the homie SPS and CONGRATULATIONS!!! now its time to take on the world! Good job fam.

I told yah the talent in Ozone is crazy.

Wednesday, July 16, 2008

Nevermind

MidaZ's month long trip just ended. He went back to Ozone Florida with a finished Pete Rock Vs MidaZ mixtape thats just crazy. Imma put the intro up on my music player pretty soon. I've completed 4 projects this year, and im tired...but who cares right? I dont. We just gettin started.

Ive have put up the intro to the Pete Rock VS MidaZ mixtape on the music player without anyone's consent. This means that MidaZ or Conshus may find out its up and ask me to take it down...who knows. So it may not be there for long.

Roc C and IMAKEMADBEATS




So i got up wit Roc thru Mic Geronimo. He was tellin' me stories about how this cat would record whole albums in 34 minutes. Im exaggerating, but damn the work ethic is not a game wit Roc. We started building on the song he did with me on IMAKEMADBEATS...and its a wrap after that. Songs jus started ending up done outta nowhere. If you dont know the homey...learn him.

Check his bio on STONES THROW's website:
http://www.stonesthrow.com/roc/

4th of July is known as Independence day to Americans. Its also known as Grandad's birthday to Tzar and I. This day is also they day that, in 2008, MidaZ and IMAKEMADBEATS finished recording the songs for NIGHTMUSIC....in an 13 hour session at Quad that ended at 10 am the morning of the 4th. I got home, and slept for just under 3 hours. I couldn't sleep anymore. I was too excited, and began the arrangements and premixing setups. Midaz was in the next room sleep, came in, and told me to go back to sleep, but it was too late.

Shout Out To Koch Canada!!!

But...for what exactly??

Hmmmm...who knows...

MidaZ and I have been in the streets or the lab daily. Its been nothing but networking, recordings, plotting and scheming. One of my cousins called the cops on me over some BS the other day. Im glad hes gone back to where the #()& he came from, and *(^# the POLICE...too. Its been a crazy ass last 7 days. Before that was all peaceful and easy working. Im not sure what happened, but everything is going sideways. Stress life.

CREATIVE JUICES COMES THRU AGAIN...

Shout out to Alucard from Creative Juices for what you see above.

Things finally seem to be moving again. I was in Tampa working with recording artist Manny D for almost 2 weeks, in the house of Lastings Milledge, a baseball player in Washington. Now I am back in Brooklyn and back on the streets trying to get this project where it needs to be.

Random News.
You might see a guy with an afro that looks pretty much exactly like me as an extra in the upcoming Notorious BIG movie coming out soon, featuring Angela Bassett and Derek Luke. I have no idea who this guy is, and also have no idea how i know this information ;)

TIME TIME TIME


As i comtemplate how this project will reach the people...the one thing thats a constant in this equation is money. Money. Money. I need money. I haven't updated this blog as much as i would have liked as of recent only because im busy either makin beats or trying to get money. Ive slept on a couch for a long time now, and its not bad. Its not about getting myself dough in that sense, its about being able to put this project out the way that feel it needs to be. We have alot lined up. Being a composer is fun, man but rallying a team of people to work for you aint at all...whether theres money involved or not. I have talked to several graphic designers, agreed on pricing and everything, only to be let down buy inconsistencies, flakiness, and straight up slacking. And this has happened in many other facets putting together this project man. Sometimes i wish it was JUST about the beats...but i can't wish that all the time...because im in love with the process of a beat becoming a song, and then an album, and then a product, and then a movement. I just need some help man. Waiting on people is kinda depressing. I guess thats the nature of this game though. I aint complaining. Just know that this sh*t is dropping, and you wont be disappointed. Shouts to all those who believed from Day One.

Wu-Tang Mansion Vol. 2

Im glad to get more soldiers behind this movement....cuz this is about to be a war...mainly a financial one. Shout to cats like Arsun Fist who just dropped a single for yall to listen to...check it out at
Shout out to Domination Recordings (dj!!). If you havent heard, we have a new radio show on wprk 91.5 fm in Orlando, FL. Check it out.

Officially doin' shows.

Just got back from Tallahassee at Club Down Below doin' a show. That was my first BlakOut show in years. The travel there wasnt far from Orlando. We got there, met up with my man Mardigan and jumped in with a couple drinks on the house. The venue was dope. Obviously beneath the surface, it had a nice bar, pool tables and all. A group named Cross Breed opened up and set off the night. Those are some good dudes, and they held down the stage correct. After that, my man Am I Am went on, and killed it. We did a song no one has ever heard before, that we prepared specifically for these shows. I think it worked. I hope so. And yeah...so i got a chance to hear some extended fam for the first time live, my man Arsun Fist, and all i gotta say is wow. I look forward to hearing a lot more from this guy. BlakOut then proceeded to the stage to do what we do. I wont speak on us, if a video surfaces, it should speak for itself. Big shout out to the whole crowd out there, all the people i met, Sin, O Plex, Mardigan, and everyone i met.
"ahahahahaha"

