BLU & EXILE Below The Heavens / 2x LP NEW VINYL / Coalmine 2024
2024 reissue - The world received a true hip - hop classic with 2007’s release of, Below The Heavens . And with Blu & Exile’s recent acquisition of the album’s master rights, the duo are pleased to join forces with Coalmine Records for a special, deluxe edition reissue! Throughout the album’s 15 tracks, you can here Blu & Exiles shared intent, which was to create something that was distinctly their own. They were young, hungry artists with gifts they wanted the world to hear, not only to showcase their abilities but to al so reveal another side of West Coast rap. The early to mid aughts was a dichotomous time for L.A. hip - hop especially. The underground was brimming with creative releases from acts like Freestyle Fellowship and Living Legends, but to the rest of the world, gangster rap remained the city’s calling card. Before there was even a Blu & Exile, the producer kept hearing about this up - and - coming rapper named Blu who was performing at venues throughout the city. And it was one of Exile’s other collaborators, Aloe Blacc (who formed Emanon with Exile), who helped bring the duo together. The two immediately hit it off, and embarked on a recording spree where the blueprint for Below The Heavens began to take shape. The duo laid down more than 50 tracks steeped in lived truths and tack - sharp writing from Blu as well a s Exile’s jaw - dropping sample flips and drums. Through painstaking decisions and track sequencing, the end result was a modern classic in the style of Blu’s biggest influences — Nas, Common, Planet Asia, and DMX. Below The Heavens beautifully captures a special place and time for the then fledgling duo, while remaining a timeless piece of art. It’s shivers - inducing nostalgic, but also modern in its sentiments and voice. It’s a classic.
