About Me

i'm blockhead. i was born and raised in downtown manhattan. i make beats. i've worked with a bunch of mc's (lots with aesop rock, murs, cage, mike ladd, and a bunch of others). i also do solo instrumental hip hop type shit on ninja tune records. my first album "music by cavelight" is now approaching triple platinuim and i'm thinking of buying a jet . both of those statements are incredebly false. but what is true is that i'm also one half of the critically acclaimed (if acclaimed means dispised) Party fun action committee (www.myspace.com/partyfunactioncommittee) along with my homeslice jer. it was a comedy album put out by def jux. it is also , possibly, the best worst selling album ever made. my second album instrumental album "downtown science" is out right now...it's good. you'll like it. my third album is a rare gem known as "uncle tony's coloring book". it's a little something different for your mind. umm...i also enjoy long walks on the beach and short walks to the bodega.i'm a libra. oh and if you're trying to promote your shit on my page by leaving comments and messages , you're corny and annoying. unless i know you, in which case, go for yours...ALSO, if you ask me questions via messages, i most likely won't answer them BUT if you ask me in my "questions" blog, i will pretty much answer anything you ask me...for real...OK AND NOW IN CAPS CAUSE NO ONE IS READING THE LOWER CASE: STOP PROMOTING YOUR OWN SHIT IN MY COMMENTS. I'LL TAKE'EM DOWN AS QUICK AS YOU PUT THEM UP. YOU HAVE YOUR OWN MYSPACE PAGES.
