Blu & Exile are a formidable underground duo from Los Angeles. These two up and comings have already created what some are calling a 'timele...ss hip hop classic" with their collaborative effort "Below the Heavens". Both are artists in their own right and are masterful in their field. Blu's career is about to explode having just signed to Warner, he gained respect for his work as Johnson & Jonson, and now recently working with the legendary Roots crew. Blu has a way of delivering his rhymes so that people across borders, age groups and genres can relate.

Exile, with his albums “Dirty Science”, "Radio" and the critically acclaimed follow up AM/FM released on
Plug Research, has proven himself to be not only a master of the MPC but also a bohemian sample poet and a forward thinking producer.

The Cape Town show will also mark the launch of KOL crew Mingus' album "Beneath the Underdog". Holding it down on the decks will be Raiko, ID, and White Nite.

Joburg will be hosted by Scoop and feature one of South Africa's heaviest hitters in Hip Hop, Tumi. Joining him on the lineup will be Cape Town's ILL Skillz and 5th Floor with XO reppin the Jozi heads. ID, Raiko, and Wireless G will be on the beats.
