Today's Song of the Day, as chosen by Cheryl Waters, host of The Midday Show on KEXP, is "Baptism" by Blimes & Gab, from the 2020 album Talk About It on B.A.G. Enterprises.
Over the past few years, Seattle's own Gifted Gab and San Francisco-based artist Blimes Brixton have been teasing our ears with a handful of singles (like their 2017 breakthrough track “Come Correct”), but earlier this summer, they finally released their debut full-length album, Talk About It.
“In order to talk about it, you got to be about it. Me and Gab have loved to prove time and time again that we’re about it,” Blimes said in a recent interview with the GRAMMYS. "I think the vision behind [our album] is just, they’re always going to have something to say, always going to have something to talk about, so might as well give them something to talk about."
Blimes & Gab will be LIVE on KEXP at HOME on Tuesday, September 22nd at 3:00 PM PT.
