Miles: From an Interlude Called Life (sau mai pe scurt Miles) este cel de-al 3-lea album al lui Blu și Exile și a fost lansat în data de 17 iulie 2020, prin Dirty Science Records. Albumul a fost lansat după exact 13 ani de la albumul de debut Below the Heavens.
2020 marks eight years since Blu & Exile's last full length album 'Give Me My Flowers While I Can Still Smell Them'. Now in an effort to make up for lost time, the dynamic duo are back to drop the double album 'Miles: From An Interlude Called Life' ('Miles' for short). Released through Dirty Science Records, the album includes features from Blu‘s childhood friend and now platinum recording artist Miguel, Exile’s childhood friend Aloe Blacc, Dirty Science alum Fashawn, along with several emerging artists like The Last, Artful Dodger, Choosey, Iman Omari, and more!
'Miles' is slated for a July 17th release (coincidentally the same day as their lauded debut 'Below The Heavens'). “We planted the seeds of creativity and grew about 40 plants,” Exile says of the release. “We picked the ones that we thought were the best for an album, but that didn’t mean that the other flowers weren’t beautiful.”
Blu & Exile are ready to prove they haven’t missed a beat, as their undeniable chemistry is once again put on display.credits
