Can someone find me one wack song from Blu? Because I'm honestly yet to hear one. Here is the latest song from Blu's Myspace "Vanity(DeathOfAStar)PtOne" with more of that dope introspective music (don't sleep on dude's production game either). Shout out to h.e.r. for this one.

Imeem's Keys 2 The City rolls on with Part 2 of their segment on Blu. In this video Blu talks about the feeling his songs impart upon listeners, mostly referring to his more well-known songs like "Up All Night" and "Hold on John."  He also talks about what mind frame he was in when making those songs, and how he is able to relate to the people with music that's easily digested. For more Keys 2 The City content we have the official "Keys 2 The City" Anthem featuring Fashawn, U-N-I (who rocked Santos Party House in NYC last night) and Richie Cunning down below. Check the flyer for details on the Keys 2 The City show tonight in San Francisco where you can see all these artists, after the jump.

Here's a new joint from Co$$ featuring Blu that the homie Sweeney shot over yesterday. The song is called "Angelic" and was produced by Exile affiliate Alphabet . Apparently this song isn't off any specific project, but the two have been talking about putting an EP together in the future. Here's another banger from the two from earlier this year called "CityofLos(t)Angel(e)s" in case you hadn't heard it.

Posted by Shamz on



As one would expect, the Keys 2 The City The LA Edition is stacked with talent. Yesterday you got part 1 with U-N-I. Today is part 1 featuring Blu where he speaks about the "West Coast bubble" that makes up LA's inclusive hip-hop/jazz/rock/soul scene. He then goes on to highlight the musical fusion Cali's next movement of artists bring to the game.



Today was the MTVU premiere of Bay area producers Keelay & Zaire's new video for "The Times." The song features Blu, Fortlive and Nino Moschella. Keelay & Zaire's album, Ridin' High, is due out February 21st and features appearances from Phonte, Blu, Torae, Tunji, Supastition, Cali Agents, and more.
