Blue Scholars

The scholars offer up sounds that mesh with the collaborative cap hill demographic. Stand up and fall down! Like cap hill, an area of Seattle where one must work hard to find their place, this song speaks about perseverance and rebuilding. Ideas important if you wanna make it to the top.

The beats take me back to old RBL Posse and south bay albums. Power for the people! Everyone is singing along and TBS rocks yet another Seattle crowd. Gander On!

Blue Scholars

Only 30 minutes late... The scholars come out to a fresh tune with a Weezer sample. The sun sets. All heads bob in agreement. Sabzi on the tables gets the arms pumping. Tilt yo hat to the side and sing it if you know it. Gander On!

Blue Schoalrs "Bayani" Album Review

Jbuc the latest ninja to join the team gives us this review of the New Blue Scholars Album "Bayani" and rates it four ninja stars out of five. Check it out below.

Geologic must be taking his daily intake of “beats rhymes and rice” as he claims on Bayani the Blue Scholars 2nd full-length and 3rd overall since 2004. That’s the only way to explain how the group can consistently keep the northwest ablaze with side projects yet keep the main product worth every penny of your 15 dollars. Although their motto is to blend the personal and political while partying in the process there aren’t any outright club bangers in the vein of “Motion-Movement” or “Blink” off of their self-titled debut. There aren’t any bad songs though either with quite a few standouts. Very political and Seattle-centric it’s more for a sunny day in Pike’s Place than a night out in Belltown.

Standout tracks: Fire for the people, Loyalty, Bayani

Misses: None
