In the early '90s the west coast was king. So why did the west coast lose its crown? Simple. Without new blood any dynasty is doomed. In just the last couple of years all that began to change. A new generation of artists began making noise on the scene with an eye towards restoring their coast to it' rightful place. Artists like Fashawn, Pac Div, Blu, Aloe Blacc and now, U-N-I. In late 2006, the Hip Hop duo U-N-I, whose name is taken from the Roots track UNIverse have teamed up with fellow up-and-coming beatsmith Ro Blvd to deliver an album that's simultaneously futuristic and rooted in hip-hop's past to make U-N-I the new leaders of the LA new school. In a suddenly crowded West Coast underground they deserve a great deal of recognition for delivering one of the stronger releases of the year. The duo of MCs Y-O and Thurzday along with producer Ro Blvd creating a synth/key-oriented rainbow with a sound that is at times jazzy and most definitely diverse. Ro traveling into quasi-Neptunes territory including the classic west coast rattle pushes his instrumentals into an absolutely hypnotizing affair. Now U-N-I release a vinyl edition of their critically acclaimed instant classic entitled A Love Supreme 2.0. The reworking of the entire project features five brand new tracks and the MCs Fashawn, Bun B, Miguel and Evidence of Dilated Peoples to sweeten the package. If you like fresh hip-hop, and women, there's no way you won't like Love Supreme 2.0. The vinyl will be limited to 500 copies. No repress, so order accordingly!
