Crafting beats for Jean Grae's already-recorded vocals, the West Coast underground production duo known as Blue Sky Black Death weaves 11 intricate and finely-nuanced tracks, utilizing eclectic soul, funk, jazz, blues, and rock samples from such artists as Etta James, the Supremes, and the Velvet Underground. THE EVIL JEANIUS INSTRUMENTALS allows hardcore beatheads to delve deeper into the pair's complex production work.
Don't let the title or packaging fool you. THE EVIL JEANIUS is not a remixed version of Jean Grae's collaboration album with superproducer 9th Wonder. Instead, the fast-rising West Coast production duo Blue Sky Black Death (Kingston and Young God) has raided the Babygrande files for 10 of Grae's choicest unreleased recordings and crafted impressively fitting beats around them. The production sounds vary from moody and darkly cinematic to soulful and upbeat. Kingston and Young God flip a loop from the Velvet Underground's "Venus in Furs" to create a mood of lurking menace on the album opener, "Shadows Forever." Elsewhere, the inspired use of church organs and an arrangement of gospel vocals make Jean's lyrical boasting on "Threats" sound like it's being delivered from the pulpit. Short but sweet, THE EVIL JEANIUS is an unlikely gem that stands among Jean Grae's best work.
Personnel: Blade Runner (keyboards).

Bar Stools and Beach Chairs. Finally, a recording about fine furniture. The title track takes me back to when I first started performing. I had a Jeep Grand Wagoneer with all of my stuff loaded in the back. I would play anywhere that would have me, and at the end of the evening I often found myself hours from home or hours from the next gig. I would drive until I got sleepy, then pull over and sleep on the backseat ...
