New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Wu International Wesbite) - Today we hit you again with some more "Hood Scripturez" . As the project was evenly divided between Shabazz and Dj Extremediz, it wouldn't be fair to direct all our attention to just Shabazz . Hence why we come with Chapter 2 of our Hood Scripturez interview. While the focus on Monday was more on the themes of the album and all things Shabazz, today we dive into the world of beatmaking alongside DJ Extremediz. The man behind the boards seems to have come out of nowhere, if people knew his name at all, it was because they had seen the announcement of the (back then still) collaborative EP with Shabazz. DJ Extremidiz is an underground DJ / producer from Canada. Vernon, B.C is where he got his roots in the hip hop world. Started djing in high school and got some tech1200s and a mixer and began his journey through dusty crates and moldy pawn shops digging for old vinyl and collecting samples for his beats. Spending most his time scratching and beat juggling with fellow DJ's he developed his own style and approach to turntablism and production. While in his earlier years he mostly made mixtapes, played clubs and parties and occasional battles, now in recent years he has spent most his time in the lab working on albums, collaborations with other artists and building up his record label, Metal Barz. An initial collaboration on the song "Hood Sellasie" with Sunz of Man/Gravediggaz member Shabazz the Disciple some years ago sparked a mutual respect and admiration between both artists that eventually resulted to them working on more songs. More songs led to a planned EP which inevitably lead to the full album "Hood Scripturez" which dropped in November 4th of this year. The album is basically Shabazz at his best with his versatile rhyme styles, deep concepts and metaphorical parables laced with DJ Extremidiz grimey beats and cuts to fit the package to a great result as this album is already nominated to be one of Wu-Internationals "Best albums of the year". Ex has also worked with numerous MC's and producers worldwide such as: Hell Razah, Freestyle " Dstroy, Gage and Click Animosity, Tame One, Krohme, The Seekz Monster, LCOB artists, Beretta 9, Celph Titled and many more. Currently working on his debut album "Weapon Ex Project", numerous side projects for Metal Barz as well as the second instalment of "Hood Scripturez" with Shabazz, you can expect to hear a lot from The Exorcist in the next coming years!! Find out how this DJ from Canada connected with Shabazz from Red Hooks, New York, to create a master piece and much more about the DJ, producer and visionary...
