…No really. GO NOW b4 it’s TOO LATE!
Okay guys, I know we we’re expecting to drop Bang yesterday and there was a lot of uproar via phone and email. Not to worry the tape is still on the way. However due to better reception by blog sites we have decided to push it back to Monday, July 5th. This gives the blogosphere and local media a bit more time to extend us some coverage and gives you a chance to come down to see NiQ and Dj Fie @ Red, White, and Boom on Friday to hear some of the Bang tracks early.
DONT kill the messenger!
As a bonus, I’m going to give you guys the album cover…oh, and there’s a new song HERE if you hadn’t noticed..that’s a NiQ Music.com exclusive for you. Look for another tommorrow, and come back Monday to download the full tape.
BANG!

Wanted to do a drop for the 1 yr anniversary of ‘SEC:The Mixtape’
In the midst of the housing meltdown and beginning of a recession we decided it was time to give the world a free taste of NiQ. We did this tape with DJ Giovanny of Team Midwest Invasion at the beginning of last year, worked through the holidays on it. Fun project to make, and the first mixtape we did. Got tons of good feedback, and even some press on it, basically errbody showed love. Also, shouts to Dame Shepp, Digg, and Irv White for dropping bars for The Kid.
Check it out, download here and over here for torrent fans. Crowd favorites are Okaaay, Stage of Fire, Baby Talk ft Andre3000, Go Hard, City Behind Me, and Nasty Boy
Oh, and webleedhiphop.com just did a post on it, check it out…Shout out to Bucktown and BSeen
over there
Keep an eye out for the new tape, ‘Bang My Sh*t’ Coming soon..
Rocker Album Cover
“My engineer J (VJ OZ), had came back from on tour with MSTRKRFT and was very inspired by his recent trip to L.A. as well as the tour. He wanted to make something for their scene but with a different feel so he asked me to jump over a very basic version of what’s now Rocker.
So I spit a hook I had in my head for a single I wanted to make. I had a good idea the type of beat I wanted it over and Rocker wasn’t it. But J convinced me to spit also spit a verse for it, and next time I came in the studio..about 2 days later, OZ had produced the track up and also auto tuned my hook with some other plug ins as well so it sounded different then the norm. I spit my new verse I’d brought with me and he thought it was stronger than the other verse I had spit the first night, so I listen to the beat for 30 mins and then made what’s now the 1st verse – and the rest was history.
All in all I never envisioned making a track like that and 2nd, never envisioned EVER doing auto tune or any plug ins on my voice. But as you can hear, I think it sounds pretty good.”
