Embracing the role of music as a catalyst for healing and change, J.PERIOD joins forces with artist/activists including Jesse Williams, Rhymefest, Aloe Blacc, Joss Stone, Black Thought (The Roots), DJ Jazzy Jeff, Pharoahe Monch, Posdnous (De La Soul) and more for “RISE UP! Music Inspired by America Divided.” The first single “Miranda” features an introduction from actor/activist Jesse Williams, with rappers Rhymefest & Xzibit posing provocative questions about the state of our nation over a J.PERIOD-produced beat. “We’re pointing fingers at each other and we’re missing the point…” Rhymefest begins. Unity, not division, is the solution for what ails our country—a fitting message in honor of what would have been Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s 88th birthday earlier this week.

How about some unreleased Lord Finesse/DJ Premier from the "Funky Technician" sessions recorded in 1989? Lord Finesse and Underboss Ent. have teamed up with Slice Of Spice to release this demo session as a crazy 5" record. Hip Hop Archaeology 101.

"What you have right here is the start of a song created during the making of the Funky Technician LP, that was never finished. Lyrically, it was actually parts of a live routine that I was trying to convert into a song for the album. DJ Premier found the loop and started putting the track together, but once Stu Fine (Wild Pitch Records owner) heard the track he immediately made me stop recording due to the extremely raw content. So this unfinished track remained stashed for over 20 years until recently. It's funny 'cos listening to it now makes me wonder what the hell I was thinking [Laughing]. I'm personally glad Stu & DJ Premier made me change my mind, but the track is now being released as an extremely rare limited edition promo. You can thank Rich (Slice Of Spice) for the constant persuasion 'cos if it was left to me I'd have left it buried in the stash!" LORD FINESSE

 In 1992, the year the Wu-Tang Clan shocked the world with Enter The 36 Chambers, Git Beats was huddled in a corner of the Staten Island Ferry with his boombox, bumping his beat creations for the RZA & The Wutang Clan. His encounters as a Staten Island youngster with the figures that put the "forgotten borough" on the rap map comprise just one more not in an accomplished career that has taken him from the birthplace of hip-hop in its heyday through park jams, battles, block parties, record deals, mixtapes, and more vinyl then you ever thought existed. This path has led him all the way to where you're most likely to find him today: behind the mixing board at his studio, with some of the genre's most respected emecees behind the mic. Remember the tale of the tortoise and the hare? Think of that story when you think of Git Beats.

As a kid working summers in his uncle's store in the South Bronx, Git (pronounced "jit", after the original name for "b-boy") knew early on that hip-hop was going to transform his life. But he didn't know it was going to take the globe over until 1983, when the movie Flashdance cracked the breakdancing craze wide open. That was the year Git bought his first record, Afrika Bambaataa's "Renegades of Funk", scrounged the cash to buy a friend's turntable setup, and began his DJ career, a logical transition for a kid who was drumming at age nine. "I spend hours on my drums." says Git. "Drums are everything to me." His love of drums set the foundation for his sound: driving, percussion heavy productions anchored in traditional hip-hip, with an experimental streak. Indeed, after several years of working with his Staten Island click The Street Preachers and trying his luck with different labels - including a stint on Payday Records, the imprint behind classic releases from Jay Z , J Dilla, Mos Def, Jeru, Showbiz & AG and O.C., before it was forced to cease operations - Git finally struck a chord in 2000 with the "Saxxy" 12-inch, a self released white-label that some maintain is the first example of was has come to be known as the "broken-beat" genre.

"Saxxy" proved to be a turning point in Git's career, in 2002 Git and renowned producer Alchemist collaborated on the "Just Be Good To Me" b..w "Raised In The Slums" 12-ince for NYC underground crew Tomorrowz Weaponz, a group Git would go on to score big with the "Dem Boyz" single, which hit number 6 on the Billboard charts in 2006, staying in the top 15 for over three months. Things started snowballing in 2005 when he performed in Central Park alongside DJ Z-Trip at the request of Nike, who featured the performance in the "Keep On Pushin" commercial. Beat duties on "Step Up Wise", a song on Digable Planets femcee Ladybug Mecca's comeback solo album "Trip The Light Fantastic", as well as 2006's Problem Solving Mixtape Vol. 1, Gedit “Rare Groove” EP set the stage for the 2007's "Just One Of Those Days" 12-inch with Ice Water and Raekwon of Wu-Tang Clan. Git turned heads in 2005.

In 2007 Git ventured into movie scoring, providing music for 2008's Sundance Grand Jury prize winner Sangre De Mi Sangre & Staten Island The Moive.




In 2009 Git Beats released his solo album 'Say Cheeze" Feat. Raekwon, Ladybug Mecca, Prince Po, Rockness Monster, Goretex & More. The Source Magazine stated, "This promising NY producer is clearly on the come-up. as evidenced by the work put in on his impressive Say Cheeze! album. ‘Pure sonic bliss.'" Soren Baker 2/09.

In 2010, MURAL, a Graffiti Documentary, Art or Vandalism. Giant Step features Git's 2010 Remix for Wayward Saints "Dream Merchant" Future Vintage LP. The legendary   Osunlade asked Git to remix his hit song, "Butterfly" it was later released in 2011 on Yoruba Records, on 7" Vinyl.

In 2011, The 58's new group starts opening shows for Mac Miller "The Realness" Produced by Git Beats inspired the group to release the 1st single off their album and has received over 67,000 views on youtube. Git also produced "Daydreamin'" from that same album. Yoruba/BBE Records release Git “Imagination” Album witch the first single “If You Just Make Love To Me” hits #1 in UK underground.

One of the world's foremost vinyl collectors, he can also be seen sharing his knowledge in the 2004 documentary Deep Crates. As his number continues to rise, Git remains true to the ethics the South Bronx taught him, always putting quality and substance first, no matter who's on the track and what may be up for grabs. "I try to make concepts with any artist I work with." he says. "If the person I'm working with has a name, that's all good, and I'm feel blessed to be able to work with them But at the end of the day, I have to be proud of the music I make."
