Coming out of Exile

Aight this post is about a producer I been jammin lately by the name of EXILE. Guys got great beats,arguably a classic album in Below the Heavens with BLU,
but is still about live performance.
Dude is nice on the MPC, check out this live version of Lil Wayne's A Mili...

Exile "Milli" Video from Jonathan Kim on Vimeo.

Here's a beat he did for Akon and my guilty pleasure artist of late, Kardinal Offical, This video is ill I must say. (Damn I love the Wire!)


He's also got an instrumental concept album coming out named "Radio" droping 1/20.
Dude took all sounds from the most hated medium right now....the radio, and made an entire album. Hard to explain, but go check em out

Jammin that Johnson & Johnson

Yo,

So its Monday, and I realized one Cd purty much dominated my deck all weekend, the new Johnson & Johnson:







This duo is Mainframe and one of the hottest up-and-coming MCs: BLU
Check out some of Blu's best work here:

This is BLU's third collabrative album in the last 6 or 7 months, and this one takes a more raw approach than his conceptual classic Below the Heavens. The album consists of mostly battleraps and breakbeats. It was acctually gonna b a mixtape before the Blu & Exile project, but ended up getting distribution after it's release. The raw, carefree feel of the tracks is prolly what had me jamming this all weekend. But the hiddem Gem is the melancholy Bounus track "Hold On".
N E Wayz my homeboy Xrae did a great review on the cd, as well as a full download link
enjoy!
