Who is Blu?
Blu is a 25 year old rapper from California. XXL recently named him one of the Top 10 Freshmen of 09'. Not sure exactly how they define freshman, since to date, he has released three full-length albums, one under the name Blu, one with the group C.R.A.C. Knuckles, and one with Johnson & Johnson.
He just released a mixtape entitled HerFavoriteColo(u)r which can be found via zShare and Mediafire
HerFavoriteColo(u)r is basically a laid-back, hip-hop pastiche of Billie Holiday, Wes Anderson, Charlie Kaufman, Ella Fitzgerald, Radiohead, among other well-chosen source material.
This is definitely some of the freshest production and rhyming I've heard in a while. Also, no autotune or Lil Wayne, which is turning out to be a major plus.
