Release Date: 21st November

Awwww man, this is absolutely your hip hop record if you're always out for a big beefy funk, some wild psychedelic rock samples, some off-kilter ad-libs with breaks and flute. That's even before we talk about the elite performances of Myka 9 and Freestyle Fellowship and Blu, who finds himself in a non-stop purple patch. This is straight out of the blocks a classic sounding hip hop record. BANGER!

For those who dig: Mono En Stereo's production (De La Soul, Action Bronson, Mos Def, Prodigy of Mobb Deep, Your Old Droog, Homeboy Sandman, Aesop Rock, Kurious, Fly Anakin, C-Rayz Walz, and more), Madlib, The Alchemist, The Pharcyde...

A true innovator who elevated the art of rhyme to new levels of complexity, Myka 9 emerged in the early 1990s with influential Los Angeles collective Freestyle
Fellowship. After the group sparked California’s underground hip-hop movement with dazzling jazz-inflected flows on two classic albums, Myka launched an
ambitious solo career, further developing his singular style while working with Talib Kweli, Cut Chemist, Prefuse 73, Busdriver, Open Mike Eagle, and more. Blu
took inspiration from pioneers like Freestyle Fellowship in crafting the next generation of electric lyricism, becoming a remarkably consistent presence in the
modern L.A. rap scene. The talented emcee’s deep catalog includes four classics with Exile, albums produced by Evidence, Madlib, Nottz, Oh No, and more,
plus collaborations with The Roots, Logic, J Dilla, Alchemist, Miguel, Kota The Friend, Roc Marciano, and others. Now, Myka 9 and Blu are joining forces for the
new album God Takes Care Of Babies & Fools. “Working with my idols is always the highest honor,” Blu explains. “Myka is the God. He is so untouchable
lyrically, and he can do it all because he has done it all.” The collection is entirely produced by Mono En Stereo, a renowned NYC beatmaker who has crafted
music for De La Soul, Action Bronson, Mos Def, Your Old Droog, Homeboy Sandman, and more. With Mono’s organic sampler concoctions providing an ideal
canvas, Blu and Myka’s rapid-fire linguistics explode into vibrant technicolor, animated by a consistent spiritual undercurrent. With an epic posse cut uniting
Freestyle Fellowship and The Pharcyde plus appearances by Planet Asia, Abstract Rude, Exile, and A-F-R-O, God Takes Care Of Babies & Fools is an
exhilarating collage of rap brilliance.
