Description With the release of Love (the) Ominous World, Blu & Exile have returned with an album that brilliantly builds on their soulful, reflective foundation with stunning musicality and sharp songwriting. Their shared history as one of hip-hop's best duos continues to grow, especially as they venture into new territory while embracing and refining what made them special. "This album is our most unique work to date," Blu says. "We took a different approach with the direction while still staying true to the culture our music has built with our fan base." That direction is one that finds the two California natives crafting records that would sound right at home on the radio and hip-hop charts. Like "Suga & Butta," for example, which features recent Def Jam signee Rae Khalil and rising star Ahmad Anwar. Every element of the track is as sweet and smooth as it's namesake, from the lyrics to the production. There's also the raw G-funk banger "Chucks," a snarling collaboration with West Coast stalwarts KXNG Crooked and Kurupt. Love (the) Ominous World is a defining moment for Blu & Exile, who are eager to share it with both their longtime fanbase as well as those just catching onto their celebrated discography.
