Video: Blueprint - So Alive

Well, well... I thought I had this guy put into the dark sounding deep lyricist corner (like this one here). Now he shows us he can drop a song that I could imagine being played on the radio. As a matter of fact when I turn down the music I can hear Aloe Blacc throught the open window playing on the radio. Who would have thought?

Video: Blueprint - Radio-Inactive // "Adventures in Counter-Culture" drops march 2011

 

Critically acclaimed mc/producer and Soul Position frontman Blueprint, returns with his highly anticipated sophomore solo release Adventures in Counter-Culture. Experimenting with synths, keyboards, and drum machines, Adventures in Counter-Culture touches on Blueprint’s cynicism with the world, his disdain for pop culture, the state of politics and an apathetic, uninspired society. The album encompasses every facet of music Blueprint knows. It blurs genre lines and connects his hip hop pedigree with his early days in the church choir, to the R&B bands he was a part of in high school, to his new found interest in rock and electronic music. After a five year musical journey, Blueprint has emerged with his greatest effort to date. A culmination of self discovery and societal critique, Adventures in Counter-Culture is just that. The adventure begins March 1st, 2011.

Hello friends.  In preparation for the release of the new Blueprint Who EP that I will be dropping next week, the upcoming tour w/ Atmosphere, and my upcoming full-length album Adventures in Counter-Culture scheduled for release on Rhymesayers Entertainment later this year, I created this free “Best of Blueprint” mix.  I hope it will serve as a refresher for those who are already familiar with my music, and a good introduction to those who are new to my music.

We appreciate that Dude Blueprint always keep us updated. The Rhymesayers artist drops his "Best Of" as a preadvice for his upcoming projects. Give that dope Mcee a listen and grab the Mixtape above. For more infos check the posts at the blog.yo

Audio: Grayskul feat. Blueprint - Blueskul

download blueskul mp3

In 2005, shortly after my album 1988 came out, i was on the Scribble Jam tour with my dude DJ Raregroove, Mr. Dibbs, and Glue. The tour ended in Portland, OR but instead of driving back with everybody else, me and raregroove decided to spend a few days in Portland kicking it and then fly back to Ohio later that week. Considering everybody else on the tour was gonna be trapped in a bus for 2 or 3 days in route to Ohio, getting drunk everyday and kicking it in portland seemed like a much better option. So we played darts, went out, dug for records, and while i was there i recorded a song with my fellow rhymesayers brethren Grayskul. The song is called “Blueskul” and its produced by Coley Cole.

It was intentionally slated for their second album Deadlivers, but the song didn’t make the cut. Considering I hadnt heard the song since i wrote and recorded it (and had never heard a version with Greyskuls verses on it), i was was pretty happy they sent it to me last week. Either way the song is now 5 years old and since nobody has really heard it i figure i would give it to you all.

www.illpoetic.com

Hi, my name is ill poetic, an artist/producer from Cincinnati, OH. I noticed on your site a recent post about Illogic and Blueprint (Greenhouse) "Electric Purgatory". Preceding this release, Illogic and I released his LP through Blueprint's Weightless Recordigns in March 2009. I just wanted to pass this post on to you if you're interested in sharing it: (thnx)
----
Just wanted to round out the end of the year with a lost Illogic song from the "Diabolica Fun" sessions:

"Graveyard" (prod. by ill poetic) is an unreleased song that didn't make the final version of Illogic's "Diabolical Fun" (released earlier this year). The song originally closed out the album, but was cut because it just seemed a little too dark for the overall feel of the record (the song sounds like it looks outside). We figured we'd give something away for free for the holidays to remind people of Illogic's comeback LP as well as his current Greenhouse EP with Blueprint. Also attatched are some "Diabolical Fun" snippets for anyone who hasn't checked for it yet. On the Ill Po side of releases, be prepped for a 2010 full of projects/odd ideas (inluding the official follow-up to "The World Is Ours").

"Diabolical Fun" can be purchased for 20% off right now @ weightlessmerchandise.com

We thank our Bro* Ill Poetic for sharing that nice song with us.I hope all the German Fellahs out their,will be influenced by good topic rap and anti-mainstream bizzzz.Illogic is damn Good!
