Straight outa Belcourt, with DJ J-U-Ice and the Ice Cold Family comes the NEW bangin' duo....701! That's right Dre and Spektak. They bringin' that new flavor of hip hop with the illest rhymes y'all ever heard!
Why this name?
We figured we would represent for the Nasty North along with Thunder Savage. So we were thinkin' of the possible names of the band, then it just hit us.....we could use 701, like the area code.
Do you play live?
Yeah! Out at the Turtle Mountain Community College. Yeah, we like rhymin' and performin'. Yes, when we were doin' a number at a local talent show, we started out with only 40 to 50 people, and when we started rockin' the crowd we ended up with like 200. And it was a shock to us to see that so many people loved our music.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It makes more exsessible to everybody. But it's also a downfall for mcs and singers. I mean think about it they are getting jipped outa money. People/Biters don't have to pay for the mc's/singer's song or album if they really wanted it. They could use kazaa, limewire, or napster to download the song fo...FREE!!
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Hell Yeah...no doubt! That's what we're in the game for. We already have record labels that are intrested in us. They just need a demo and we could be on our way to the top! But...they would have to let us be creative. But if we do run across a major label we will be sure to sign on the dotted line!
Band History:
Well we've been together about a year. We recorded our first single about a year ago. We've been rhymin' a couple years.

So be sure to look out for 701...Comin' to a sound system near you! pCe!
Your influences?
Well...2pac, Eminem, Dre, Rakim and Eric B., LL Cool J, P. Diddy and Biggie, Rob Base, Run DMC, Kurtus Blow, Our fathers and all of the old schoolers that paved the way for rappers like us.
Favorite spot?
My city....We have to represent for the Nasty North, so our favorite spot would be Belcourt, aka 58316. We mostly chill at the crib! and we do pop up in the booth!
Equipment used:
We stick with our Dj, DJ J-u-ice! So, we usally use the turntables. When it comes to the computer we use a software called Sony Acid. We also use Tha' Bassment!
Anything else...?
Make sure to look for Thunder Savage's CD as well as ours. Titled "Wateva it Takes". It will be hittin' the stores in the near future, So if any exects. or record labels see this, we guarantee we'll make you crazy benjamins! Also be on the look out for some other of the Ice Cold Family members like Nae, and KJ. Be on the lookout for their upcoming cd's.
