Blu Signs Major Label Deal!


This weekend it was announced that Blu has signed with Sire Records, a division of Warner Brothers.

In a blog piece featured in the Los Angeles Times online section, the local rapper said of his rise to national acclaim, "I’m not going to save Hip Hop. Hip Hop is safe. There’s a lot of [factors] trying to bring Hip Hop down. Hip Hop is a reflection of the world now. It’s not just Harlem. I’ll continue to live my life and make music and continue to be an inspiration."

Blu's manager and publicist, Jonathan Kim, added, "This is one step further to where we would like to see Blu’s career end up."

In 2007, Blu released Below The Heavens with producer Exile on Sound In Color Records. Last year, two joint efforts, The Piece Talks as C.R.A.C. with Ta'raach as well as the self-titled Mainframe collaboration as Johnson & Jonson were released on Tres.

Late last year, it was rumored that the 25 year-old emcee and producer, once approached by Suge Knight to sign with Death Row, was being courted by labels ranging from Warner to Duck Down.

Blu's major label debut is said to be arriving this fall.

Been pushing for this guy since day one...Illest new Mc in the game in my opinion with one classic album already under his belt which a lot of people have slept on I hope his major label release will live up to what I know hes capabile of doing.

With all this said heres a new track and a remix for it he did with Japan Producer Noah...

**Classic LP**Reks - Grey Hairs


Probably my favorite album of 08' some dope concepts & beats to match...
on "All in one 5 mics" Reks takes on the flow/voice of Pac, BIG, Big Pun, and Big L
and does a pretty damn good job on all of them, maybe just the biggie could of been slightly better...with a dope Primo joint "Say Goodnight" and mostly the rest of the production handled by Statik Selektah’s jazz-and-soul-inspired beats you can't really go wrong with this...this might be 08' "Blu/Exile - Below The Heavens...

Reks - Grey Hairs

**Classic Material**Brand Nubian - Slow Down



Classic Brand Nubian joint...Remember bumpin this joint heavy as a kid, to bad all 3 couldnt stay together longer in there prime.

Kanye West Says ‘Best Hip-Hop Beats Of All Time’ Will Be On Jay-Z’s The Blueprint 3


via MTV

Another Jay-Z song leaked online last month — that’s OK, just make some more. Kanye West says he’s just a handful of records away from finishing Jay’s The Blueprint 3, again.

“I finished his album and he released four songs that were potentially gonna be on the album,” West said last week on Sway and King Tech’s “Wake Up Show.” “So I gotta go back and do four. I just did one beat the other day in Hawaii — probably one of the best hip-hop beats of all time, if I do say so myself. I just gotta do three more beats and we’re done, ’cause he’s got classics. He’s got songs that are better than any of the things you’ve heard leaked.”

Two records that Kanye says should make B3’s final cut are “Everyday a Star is Born” and “Forever Young.”

“You know what it was — every year I do two albums’ worth of really dope beats,” he explained. “This year, Common did his album with Pharrell, and I did 808s & Heartbreak and Blueprint 3. So just imagine the caliber of beats on the last two Common albums I did — Jay-Z has those types of beats. Those caliber of beats. A beat like ‘The People,’ that’s the highest caliber of beat.”

In 2009, at least one album’s worth of beats looks like it will be set aside for a Kanye LP.

“I’m just gonna do what I’m gonna do and people are gonna love it because I do really fresh sh–,” he laughed. “When I do it, I feel like I’m gonna rap, I’m gonna go back-and-forth on it. I feel like I’m gonna sing here and there. Because I used Auto-Tune so much, it put me in the mode of doing melodies. I got a new song coming out with Beyoncé called ‘Ego.’ I don’t know why she wanted me on it. I didn’t use Auto-Tune, but I hit certain lines because I used it so much it’s like almost having training wheels. So it’s incorporating new styles.”

Kanye doesn’t have a release date for his LP, and there’s no firm date for The Blueprint 3, either.

Jay-Z Says, ‘We All Should Support Rihanna’


Via MTV

Jay-Z spoke out this weekend about the alleged altercation between Chris Brown and Rihanna.

“It’s not a sound bite, this is a real situation,” Jay told reporters in Arizona. “If you can’t have compassion for others … just imagine it being your sister or your mom or someone like that, then think about how you should talk about that.

“I just think we all should just support her,” he continued. “She’s going through a tough time. You gotta realize she’s a young girl, as well. She’s very young.”

The rapper was formerly president and CEO of Island Def Jam Records, Rihanna’s label, and presided over her signing and early career. Rihanna, Young Jeezy, Ne-Yo and Rick Ross were among the artists who thrived during Jay’s stint as an executive at the label, which ended late in 2007.

Jay was in Arizona for his third annual “Two Kings” dinner, which he co-hosts with LeBron James, as part of the NBA All-Star Weekend. The event was attended by Kobe Bryant, Young Jeezy, Chris Tucker, Spike Lee, Michael Strahan, Grant Hill, Tamia and others.

MTV will air “Chris Brown & Rihanna: Love in Trouble” on Monday, February 16, at 6 p.m. ET/ PT.

ERYKAH BADU Has a New Baby Daughter by rapper JAY ELECTRONICA


“Erykah gave birth to a baby girl at her home on February 1, 2009 at 1:30 p.m.,” the rep tells Us [Weekly]. “The baby’s father, [rapper] Jay Electronica, and her two children were in attendance.”

The couple chose to deliver at her Brooklyn, New York home with the help of a midwife — who was apparently running late.

“Labor has begun,” Electronica wrote. “Everybody stand back. No hospitals. No doctors. No medicine. We’re waiting for the midwife to show.”

Badu’s has a daughter Puma, 7, with rapper D.O.C., and a son named Seven, 10, with Andre 3000, I love me some Badu but damnnnn! 3 kids 3 rappers?! lol have to laugh just a little bit....but congrats same way.
