News: Salar

At long last, the much anticipated solo joint from Blah family OG, Sly Moon, is out in all its funk-laden glory. After a string of tantalising singles, last Friday saw the full release of an album which not only serves as a platform for Sly's much loved flows, but also as a showcase for the newly formed production duo, Sohio Players, comprised of Sly and Salar. The album is out now on both digital and vinyl, along with some accompanying merch, all of which you can find here.

We're keeping the Sly Moon content coming as we stay building the hype for his solo LP, which is due for release very soon. Getting Slyer As The Time Goes By is the latest single to be taken from the album, featuring more production from newly formed duo, Sohio Players - aka Sly Moon and Salar. The video was made by Honey JD. Why Am I So Sly? is due for release on 30 November, with pre-orders for merch and music available now.

Big release here, as Salar delivers a brand new solo single and video. Under Pressure sees the Blah veteran teaming up with friend of the Cult, Drae Da Skimask, who bring his production wizardry to the proceedings. The video was made by Lee Scott. As well as the video, you can also stream the track at all the usual spots.

It's almost time for us to release the heavily anticipated solo album from COTD's own Sly Moon, and so to help you lot get in the mood, we thought we would offer up a new video in the interim. Why Am I So Sly? is the anthemic title track from the album and features production from Sohio Players aka Sly Moon and Salar. The video was made by Honey JD. The album is due for release on 30 November; stay tuned for more on that shortly.

To coincide with the merch drop, we thought we would stage a little 5-a-side footy match for the Cult. As you can see from the photos below, it was a huge success and I doubt it will be long before you see some more familiar faces in the Premiership. All credit to Harvey for the photos (IG: @hwfpht).

It's been a while since we treated you to some new COTD material, so today we bring you a brand new video from the crew, plus some merch and vinyl news.

OFFIE is the first we've heard from the Cult since their 2018 album, but as you will see and hear, they have lost none of that unbridled raw sweg energy in the interim. Featuring Lee, Milk, Barebase, Shakes, Grubb, Sly Moon and Salar, plus some suitably gritty production from Lee and Wholesome Fun, this is COTD in their purest form.

The video was released to coincide with the new COTD vinyl that has just gone up for pre-order, as well as a new logo tee, which you can see in the video being worn to devastating effect. Both the vinyl and t-shirt are available to order now.

As Cult of the Damned gear up for what will undoubtedly be a legendary takeover at The Jazz Cafe next week, today saw the release of their latest video. Once again it's a gang affair, as the supercrew go in on a nice piece of Lee Scott production. Great video too, courtesy of Broken Antenna. Nicole is lifted from the Cult of The Damned: Part Deux album, which is available to buy now over at the Blah store. Tickets for The Jazz Cafe are available here.

Next month will see a Blah Records takeover of one of London's legendary venues, The Jazz Cafe, as Cult Of The Damned swarm into town, bringing with them their infamous brand of live action, high octane, God-like rap music.

The show promises to be the full immersive Cult experience, as the complete roster of artists take to the stage and execute what is sure to go down as another legendary one-off performance.

Fans can expect appearances from Blah visionaries Lee Scott, Milkavelli, Black Josh, Stinkin Slumrok, King Grubb, Bill Shakes, Barebase, Sly Moon, Bisk, Salar, Tony Broke and Sniff, as the crew perform material from their three albums, which span across 12 years since their Tourettes Camp debut back in 2007.

The event is taking place on 28 February and tickets are available now via TicketWeb, but be warned that they will sell out fast.
