Against the Clock is a series where we give an artist 10 minutes in the studio and see what they come up with. You can watch all the past episodes here.

In this episode – first in a series of videos we have coming up from Detroit – we put Nick Speed to the test, and boy does he pass. Speed has released on Mahogani Music and Underground Resistance, while producing beats for everyone from Lloyd Banks to Danny Brown, and as he demonstrates here, he makes tracks fast.

So fast, in fact, that he actually makes three beats in the timeframe, and raps over them. It’s pretty incredible – check it out above if you don’t believe us.
