Originally from Baltimore, San Diego rapper, poet and MC, Blame One is no new jack. Since he was nine years old, this cat has been not only rapping and making songs, but in his early age you could find him on stage. He was one of those young rappers you would see at a show and you would be like "Damn that little white kid is rappin’!" This kid was not even a teenager before he shared the stage with the likes of west coast legend King Tee. After recording some demos over tape loops Blame formed a group with childhood friend Deja Vu called Mysteries Extinction. Deja was cousins with another slept on MC, Gods Gift and they began making music together with then Loot Pack member Kan KIck. One of Blame’s earlier songs was even produced by Madlib, (without his knowledge but recorded by OH NO in 1994.) Moving on to ‘95-‘96 you could catch Blame making songs with the likes of ’s Exile and Aloe Blacc to his current collabos with Mainflow and Johaz.

After all this work you may be asking, why have I never heard of this dude? Well for one, if you really do something for love as Blame does, then love is all the payment you need. Blame is a real humble cat and he was satisfied with just doing local shows and selling his music face to face. Also people are just not checking for cats in San Diego as they should be. But now with help of long time friend Exile, the two have released an album that can not be held back by ‘where you’re from’ but can only be held up in acclaim by ‘where one's at’! With production from Exile, Kan Kick, Black Milk, OH NO and Blu, along with guest vocals from Sean P to Aloe Blacc, this album is not one to sleep on.

With over 19 years of rapping Blame is an OG in the game whether you have heard of him or not, and now is his time to shine. So humbly open your minds, ears and hearts for this new album Days Chasing Days.

It’s a good thing Andrew Thompson managed to finish recording with the mini-orchestra he had crammed into his living room recently – because the next day his landlord decided to kick him out! In one whirlwind weekend, Andrew’s front room recorded a session with a harpist and string section and hosted a cast of twenty friends and actors to film a music video. Later, Andrew lost his keys and had to break into his own apartment. That, coupled with the noise of the past two days was the last straw: His landlord was adamant - “Thompson – you’re out!”. Andrew spent the following weeks couch-surfing, borrowing friends’ guitars, and recording vocals in a variety of kitchens and lounges throughout Brooklyn. The result is his debut album, ‘I’m Not Likely to Change’. ‘I’m Not Likely to Change’ is an intelligent pop album from one of contemporary music’s most talented writer/arrangers. Sounding like a long lost Elvis Costello record produced by Flaming Lips circa Soft Bulletin, the strings and horns borrow a page out the E.L.O. songbook, the melodies reminiscent of Nilsson at his best. The album features Lee and Tyler Sargent of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah on bass and guitar duties. Before this bold debut, Andrew released the cult singles ‘We’re In Business’ and ‘There Must Be Some Kind of Misunderstanding’. Both songs appear as bonus tracks on the album.

Bay-Area Modern Soul and Boogie Funk from 1983. Let Love Take A Holiday was recorded and produced on the Reynolds Records label (Quinn Harris, Steve Marshall, Steve Parks, San Francisco Express). The album has recently gained more attention because of the collectible ‘A Dream Without You’ 7” produced from the album. It is also featured on the new British Compilation ‘Jazz Bizniz 4’ (Counterpoint Records).

By 1983 when Let Love Take A Holiday was recorded politics, drugs and peoples’ perception of love had changed a lot. ‘Free Love’ was no longer accepted. And so the lyrics reflect a more realistic attitude. While shying away from the typical love songs that characterize soul music, Let Love Take A Holiday still retains an innocence and is just as relevant today as it was 25 years ago.
