Spencer Bellamy is The East Flatbush Project. Originally
part of Howie Tee’s “Count Disco” crew, Bellamy started
out in the music biz by deejaying block parties in
Brooklyn, NY throughout the 80s, and by 1989 he was making
beats. Best known for the underground classic “Tried By
12″ from 1996 which featured the rapper Des, The East
Flatbush Project has only released top quality Hip Hop,
all of which only came out on 12″ vinyl and always
featured excellent unknown rappers. First Born (Overdue):
Deluxe Edition is a collection of the tracks that Bellemy
has released over the years, along with five additional
songs that never made it to wax, two remixes of “Tried by
12″ that were available on a UK-only single and as an
added, and very special bonus, the seldom-seen video for
“Tried by 12″. Along with being the founder and CEO of
10/30 Uproar Music (the label that put out all the EFBP
records) Bellemy has made beats for Jay-Z, Foxy Brown,
Styles P, Sauce Money, Memphis Bleek and more. There were
six official 10/30 Uproar Music singles in all, and every
main version from those records are featured on this
compilation, including the sought after instrumental for
“Tried By 12″. The first release was “A Madman’s Dream”
backed with “Can’t Hold Back” which came out in 1994, and
ever since The East Flatbush Project has been a symbol of
Hip Hop in its purest form: No gimmicks and no gadgets,
just straight beats, straight rhythms, and a whole lotta
head noddin’. That’s what it’s about… Enough said, other
than this: All tracks produced by the one and only Spencer
Bellamy.

"Inhale", "Everything We Spit Is So Hard" and the head-nodding Joe Buddha remix of "Tried By 12" are very dope joints. "A Madman's Dream" reminds me of '94, it has a good old vibe. The rest of the tracks are not that special.
