BABY J presents BIRTH

"Nature has taught us that as any species or form evolves it eventually
controls its' own growth and if it becomes harmful to the environment around
it, it will destroy itself and a new species will be born"



Producer Baby J has built a liaison with some of the creme of the New York
hip-hop world who have been brought together by the love of the culture
rather than politics and record labels. In these turbulent times when the
music of the people has become stifled & muted the Birth album brings a
voice back to the community. "Recording Birth was like a family get
together, and family is some shit that be gettin' fucked up in the 90's. All
the MC's came through spittin' mad wisdom and love, and these are some of
the strongest weapons in this war" stated Baby J. When asked about the Birth
LP and his envolvement in music he responded "This is what we here to do. We
only got two ways of being heard, through our music, or by being on that
foul savage shit. When you understand that this music is ours, that we
control this voice, it becomes clear, that the rules and boundaries set up
by outsiders don't apply to us." This attitude is demonstrated in Baby J's
music and production techniques, where, rather than just taking an old break
and looping it he often works entirely from sounds and playing & building
melodies and beats from scratch. Another example of him having no regard for
the "rules" is on the tracks "War Trilogy" and "Angels of Death" where the
songs have been deliberately distorted and muffled to present a raw, dirty
feel.
