Blu has flooded the web over the last few years, and I for one am NOT complaining. Bouncing off collaboration projects with MED & Madlib and a EP with MC Anthm Blu takes us back to his 2012 project Give Me My Flowers While I Can Still Smell Them with the visuals for his Ease Your Mind joint.
Homeboy’s Chimera EP drops next month but enjoy this Exile produced track. Like what you hear? Check out the tracklisting down below.

Off his critically acclaimed debut mixtape “Trapper’s Alley: Pros and Cons“.
The video is directed by Myles Rowe (@RoweShotMe).
Had no idea this was coming, Blu & Exile gives us an album stream of their forthcoming “give me my flowers while i can smell them,” album. Circa and recorded back in 1999, but here’s the entire stream which can be ordered for $15. Support real hip hop.
“Face In Disguise” is Build Jewelz reconstituted by Has-Lo and Exile.
Exile lends this track an intense musical backdrop full strings and monastic chanting that brings out a religious tone that matches Has-Lo’s lyrical prose. So…basically…Hope and faith are pitted against an unyielding external reality that Has-Lo depicts with the wordplay of a virtuoso. Existential enough for you?
Exile recruits Blu for this track off his forthcoming album “4TrkMind.” The track samples Otis Redding’s “That’s How Strong My Love Is.” “4TrkMind,” in stores October 4th. Support.
