The track &#8220;The Blues&#8221; is aggressive and loud with screaming organs, laying down a backdrop for two very different perspectives rooted in the rough reality of lived experience from the heart of Motown, Detroit. This is the first single of Design&#8217;s upcoming producer\/emcee album. Next to Phat Kat and Elzhi, other notable guests on the album are <strong>Fashawn<\/strong>, <strong>Guilty Simpson<\/strong>, <strong>LMNO<\/strong> and <strong>Gennessee<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"197412\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/dj-design-x-phat-kat-x-elhzi-the-blues\/dj-design-the-blues-thumbnail\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DJ-Design-The-Blues-Thumbnail.png?fit=1920%2C1080&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1920,1080\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DJ Design &amp;#8211; The Blues Thumbnail\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DJ-Design-The-Blues-Thumbnail.png?fit=540%2C304&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DJ-Design-The-Blues-Thumbnail.png?fit=640%2C360&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-197412\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DJ-Design-The-Blues-Thumbnail.png?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"   srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DJ-Design-The-Blues-Thumbnail.png?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DJ-Design-The-Blues-Thumbnail.png?resize=540%2C304&amp;ssl=1 540w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DJ-Design-The-Blues-Thumbnail.png?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DJ-Design-The-Blues-Thumbnail.png?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DJ-Design-The-Blues-Thumbnail.png?resize=1536%2C864&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DJ-Design-The-Blues-Thumbnail.png?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For his new single, producer DJ Design teams up with Phat Kat &amp; Elzhi from&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-197411","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-audio"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pG6fW-Pm3","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197411","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=197411"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197411\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=197411"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=197411"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=197411"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
