Keeping up with his fellow "Freshman Class" (XXL magazine thing), Cali's Blu has released a mixtape in order to keep his hype out there. And he doesn't disappoint. Full of movie samples (including an excellent one from Closer) and smokey jazz snippets, Blu has produced a sweet little album (er, mixtape). Never dwelling too long on a track (the album last only about 30 minutes) Blu and his easy-style flow are sublime. Worth a listen to take you back to the good old days of "jazz rap" (see: A Tribe Called Quest, Gang Starr).
