As longtime hip-hop heads know, Bliss n Eso can hold their own in the cypher. Off the Grid shows the duo tackling personal and political demons. Tracks like “Dopamine” and “Off the Grid” refuel the soul, throwing blows at daily obstacles and the world’s ills. Soul legend Lee Fields lends his big voice to “Friend Like That” and “Soul Glo.” And Bliss n Eso uphold the tradition of shouting out their turntable technician, letting DJ Izm get busy on “Whatever Happened to the DJ.”
