The Beatdrunx are back…
The Belgian hip hop crew Beat Drunx stems from the work of One Cell, whose musical touches are influenced by a wide range of music styles since he previously worked with rock, jazz and deep funk bands.
MC’s Rubski, Acrid Cast(former member of Outspoken Members) and DJ Court-A-Sock (Grazzhoppa’s DJ Bigband ) joined One Cell in the formation of the Beat Drunx.
They have previously been asked as support act for GZA(Wu Tang Clan) Roots Manuva, IAM, Kerry James, The Opposites and Zwart Licht. They are regular guests at Belgium’s most renowned hip hop shows such as The Hop (Studio Brussels) and LDBK (Laid-Back/FM Brussels).
After their debut album Brewed and Bottled they kick ass with their high underground standard.
The Beatdrunx’ live reputation in addition to Acrid Cast’s and Rubski’s wordplay and lyrics tear the roof off. They bring about many spontaneous bar brawls, making it nearly impossible to get a pint for the first row listeners amongst the excited crowd.
Moment of Clarity is a dark and sinister album as for the beats composed by One Cell who produced it with a stirring up kick and snare. DJ Court-a-sock’s scratching skills lighten up the record. The experienced crew delivered nice work but I am sure they are able to make even better albums in the future.
