The prolific LA emcee hires a crack team for his latest effort.
Last spotted on 2013’s York and a pair of EP collaborations with Madlib and M.E.D., Cali rapper Blu has now lined up a 20-track double album titled Good To Be Home.
The follow-up to York features appearances from Mobb Deep’s Prodigy, producer and rapper Alchemist, Dilated Peoples MC Evidence and Odd Future affiliate Casey Veggies.
Also peeking out from the extensive tracklist are Imani of The Pharcyde, Thurz, M.E.D., Oh No and many more.
Good To Be Home will be available in double CD, double cassette and double LP formats on May 20, with 1000 translucent gold vinyl copies also available. Meanwhile a deluxe edition, limited to 200 units, will include the double CD, double cassette and gold vinyl along with a T-shirt, poster, two sheets of stickers, five packs of custom matches, limited edition 7″ of ‘The West’ and a bag (!).
