Guess there is no need to introduce Blu, Exile & Fashawn. But just wanted to let you know that their on a Europe Tour right now, so if their in your neighbourhood make sure you get some tickets to see the show. They will perform in my hometown Rotterdam this sunday, and as a promo for the tour the homies Sunan and Grandmaster Lee AKA The Superblenders made this mix. Nice way to get warmed up for the show.

It’s almost time! So many have been waiting for Fashawn‘s debut album “Boy Meets World”. In case you’ve been living under a rock or just tuned in to this talented MC from Cali…wake the f*ck up! This right here is the new crack to listening to. The whole album has a feel to it..hard to explain, but it makes me feel like I just went back in time to when Hip Hop wasn’t a gimmick or media thing. Pure nineties Hip Hop music for your enjoyment. You’ll see what I’m talking about as soon as you listen to the goosebump evoking “Lupita” with some slick ass guitar play.
Is it just me or does this feel like listening to cats like Pharcyde? Imma just say it man. Hip Hop is back…yeah I said it! Fashawn and Exile (who tears up the mic on “Bo Jackson”) hit the nail on the head with this one. Artists like Aloe Blacc, Evidence, Blu, Co$$ and Planet Asia bless this album with a cameo…BUY THIS ALBUM WHEN IT DROPS!!

Fashawn‘s “Boy Meets World” album is coming closer by the day (Oct. 20th). Lately I’ve been seeing one dope video after another. Not only did Punit Dhesi direct the “Sunny CA” video, he also recently did the “Life As A Shorty” vid and that one is simply amazing. Together with the “Our Way” video with Evidence, I count three consecutive homeruns. Can’t wait for the album to drop and I know ya’ll can’t neither. So in the meantime here is another bone to keep you hungry dogs satisfied for the moment. All day, here is “Sunny CA” west up ya’ll..big up Exile.
“Life is a shorty” is the second single from Fashawn’s Boy Meets World, entirely produced by Exile (who is going on a European Tour starting tomorrow, tour dates after the jump). Fashawn’s upcoming album Boy Meets World will be released Spring ’09. Picture: RSM Studios

Aha…finally some Fashawn on MOOVMNT. I heard about this cat a while back and he reminds me a lot of that cat from the Pharcyde on the joint we have for you. When someone told me Exile was producing his upcoming album - “Boy Meets World” – (which drops September 1st) I was sold. This cat has a great delivery, fresh wordplay and charisma. His brand new single – “Freedom” – is now available on iTunes! On the b-side you can find “Our Way” featuring partner in rhyme Evidence. Last, but not least a bonus track…“The Outer City”.
