K-Def is dropping a new EP (also entitled “The Meeting”) with this cut on it… and features from Insight, Has-Lo, and Kaimbr… due out on August 20, 2013.

Pac Div (brothers Like and Mibbs and brother-from-another BeYoung) puts out its latest track – “Cross Trainers” – a few weeks in advance of the album, “GMB” (due out November 27, 2012).

Blu – “Lemonade” (Prod. by Beat Make Jake) [Cuts by Exile]
September 14, 2012
Blu drops “Lemonade” online, announcing a limited 7″ vinyl release (with only 400 pieces to be made available October 9, 2012). Advice: If you want that vinyl, you may want to pre-order…like NOW (going fast)! The “Lemonade” joint itself is dope… a real in-the-booth sound to the vocals and mix to boot.

Blu x Exile – “A Man”
July 23, 2012
Maaaaannnn! This is DOPE! “A Man” is a cut off the “Maybe One Day” EP (out now); and it will be on the upcoming Blu and Exile album “Give Me My Flowers While I Can Still Smell Them” (due out September 4, 2012). You gotta listen to this. It’s not just lyrical, it’s spiritual…cerebral…all that…literally!

Blu – “Kiss The Sky” feat. Mela Machinko [Prod. By M-Phazes]
May 23, 2012
West Coast emcee Blu is rather erratic with how he releases projects it seems, but when he does it’s usually quality. This new joint called “Kiss The Sky” from the skilled emcee featuring the vocal strength of Mela Machinko & produced by M-Phazes is straight fiyah! The track almost has a Pete Rock feel from a production standpoint which begs the question as to when Blu is gonna do more work with more producers like Pete Rock & M-Phazes. I’m thinking people that want more from Blu after hearing this banger may have to pay close attention because Blu’s unpredictability in everything from videos, singles & album releases is just that. Wild unpredictable just as quickly as the weather can change on an otherwise clear day….
Dela featuring Blu – “WhatUWanna” (DJ Spinna Remix)
March 15, 2012
DJ Spinna puts his touch on French producer Dela & left coast emcee Blu’s collaboration called “WhatUWanna” that appeared on the “Translation Lost” project released last year. Nice remix right here but what’d you expect from a former “Jigmasta” who’s a “Polyrhythmaddict”…….

Exile – “Klepto” (Video)
February 13, 2012
I have never really been a fan of rapping producers, but the latest single by frequent Blu collaborator and West Coast beatsmith Exile can get some run. Don’t expect to be wowed by any crazy bars as Exile goes in on what he deems wack emcees and producers, but the beat is pretty ill and you can ride out to it. The video for “Klepto” is kinda wild but it seems like the angle he was going for anyway.The album 4TRK Mind is out now.

Blu- Jesus (Video)
February 4, 2012
West coast flame thrower Blu releases some visuals from his Madlib produced joint “Jesus”. The album/mixtape/ep/lp (who really knows) was also called Jesus which was the precursor to Blu’s other 2011 full length release No York. This seems to be a trend with Blu dissappearing for a while, showing back up and in the words of Cappadona “dropping stupid Lp’s all over the place”. I guess some things aren’t meant to be understood, but one thing we do understand about Blu is, when he does show up he drops nothing but hottness. Enjoy!