TIP OF THE DAY

Man. So....Im here at Quad, just got my Sesame Chicken from the chinese restaurant. These fools..lol...man.....ok...so the delivery guy comes up to studio c, where im chillin, gettin ready for Steele and Yuk to come thru. This man gives me my food...the total was 6.80. I gave him 8 dollars man. 8 dollars. This man has the nerve to tell me, "thats not a good tip." Thats atleast what he was trying to say in his broken english. "Not a good tip, only 1 dollar!" I told him "heres a good tip, get an education bruh. Or intern here at quad." This is some 45 year old man riding a bike around manhattan. Get outta here wit that son.
They start demanding more money now?? It aint like i didnt give him a tip at all, he wanted MORE money. My assistant for the night, Corey, was lost as well.

anyway.lol.
IMAKEMADBEATS.

Now...This is what a producer goes through.

I took out this cat's name cuz I ain't the one to put someone CrazY on blast, but i will put this on regular blast. Nothing personal to you bruh, really. I hope the same success that i mentioned in our AIM convo, but damnit, when will niggas stop f**kin playin themselves. Just peep. It starts off with me simply making a joke about entering a contest, only to end up congratulating this person who I have known for a some years, but has never been my homie, close friend, even affiliate. I don't call him to chill or hang out, or expect him at my bday party.Just a cat around the way doing his thing thats gets respect when Im out and about. Read.

1:11:42 PM NeMo Strange: let me jump in the street life battle son
1:11:46 PM NeMo Strange: i represent.
1:15:08 PM Rapper/BattleHost: lol
1:16:08 PM NeMo Strange: how much is it to enter son. i got it.
1:16:20 PM Rapper/BattleHost: $30
1:16:57 PM NeMo Strange: to enter the street life battle? it should be 2 dollars, same price as a subway ride, nah mean.
1:28:01 PM Rapper/BattleHost: lol
1:28:51 PM NeMo Strange: congrats on all, much money and sucess to ya.
1:32:07 PM Rapper/BattleHost: you should send me some beats sir
1:34:37 PM NeMo Strange: for ur showcase?
1:35:11 PM Rapper/BattleHost: for me to check out
1:37:57 PM NeMo Strange: no doubt. nothin personal brother, but i would have to charge you. I hope you don't take that the wrong way.
Rapper/BattleHost Changed status to Idle (1:52:12 PM)
and never returns.


notice there's no "thanks man" response to me congratuling him. Just goes straight for the jug my man. BEATS. Soon as i say bring up dough, nigz disappear. Atleast have the decency to say "no doubt, i aint got that" or "i wasn't looking to spend much dough" or something.

THIS IS WHAT I DO FOR A LIVING. THIS IS MY CRAFT! who goes to college to be an engineer, to work for free????
WHO?
man i gotta pay rent, phone bills, heat bills, electro bills, water n all that sh*t, and it aint cheap in BK, NY.

Imma start forwarding IM's to my manager and call it a night.

Steele of Smif n Wessun n Yuk

In the lab this friday. Should be great. I should have some kinda video of that up afterwards, but once again, like the previous video, it won't be for long.

I have been doing a lot of mixing lately, some for Butta Verses up n coming album to be released on Domination Recordings, and others ranging from Bollywood Movie scores to new artists on Pharrell's Star Trak label. Its been an interesting first month in my new home in Brooklyn. I see a lot outside of my window i've never seen outside of a window, cuz i've never lived on a main street in my life. Here, I've seen anything from random beatdowns, to not-so-sane people yelling "helicopter!" over and over again, to the same old lady asking me for change 1531413 times a day, and not reallizing im the same person. Some of these things we had in Memphis, but some of this stuff is just strange. The 4th day i was in this apt, i saw a man fall from like the 20th flight of some building in the distance, then another man fall right after him. The first man died (rip) and the second lived. I have also seen snow go 100% horizontal....and not FALL at all...just fly to the left...down the street. Butta V also saw something flying from the sky around midnight one night. The sincerity in his face and eyes led to me believe somethin was about to go down!....its all good though.

And now a message from one of our sponsors:

Quotables.

"NeMo i need some of that food brother. You got me on that? Get me some beats!" - Spliff Star @3:47am


Is it me or do cats take themselves wayyyy too seriously man. More and more i see it. I aint saying be the most modest "let a brother get the shirt off ya back" type of person, but damn, don't let YOU trip YOU up.
It aint that damn serious.

....At least dont do that where im from:)

Random thought: If it was up to me, I would never show my face in this rap sh*t. I'd just be a sillouhette (spelling?) of myself. Rap dudes is so caught up in themselves man. So caught up, when you reach out, they deny you, not knowing who you are and what you bring to the table. AND THESE DUDES IS NOBODY. Sillouhette huh? hmmmm... You know what, thats not a bad idea.

....
hmmm....**wheels are spinning**



AND ...
a pic for the road....TzaRizM, J-Zone, Critical, and ....IMAKEMADBEATS.

WHO? WHAT?

