Audio: The Bullitts, "Raining", "Catch A Thief" + "Live + Learn"

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.Jeymes Samuel AKA The Bullitts

3 new songs from our guy Jeymes Samuel AKA The Bullitts leaked via his soundcloud over the last few days--just in time to enlighten that half of the music-head world who eagerly looked over the tracklist of Jay Electronica's new LP and said "who the hell is The Bullitts?" (let's just acknowledge here that every other post today is going to be anchored one way or the other to the big news of the weekend--it's 6 degrees of Jay Elec, from NaS to Cap'n Murphy). A: The Bullitts is your new sh*t.

These particular joints--unfinished demos or 'phone memos' as they appear to be--will illuminate as well as enlighten, suggesting Samuels' galactic range from the dark & tender acoustic ballads "Raining" and "Live + Learn" (below) to the huge cinematic beat of "Catch A Thief" (after jump).
