Young Bleu blessed his fans with the recent ’TANTRA’ drop which came after his previous ‘Moon Boy’ effort went Gold, which is something he promised his fans early on. Speaking with Power Mornings co-hosts Letty and Javen Cannon, the independent singer, rapper, and songwriter chopped it up about his new release and how he’s already worked with so many legends in the game, so early in his career.

Bleu recently experienced some backlash for a DMX flip, which was something that was meant to honor the late rapper, but some fans didn’t appreciate the sample of the classic “How’s It Goin’ Down” track. Bleu explains he was only paying homage to the legend and the Alabama native also reveals that he was in the process of working with the late X on new music prior to his untimely passing.

With features from complete heavy hitters in the game, like Ne-Yo, Ty Dolla $ign, and Nicki Minaj, Blue goes on to share his experience working with those artists guest appearing on his new album, talks about this year’s Grammy nominations, and much more.
