The lead-single from Marco Polo's forthcoming LP, PA2: The Director's Cut, accomplishes what no one else has been able to pull off in over a decade--reunite Organized Konfusion. Since the duo disbanded in 1997, there has been no new OK material and every few years or so the usual "reunion rumors" emerge and then disappear.

Marco Polo's forthcoming LP, PA2: The Director's Cut will be released on 11-12-2013 via Soulspazm Records, with exclusive vinyl from Slice of Spice. The album features appearances from Talib Kweli, DJ Premier, Posdnuos, Masta Ace, Kardinal Offishall, Styles P, Lil Fame, Alchemist, Oh No, MC Eiht, King Tee, Michael Rapport, Large Professor, Inspectah Deck, Rah Digga, Slaine, Ill Bill, Organized Konfusion, Doppelgangaz & many more.

Marco Polo "3-O-Clock" f. Organized Konfusion (Pharoahe Monch & Prince Po)

Hip-Hop legend Edo.G teams up with his apprentices G. Dot & Born, Boston natives, to shine light on their story and style while also providing their own sound.  All production is handled by Confidence, who's claim to fame includes "Rashad and Confidence" and "Purpose and Confidence" on Ill Adrenaline Records and he produced seven tracks on Neek the Exotic’s “Hustle Don’t Stop” LP from 2012.  

The LP is fourteen tracks deep with Gdot & Born handling about half the duties on the mic, with the remaining tracks being handled by Edo.G, providing listeners with a nice diversity; while Confidence keeps a steady stream of that authentic Hip-Hop he is known for throughout.
     
Confidence, a student of the game dating back to the 90’s, first got a taste of music production in the mid 90′s while learning to DJ with his brother Technic.  His break didn't come until 2001 when he copped an MPC 2000xl which he still uses to this day to compose masterpieces.   

G. Dot & Born relay the struggle of survival in the streets with hard-hitting raw lyrics, traditional gritty street beats and a confident delivery that takes Hip-Hop back to its essence. G. Dot and Born stay true to the city of Boston that raised them and 90’s Hip Hop influences like J. Dilla, Sean P., Big Pun, Edo G., Kool G. Rap, AZ and Nas by embodying a humble braggadocio that only real life experiences teach you. 

Today, the group offers up a tribute song, “Living Legend,” dedicated to the one and only Pete Rock, featuring Pete’s former INI cohorts Grap Luva (Pete’s brother), Rob-O & EDO. G.

G dot & Born ft. Planet Asia - God Vibes (Produced by Ben Hedibi)

Lyrics:
I don’t wake up whole.
I assemble myself.

I breathe when the night gets loud,
Remind myself there’s still something now.
Fix what I can, keep people fed,
Patch the cracks they pretend aren’t there.

I water plants in broken streets,
Hold doors open, say “excuse me.”
I try real hard to stay the man
Who believes this world can still be held in hands.

But something in me listens
For the sound of boots.

I’m trying to keep life alive.

I’m built for when it dies.

I’m the fault line running through,
I don’t choose, I split in two.

When the system bares its teeth,
Something else wakes up in me.
Hands stop shaking, heart goes flat,
I don’t feel guilt, I calculate.

I know where to hit, how much it takes,
How fast a threat turns into space.
You call it loss of self-control,
I call it doing what keeps control.

He’s not gone.

He’s waiting.

I don’t want this.
I just want quiet.

Quiet doesn’t survive.

There has to be another way.

There was.
They killed it.

I try to keep life alive,
I swear I do, I try.
But when the system fights back hard,
Something else takes the wheel inside.

I’m the chaos you designed,
Every line you crossed is mine.
I don’t flip, I was the switch
You built for moments just like this.

If I sound empty
It’s because someone had to be.

When the Switch Flips

The levels are a bit all over the place on this mix, sorry...

 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. 

In 2012 Git would hit big when Jenny Craig weight loss used Git “If You Just Make Love To Me” SingleTV commercials. Git release Git Craft ft. Hubbs Video his new artists on his label.

In 2013 Git “Basement Ghost” album is released on New Years feat. Sean Price, AZ, Hubbs, B.White, Beedie, The 58's & more. Git would do 2 remixes on Yoruba Records Bah Samba Presents Shake The Dog - Corazon Roto and Osunlade Camera Shy. Osunlade remixes Git feat. Brooklyn Red “Higher” and puts it on 12” vinyl. Git remixes Mpire Feat. Prodigy of Mobb Deep. First single off piece of mind “Rap”.
In 2014 Git “Times Like This” Video drops on New Years. Git x Hubbs “Piece Of Mind” album due to drop Jan 21st.

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."
