Blu & Exile Celebrate 10 Years of 'Below The Heavens' with Rare Track and US Tour
The Below The Heavens drop one of the realest Christmas songs of all-time
Hip-hop may have its fair share of seasonal suites -- from Run DMC's "Christmas in Hollis" to OutKast's "Player's Ball" all the way up to Run The Jewels' "A Christmas Fucking Miracle" -- but it just gained another with Blu & Exile's latest transmission.
HEAR: Blu & Exile Celebrate 10 Years of Below The Heavens with Rare Track and US Tour
Fresh off the release of their latest project, In The Beginning: Before The Heavens, the duo returns with their contribution to Amazon's upcoming Christmas Soul compilation, premiering the sobering, sweet and sharp "Christmas Missed Us" via XXL. Shirking sleighbells for slow-burning and slightly-swung heat, Blu recounts the copious disappointments the holiday season tends to bring and how no one should be holding out for the generosity of mythical flying fat man. Too real.
