The Good Sin x 10.4 Rog “The Crown” dir. Detooz Films

Our paths intersected in LA during the tour and The Good Sin was the host for our three shows in SoCal. Catch my cameo. I’m rapping in a suit.

I wrote an op-ed piece on Al Jazeera English about visiting Occupy sites in different cities while touring, read it here.

Blue Scholars’ Geologic: A Maintained Seattle BrainInterview by Trent Moorman for The Stranger


  Is writing a song similar to taking a picture? Framing? Light? Meter?
I think about this all the time. I think all creative outlets are essentially different forms of the same human act. There’s expression, communication. Framing, yes. There are the things that you know are there, and then the things you want to show other people. There are things that get excluded on purpose, or things that you include on purpose. There are parts where you think that’s what you want to show people, and there’s feedback with what you’re working on, and you realize it’s not cool, so you refocus and reframe or change the exposure. There’s the aspect of seeing what other people have done, and emulating that, then maybe trying your own thing.

Blue Scholars on KNOCKSTEADY LIVE

Watch me rap. The song is called Seijun Suzuki, it’s on Cinemetropolis, and the recorded version features Thig Natural of The Physics on the hook. “We got hella class like a bidet” is all him.

Blue Scholars - bell hooks (unfinished)

Speaking of love and music, here’s an old unfinished, unmixed, unreleased track we wanted to share, impulsively—like so many matters of the heart—with you all today. 

Love,
Blue Scholars