"NeMo I got some craazzyy ass shit for that crazzzzyy ass beat you sent me son!" - Busta Rhymes



this phone call made my year. If it wasn't for me being excited about the creation and distribution of IMAKEMADBEATS...i dont think there would be a reason to leave my home after that statement. Things like that still get me geeked. Music, I love it.

So yeah...what im about to put up here wont be up for long... real exclusive footage..catch it while you can. Now I'll see who is really sleeping.


Butta Verses has been up for a minute...and we been knockin out some craziness at Quad...hmmm...u know what...i dont wanna say much this time. I might spoil it, and i dont wanna do that.

In random Other News....last night i got a chance to work with the singer who sang "One More Time" for Daft Punk at Quad...and wow....what an experience that was man. Talk about your eccentric people....
Auto Tune at its greatest...and thats all i will say on that:)

This is the view from my living room on to Fulton St....it was snowing hardcore...i still went out to get the pina colada slushee. Real G's, fam.


Yeah its been a while since i've updated my blog, and there is a reason for that. I've been swamped with finishing a lot of things, one of the main things is IMAKEMADBEATS. Next tuesday, before Akrobatik's album release show in NYC, Black Milk and Butta Verses will be recording the lead single at Quad Studios. Looking forward to that:)

We have more official dates for the OSOTS tour....

I've been mixing an album for Shinobi Stalin and mixing for several other people. I'm finally comfortable the new crib in BK, gettin used to the neighbors, furniture, and all that.
My cousin Dominic is leaving back for England today. He was here for a week or so in Nov, and came back in Jan for a month. I guarantee you will here his name again.

Butta Verses is coming to NY today and will be here for a couple of weeks, who knows what will come outta that....stay on the lookout.

First Rza, Then Qtip...now NeeM


Its been longer than i'd like since my last blog post here, and i have reason for it. So, about 4 days ago, i woke up to find water coming through my light fixture in the bed room. The light its self was sparking. At first it thought it had rained outside, and something was just leaking. I wasnt fully awake yet, so things werent coming together. Then I reallized, it hadnt rained at all. The water started to get heavier and heavier, and at first i was trying to Catch it with a bucket, but then i thought that maybe this bucket wasn't enough. It was then that I began to move all of my most important equipment out of my room. My computer first, then production tools..... just as i was gettin most of my stuff out, the ceiling collapsed and water poured into my room like the day God told Noah about. The floor was soaked and floor, some of my records were damaged...then i reached to pick up a record and the water electrocuted me. I was suspended around 3 seconds and it burned my arm and hand. i was knocked back to the kitchen, where i put a dent into the stove with my head. That day wasnt a good day.

Ironically....all this happened on the day the lease was signed for my new apartment. Great. This couldn't have happened one week later?
its all good...long as im alive and my stuff is good. Im outtie 500.

DEDICATION TO DONUTS........


on the audio player to your right, a beat i made is playing. This beat is exactly as it is named, a Dedication to Donuts, the last project J Dilla released alive. He is easily my biggest influence, and on Donuts, he used a style/technique of chopping samples so precisely that I had never heard before. This in no way is my attempt at biting or calling the style my own, but only my take on what I consider the greatest producer ever, did on that project. From my perspective, there was a certain texture of sampling, a certain "not where u would normally chop" style of chops, and an ingenius subtle use of drums already in the sample chopped.
Forever a student, I am.

Turn it up, niggas!!
RIP JAY DEE.

I dont think ive explained this yet man. I DO LIVE OFF MUSIC. 100 percent. Im an Engineer at Quad Studios, NYC, but production is where the bulk is at. So don't ask me to do what i do to live, for FREE. THANKS:)

Back to the task at hand. New music from Butta Verses n NeeM comin soon. Shout out to DJ, thats right, DJ, Reams. Reams if u readin this, u will forever be DJ REAMS. He on the phones now, emailin, grindin, hustlin in the streets...i dont care man..u still DJ, son...lol. Several times in the last year Butta, Reams and I hit Quad up and recorded some craziness. One time AButta from Natural Elements came threw as well and we recorded a joint over a TzaR beat. Wheeew. Ok.

Shout out to Curt Mathematics aka Secret. Damnit hit me up...u know my number...lol.

END OF THE FIRST DAY OF THE YEAR

is spent making a beat. They dont call me "MadBeats" for nothing man. 

Just in case u all don't know...the channel all my youtube videos are under is called "Grime Life TV." This was an idea from TzaR to show the come up of UJE artists and their affiliates. Shout out to Relz for holdin us down with that. 
Beretta catchin a nap after writin. He look like hes gone fam!
So right now MidaZ, TzaR and homie Beretta 9 of Killarmy are preppin Beretta's album to released under RZA's label in the OZONE...aka Orlando. They are going thru beats and choosing album worthy cuts. One beat i did for him, i did on the spot on video chat. Technology is crazy fam, but it aint messin wit bein actually there. I had to stay in NY cuz of some other problems...but TZ, the other half of ST, is holdin me down.
