Blu, the super talented emcee who throughout the years have worked with acclaimed producers such as Exile, Pete Rock, and J Dilla, has over the last year more and more taken what he learned from these and others and started focusing on a producer career of his own. On the newly released "YES" EP, the LA alumni supplies newcomer Cookbook with eight soul dripping, layered and heavily thumping beats. While Cookbook for sure isn't the best emcee around, he occassionally comes up with an interesting verse and coupled with Blu's growing production and guest features from Frank Nitty, John Pigeon and Playdough it works as a nice Little follow-up to Blu's first full-length forray into the production game, "Open" (2011). You can stream the entire eight track EP below via Bandcamp, where you can also purchase it, unless iTunes is your digital retailer of choice.
