Blu To Release Amnesia On Valentine’s Day

While we still wait for Blu to drop his next full-length, NoYork, (hopefully) later this year, he is releasing a quickstrike EP on V-Day. At this point, anything is better than nothing right? Check out the cover art up top, tracklist down bottom.

Los Angeles MC/producer Blu has earned widespread acclaim for his collaborations with Exile, Ta’Raach, and Mainframe, and is currently at work on his major label debut for Warner Brothers. While fans wait, New World Color is happy to announce a digital EP (also available on limited edition 10″ vinyl) featuring music from Blu’s love-themed concept album Her Favorite Colo(u)r, as well as previously unheared material.

The 7-track Amnesia EP is sure to please Blu’s burgeoning fanbase. On tracks like the HFC standout “Amnesia” and the never-before-released “Amnesia(Rewind)”, the SoCal native explores the complexities of love and relationships while his own understated production sets the mood. The collection also features previously-unavailable instrumentals, showcasing Blu’s skills behind the boards. Amnesia goes digital on February 15th, just in time for Valentine’s day, and the collectible vinyl 10″ version hits stores shortly after, on March 1st. A full release of HFC is set for this spring.

  1. blu is that nigga!

  2. damn, can´t wait 2 cop this 1

  3. In my native language “Blue” also means “Ghey”

  4. Every time I see news about Blu, it’s like the first time I heard the Beatles.

    YouMyBoyBlu

  5. FINALLY SOMETHING NEW & OFFICIAL FROM BLU!

  6. Old tracks but hopefully better sound quality

  7. herfavcolor is pure bliss

  8. Whenever I make a Best of Blu playlist or cd it usually has all of the HFC tracks as standard

  9. DragonBalls no one cares about your native language. Blu is the truth. He spits real shit on soulful tracks. He is not to be fucked with

  10. blu sucked my dick last night

  11. At this point who cares Noyork going to be as trash as CRAC project was.
    Gave up on waiting for dope shit from him. Blu fell off with the raps for sure.
    Now he’s tryna be on some next level look, but I don’t think he gets minus exile not much has been remarkable.

  12. ^what he said

  13. the last project he dropped on vday was DOPE

  14. Amnesia goes digital on February 15th, just in time for Valentine’s day
    ===========================================

    Fail.

  15. Nice. I’ve wanted the Amensia instrumental for quite sometime. This will be a purchase.

  16. @MacTim The Amnesia instrumental is already out.

    What we really need is the instrumental for Wind(terlude), that beat gives me the shivers. Oh, and for those who care Blu put up 4 new tracks on his myspace.

  17. Agreed with both “nuts” up top.
    Peoples anticipation is that he’ll go back to bth sound which he won’t. His new exile stuff has sucked so far. And lmao to the pressrelease. Everyone Hated the taraach project.

  18. Why would he release it as a 10″

  19. The CRAC stuff wasn’t the best, but his Johnson&Jonson project was solid, had a few gems on there. HerFavoriteColo(u)r was dope, as was theGODleeBarnes(lp). I expect big things from Blu, NoYork should be good.

  20. i just want new music screw all these instrumentals. geeze

  21. HIS BUZZ IS GONE. I’ve moved on to artist that actually drop music NUFF SAID.

  22. ^ Only thing buzzing is the sound quality of the recent tracks he has put out.

  23. rofl @ 2 tracks and adding instrumental version to call it full EP whats that all about nigga blu

  24. Red do you think you could choose another name? I’ve been using red for over a year now. Not a big deal I guess.

    Either way, Blu is amazing I can’t wait for this project.

    @Yaboyrampz
    Are you talking about WhatAreYouAsking, BenDe’Preenz, Enhale, and theDevilOnSkates?

    Finally, how has Blu fallen off? Seasons was really good (imo), The Richers was the best song off MSTRD, SLNGBNGRs was weird but lets remember he’s done songs with FlyLo before, and EaseYourMind sounded really good.

    You shouldn’t be so impatient about art. Maybe your favorite rapper can put out a song a day because all they do are rhyme and talk about bullshit, but Blu’s music is much deeper than that.

    My bad if this was a double post.

  27. Or a triple post =/…thanks a lot duplicate comment and slow down you’re posting too fast errors.

  28. Since when is Feb 15th “just in time for Valentine’s”??? lmao

  29. Gotta get that Vinyl yo.

  30. @red Yeah even though they’re not really full songs. I dunno why people are saying he’s fallen off either but that’s the nature of internet hip hoppers nowadays. One minute they’re swinging from your dick and doing cartwheels on your scrotum and the next they act like they weren’t even a fan in the first place. If anything the reason why Hip Hop is supposedly fucked up is not because of the artists but the fans.

  31. SINCE is my shit

  32. rofl @ 2 tracks and adding instrumental version to call it full EP whats that all about nigga blu
