Expecting more from Blu? You got it but don’t say that he’s disappeared. He’s nice enough to not oversaturate the market. Quality over quantity. Btw, I saw him in SF last Friday and asked him about when we can expect a new project from him and he said this summer. It might just be this one but with Blu, you never know. From Blu’s Tumblr.

RecordedLike…FuckIt,WhyNot
This just made my day. Blu = Dopest MC out. Period.
cant wait!
By the way, it’s gonna be nice to finally hear him spit on these beats. Most, if not all of them were on his Open the Instrumental LP.
blu’s dope lookin foward to this
Oh god, YES. New Blu = Madness.
This Summer? Blu + J. Cole album = Epic.
Blu, Fashawn, and J. Cole only new cats I like.
PEACE
just perfect
i love this motherfucker.
The album was titled: MySpaceBarIsBroken
Blu is crazy….. Crazy Awesome
Cool to see him spitting over his OpenTheInstrumentalLp instrumentals. Hanging with Exile has rubbed off on him. Blu is by far one of the most dopest MCs out at the moment.
^HAHAHAHA
I’m real excited for this though, Blu is my shit.
MySpaceBarIsBroken haha thats good shit. but hell yea, Blu + J. Cole = summertime awesomeness
Blu = J.Cole = Jay Elec > CuDi > B.o.B = Drake > Fashawn > Wale
All sick though, no hate.
cant wait to hear him over raw….prob my fav beat on that tape…and MySpaceBarIsBroken is as hella dope title for blu’s project
below the heavens>illmatic>ready to die
I heard that track 4 is going to be featuring The Based God himself, Lil B. If so this could end up being album of the year.
would it be too much to ask for this dude to just write shit out so its legible and makes sense, or is that part of his appeal? either way, blu dope, but my time is valuable (quite obviously) and having to get out my blu-to-english translation tools every time i see something form this dude tends to rub me the wrong way.
and @sloop – i’m all for dick-ridin ya homeboy and all, but bth > illmatic & ready to die? son, you a crazy mufugga.
I like this guy alot. His beat selection is very classy. Very conceptual and artistic, kind of abstract. Paint brush rap.
below the heavens is dope BECAUSE of ILLMATIC. READY TO DIE is just another beast altogether imo.
^^^^^^^^^
Thats the same way I would describe Lil b
Fashawn > Blu > Jay-E > Wale > CuDi/BoB/Charles Hamilton/XV/Big Sean
^^ All of theirs album will be copped!
This already came out back in January wtf. It was called theGODleeBarnes(lp)
any idea on when the new Blu & Exile project drops?
old
Blu was in SF last week and instead of performing he just played his Ipod. wtf? your fans were there in full support to see you get down and you diss ‘em like that? Blu is one of the most talented MCs but in no way should any artist fuck his fans over like that period.
If I survive the next few days,I’ll be looking forward to this…
big things, looking forward to whatever he releases this summer
my two cents anyway:
jay e > blu > j cole > fashawn > BoB > wale > cudi >>>>> drake
This isn’t theGODleeBarnes(lp), it’s Open(theInstrumentalLP).
And it doesn’t say anything about him recording over the beats.. I think Blu copied&pasted his last blog post from Myspace and put it on Tumblr.
But if he does come out with a project with vocals over Open instrumentals that would be sick! but I doubt it.
quality over quantity… his shit be sounding low budget… cant bump it in the ride
& whoever puts Drake in their top 5 – even top 10 – has got shit twisted!

AndAJayElectronicaLineThatCrushedMyAlbumTheme”
I wonder what the Jay Elec line was
@Harharhar
you are either a fucking idiot with no taste in music and a fag, or a troll for liking lil b and for even bringing up his gay ass that nigga calls himself a pretty bitch and a princess and to add to it he cant rap and you like him you are a fucking fag
@lasean…sumthin tells me harharhar was being sarcastic…@kmann & weava…Drake pre-Young Money is just as good as all of those rappers u listed, except mayb Jay E
@JonnieHayward
naw he always make stupid ass comments like that so he is either stupid or a fag
@lasean
Did Lil B fuck your girl or something? You seem to have some issue with The Based God and that you should take up with him instead of cursing like a sailor and saying mean and hateful things to someone you don’t know. Im just tryin to promote positivity by spreading the word of god aka Lil B.
Pretty Bitch Nation stand up!
Phalary if u talked to him at the SF show did u ask him why he decided to shaft all of us fans who paid $ to see him perform? That was a bitch move and he lost a fan. I don’t give a fuck who he is, how he gon play songs off his iTunes am state at his computer screen on stage? He needs to issue a public apology. I’ve supported this guy over the years by buying his albums. I drove an hr into sf to catch him live for the first time. I heard he had gotten bad news or something? What a prima Donna! It ain’t over till the fat lady sings! In show biz they teach u that the show must go on!
blu >
dude’s an artist. period.
u take a look at the “credits”????
on track 9 he samples “AJayElectronicaLineThatCrushedMyAlbumTheme”
Jay Elect has an influence on him which is good to know. I’m sure his got an influence on Jay Elect too.
i just meant its a classic sonnnnn
NICE! Blu is dope.
I can’t stand the way he types
Isn’t this the Open instrumental album Blu dropped awhile back tho? Same tracklist that’s for sure, or is this gonna be him makin’ tracks over those beats?
i also would love to know what Jay ELectronica line CRUSHED Blu’s main album theme!
I hope it sounds dope people say hes dope but I really never liked any of his songs so I hope this is NICE!!!!!!!!
^^^^^^ Nothin caught my ears for attention , the beats arent good is what I mean to say and his lyrics were avergae on the songs I listened too so Blu im expecting big fromt his album or mixtape u got comin<<<<
yo this nigga space bar broke or what?
Can somebody cop this nigga a space bar? While your at it, teach him proper case.
Hey homie you do realize this is the tracklist he dropped to an instrumental album a while back right?…lol
gosh darn im excited =)
the Jay Elec line he’s talking about is “Fuck that, fuck rap, this god hop, kingdom music for the hard rocks”. I know this because on that song (WeDance.ThoughIWalk,WeUsedToFly) on the open instrumental lp, thats the sample Blu used.
But I think this is just an old post about the open instrumental LP. Hope he actually is talking about rappin over the beats though.
i wanna suck all of the Rap Bandits seeds at the same time
a sample from a Saul Williams poem? redick and dope. I have always loved Blu but i have respect for that shit for real!
Isn’t the instrumentals out already?
Can you repost this link. I’ve been trying to a minute to download and I cant. Thanks.
Blu & J. Cole >>>>
