Blu is a prolific rapper and producer from Los Angeles with a charismatic SoCal everyman demeanor. He was championed at the outset of his recording career when he collaborated with Emanon DJ/producer Exile for the highly acclaimed LP Below the Heavens (2007). He hit Billboard's Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart with another Exile collaboration, Give Me My Flowers While I Can Still Smell Them (2012), and did it again with Good to Be Home (2014). Since then, his discography has grown at an even faster pace, highlighted by LPs recorded with the likes of MED and Madlib (2015's Bad Neighbor), Nottz (2018's Gods in the Spirit, Titans in the Flesh), and Oh No (2019's A Long Red Hot Los Angeles Summer Night). In 2025, Blu teamed up with outside-the-box producer August Fanon for the collaborative project Forty.
