elaquent kicks off 2018 with his latest ep, celebrate life! celebrate life! is born out of reflection and graciousness, as expressed by elaquent, “life sucks sometimes. with all the depressing things that happen throughout the world, to people you know, to yourself even, it’s important to take a moment and appreciate the beautiful things the world has to offer, to prevent from going crazy. stay positive, celebrate life”. celebrate life! features collaborations with notable producers k, le maestro and dibiase.

hot off his collaboration with madlib and med (bad neighbor), socal ambassador blu has teamed up with the paris-based production team union to present “la counting”, the lead single off their forthcoming album cheetah in the city. featuring remixes by exile, dibiase, and yann kesz, this limited edition 10” delivers blu’s lyrical love letter to los angeles while union’s synth-soaked production marks a stylistic sea change for the below the heavens mc. rippling with 808s and cinematic strings, la counting is an organic evolution from the signature keyboard-driven sound that put union on the map in 2012 with analogtronics, their debut album featuring talib kweli, mf doom, elzhi, guilty simpson, and more. cheetah in the city will be released later this year on fat beats records, but until then the world will have to keep la counting.
