Gary Clark Jr - 'Blak And Blu Mixtape' [Stream] + Summer Tour Dates

Gary Clark Jr gifted us a peak at some extra cuts from his twice Grammy nominated Blak And Blu LP a few months ago, but today we're getting a whole helping of remixes, live takes and bonus material to keep the jones in your bones. The nine track tape features a star-studded roster of guest spots from Bilal, Talib Kweli, Robert Glasper, Alice Smith and champion of the southern draw Big K.R.I.T, giving us ample proof of his versatility as both a musician and studio head. Along with the tape, the master axeman has announced that he'll be taking his show on the road to bring that royal blue funk to a stage near you this summer. You can stream GCJ's latest below, but be sure to peep those dates after the jump.
