The Bassheadz - Attack Of Da Bassheadz From Da Bottom

The return of Captain Bass...
























 

Yet another bass cd with great cover artwork! And not only do you get great cover artwork, but inside you also find a 26 page comic book. The Bassheadz have escaped from prison and are unleashing their destructive bass on the city... who will be able to stop them? All artwork is done by Robert Reed. The story concept by David E. Williams & Robert Reed. Find out what happened yourself while listening to the intro and the title track "attack of da bass headz":




I personally like this cd more than the Captain Bass cd. While that one was kinda boring this one has a few more uptempo tracks like this one that I really love (probably partly due to that great "bass" sample which reminds me of DJ Fury's "Let the quad loose"):


























 


Some more good ones... track 6, "69 Degrees"




7. "Drop that quad"





























Somewhere halfway they must have realised that Heatwave Records is a West Coast label so they switched up styles a little...




 
Still a good album. I'll leave you with this to prove it: SPEED DROP!

Captain Bass Vs The Bass Headz

With $5,000 rap contest!

























Real nice cover art from Robert Reed on this one, but I keep wondering if they are talking about $5 or $5000? If so they should have spent the $5000 on their own cd. OK, it's not THAT bad, but the whole cd is rather boring imo. Problem is there's not 1 song that really stands out; the whole thing sounds like its a breakbeats album, but then Miami bass style...  

Wait! Ofcourse! That's the idea anyhow, no?? You can enter the Captain Bass rap contest by making your own rap to one of the tracks (given, it says inside you can also make your own beat, but you're supposed to use one of his I guess). Haha, that explains everything...

Take a listen:






Now don't start going crazy thinking about the 5 G's! The entry deadline was March 1, 1994! 
What you COULD do is play all them beats by clicking HERE and bust some freestyle raps over them! Come on man, act like Nike and just DO IT!
