Yep… Blu GODleeBarnes is back with another instrumental project. Get mad or get glad… I advise the latter as he has a full length in the works (where he’s rapping) and things will be popping up in the near future.

*The link contains a single .mp3. Blame Blu, not Shake.
Hip Hop

fuck. As long as he’s alive. I’m good.
The rapper I check this site for everday.. is turning into exclusively being a producer.. whyyyy
wait Shake. is this like a continuous mp3 file…?
damnit blu. either way im checking this out.
nvm.
damnit blu stop being so original and innovative
what happened to him? if anything
^^im upping a usershare link so yall can stream it online.
HES JUST BEEN PRODUCING THATS ALL!!
is the rest of the lp for sale? i wanna cop it
my bad i didnt realize it was one big .mp3, good idea by blu i guess
Blu Blu my world is Blu!
haha as long as we know fam is still rocking out in the stu then the world is good.
Fiendin for that project where he’s actually spittin tho, shake got any details yet?
damn blu… last i heard u got signed. then i stopped hearing yo voice on tracks.
now this?
where for art thou blu?………………………
Cant wait for some new Blu, hopefully it’s Blu n Exile. Not saying a self produced album or one with Mainframe or Ta’raach would be a bad thing, but that Blu n Exile is a CLASSIC!!!!!
Hands down classic…Blu is definitely in a league of his own
Sidenote, anyone think blue and j. cole are similar and should do something together like a whole project or something?
fuck. As long as he’s alive. I’m good.
^^^ LMFAOOOOOOOO comedy central
keep making beats blu I see U
I like J. Cole alot but Blu is just damn! on another level.
He’s pretty new relatively speaking, and i have like a hundred songs I love by him. Shit his cotalouge is about as big as some of the vets on my i-tunes.
Never be another…
One of the most talented artist out. Blu is never scared to take chances creatively he’s in a leauge of his own. This is a treat before the feast.
some of these joints are knockin….
the first joint is sick..
blu usually has some unusually beats but this shit is bangin. reminds me of exile with the jazzy samples.
Soul Amazing 3 On Its Way!!!!
SA3 niceee haha. Lookin forward to that fashawn exile collabo album tho, should be nice. Any idea on when it drops anyone?
j.cole could hang around blu in the studio and see if he could pick up something that might make him somewhat memorable…..no prolly wont happen
blu should stay away from j.cole, for fear his mediocrity may rub off
Damn, this took a while. I cut all the tracks up, and they’re all tagged and ready to go for anyone who wants them. Here’s the link…

DTRAIN you know your the fucking man right? lol thanks for doing that!!! lol
Blu is dopecity hahaha
You’re my boy DTRAIN!!
I see you Blu lol. I agree with dude up top, J.Cole and Blu project would be (2)dope. Can’t wait for the project where he rapping on this, any details Shake?
NewBluIsALwaysDope.
Thanks Shake & DTRAIN.
Appreciate your extra effort DTRAIN.
I’m happy to get some new blu, his production is pretty chill
definitely good news that an album is coming…hopefully Spring 2010?
Blu is a good dude. I got to chop it up with him @ SXSW in Austin. Can’t wait to hear some new material from ‘em. I use to bang “Below the Heavens” like a nigga fresh off lock back when I worked graveyards.
This whole album is REALLY GOOD. Blu can produce!
damn I JUST SAID I NEED SOME BEATS then i come here and blu has a instrumental project its a sign from GOD and GODleeBarnes
blu can produce for sure, cant wait to hear him spit over some of these beats…but on an unrelated note, shake how did you only give below the heavens only a 4 on hiphopdx???
remember Blu is part of the new Breakfast Club, Elzhi and Blu would sound AMAZING!!!
yo shake, would you mind making an album art for this one like you did with his last instrumental project?
why does everyone keep asking what happened to Blu? Dude has put out like 5 projects in the last 2 years – Johnson & Johnson, CRAC, Herfavo(u)riteColor, Below the Heavens, So(ul) Amazing. Blu is puttin in work!
good looking DTRAIN
DTRAIN UR THE MAN!!!!!!
beats r amazing! i wud pay to hear Blu spit over them tho, hw awesome wud that sound?!
supa sick! i’d much rather hear some blu verses over these, but it’s so dope i can’t really complain.
FUCK YEAH DTRAIN! Blu is lightyears ahead of all the freshman, so I guess i don’t feel too bad about the recent quiet….
only one long track? no thanks.
BLU IS THE TRUTH. Dopesir, you got it about him being a freshman. he’s like an fly ass 8th grader than was cool before anyone else ever schooled him.
Bless up DTRAIN
blu>j.cole
Lol, I agree blu>j. cole, but I think hearing the two of them on a track would be interesting… I feel like J. Cole is Blu like three years ago.
I love how he’ll spit on the last 3 minutes of this entire project. Nonetheless, he’s the man.
dude is pure inspiration. I feel bad for anyone not fuckin with Blu.
Shake & DTRAIN. Much love.
J. Cole is the only one out competing with Blu on the lyrical level right now..Glad to see Blu spreading the producing wealth tho.
blu got buzz on an album with no words… and to not have been seen in months. i cant wait for that full length. i would cop two of his cds if he dropped today. and im not easily impressed
[...] want to send a mad shout out to 2DopeBoyz, as always, for posting these two gems. I had caught eye of these projects last week, but was [...]
