He ride the beat so well, always communicate well with the sample like in joints like "My World Is" and "I Am Blu" he always call and response with the sample talking.
Dope word play, ill samples, and hella subject matter, def' one of the few dope niggas of he old school.
Search Eddie Pesos "Greatness" Puerto Rock kid from PA, droppin' ill joints on the mic, you won't be dissapointed.
@divinityboy It doesn't contain naked ladies grinding their asses over luxury cars and African Americans waving with money - I don't think this is original :)
Man, I had instant respect for this guy when I heard Billie Holiday. This was the first song I heard by him and I absolutely love Billie Holiday. She is one of my favorite singers ever, if not THE favorite. This guy is good.
I'm surprised that I haven't seen it mentioned, but in reference to those looking for the instrumental at the end...the original song that's sampled to make it is Radiohead's "You and Whose Army". It's some of radiohead's best work IMO... hope that helps somehow. It was chopped dopely for this.
"Amnesia" is quickly becoming one of my favorite blu songs next to "I am..." and "Vibrate". I haven't been into a new artist for years....Blu to me is the hope for the future barring DJ's/producers.
@TheJJA Just because you can't find a pulse.. doesn't mean it's not there. Yeah I tried to weave in some kind of paramedic schtick in there but the point stands.
I use to have peace serenity, teaching divinity. break bread sippin the blood eating with enemies. blind. pearl on my mind thinking we finna be. this, that, and the third boy did i learn. tables turned, Billy Holiday, burn down's play where my nervs drown my folks away
blu heart , red skies, true art died in the heart of my mind, kept tryin to fullfill this, blank scrippled reallness, even if it kills this, poet inside:)
