Miles: From An Interlude Called Life marks the triumphant return of critically acclaimed hip-hop duo Blu & Exile, their first full-length project together in eight years. Released in 2020 on Dirty Science, this album celebrates a fusion of jazz-infused instrumentals and thoughtful lyricism, placing Blu’s nimble wordplay over Exile’s rich, sample-heavy production. The project stands as a tribute to Blu's son, Miles Elijah Barnes, adding depth and personal resonance to its already expansive sound.
This expansive album has been hailed as a standout in modern conscious hip-hop, weaving together elements of jazz, soul, and rap with introspective themes and dazzling musicality. Praised for its vibrant energy and creative instrumentation, Miles showcases both artists at the peak of their artistry, making it an essential listen for fans of genre-bending hip-hop and jazz rap alike.
