The BeatWalkaz consist of three producers. Edobeci, Siyah-Scholar, and Majesty located in Newark, NJ. They came up when heads were adamant about moving a crowd, and if you came half steppin' with production or lyrics, the verbal beating would have been dumb stupid! "We make tracks not beats. There is a difference. Listen to the music, you'll understand what I'm talking about.
Band/artist history
We've been doing this since we were ten years old. We grew up in the heart of New Jersey's hip-hop scene. The Path Train rides to the city were in effect. A lot of us Jersey MC's and producers went to school together. Including multi-platinum selling artists. These are the people that we honed our craft with. We just moved in separate directions and understood nobody was going to put us on but us.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Yeah we play live. A moment was when our equipment failed at Club Millenium in Newark and Kool Bubba Ice kept the crowd cool, until he started cracking on a dude in the front row with no teeth, and a neck full of hip-hop jewelry.
Your musical influences
Minnie Ripperton, Dj Premier, Smokey Robinson, Parliament. A lot of heads from the 60'-70's. We were influenced by artists that kept just it FUNKY!
What equipment do you use?
Too much stuff to name but a choice weapon is the MPC 2000.
Anything else?
We have 15,000 blank cd's for the streets this summer, a following, and a passion to not get jerked. You go figure.
