This news will delight hip-hop and organic music fans: Rapper SHEEF THE 3RD will release a 7-inch vinyl record on March 12, 2025. This anticipated edition finally materializes one of the artist’s most acclaimed tracks. The main title, “b.l.u.e. -but love ur enemies-” results from a remarkable collaboration. The melody, carried by guitarist Kazuki Isogai’s simultaneously warm and melancholic chords, has been transformed into a composition by producer Goro Kumai. SHEEF THE 3RD’s flow harmonizes perfectly with Hanah Spring‘s soulful voice on this rich musical foundation.
This successful combination has allowed the track to reach a wider audience. It has even become a true anthem in the Shonan region. Already popular in streaming and through its music video, the title now experiences a new life thanks to this vinyl format. The record also includes on the B-side the title “Tashikana Koto“, supported by production from DJ BAKU, where SHEEF THE 3RD celebrates an authentic vision of strength. This vinyl represents the journey of a man who, after experiencing failures and regrets, discovered genuine kindness and love for others by becoming a father of two children and through numerous meaningful encounters. It is a sincere work that captures an artist’s determination with raw sensitivity.
The record will be available in all record stores starting March 12, 2025, and will be available exclusively for pre-sale starting March 5 on the official online store of DLiP RECORDS, “DLiPWebShop“.
