In a world where high-tech networking is seen as crucial to success, it’s refreshing to hear that street musicians still have hope of taking their game to the next level. One recent example of a busker who made it big is UK native Bluey Robinson; having made a name for himself singing in the subways of London and New York (as well via onlookers’ YouTube videos of his performances), he’s preparing for the September (overseas) release of his currently-untitled debut album. On this new remix of lead single I Know, Robinson is joined by a certain musical jack-of-all-trades—Ryan Leslie sounds as smooth as ever on his rapped guest verse, but the real highlight is his beat, which features a sample from Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five’s The Message (also famously used by Puff Daddy and Mase on Can’t Nobody Hold Me Down). Although this version of the record won’t be appearing on Bluey’s full-length, it’s the perfect introduction to an artist we’ll likely be hearing much more from in the near future.

R Les is the highlight here, but Bluey holds it down! Haven't heard the original, but I love the flow on this solid production. Sidenote - Ryan Leslie is the new Pharrell! Bold statement, I know, but have you guys heard the material for his latest LP?? Damn....straight consistency.

I will NEVER get sick of that sample... ever. Welcome to the Booth, Bluey - I have a feeling this won't be your last feature here.
As for Mr. Leslie... you all know how I feel about this unbelievably talented individual. |

RL is a beast but... i admit Pharrell needs to pick up pace. This song is decent. The sample took me off guard tho! |

Production was great on this (@joshL - I feel you man, these productions are sick). RL has really come on recently. Bluey was impressive too. Gotta give this one a 4.

This is dope. That song is too classic. You can't ruin it, and they didn't. Bluey is pretty dope on here. Good intro to the booth.

Ok so you got the ICE CUBE It was a good day polyphonic/b.g.... Song is boring, not something to bump too.. makes me think of someone that's in a hospital struggling to survive, song is wack. Sorry, I keep it real!

One of my favourite producers, and one of my favourite artists right now.
Bluey representing the UK really well and his vocals are top class. Leslie comes with the solid, catchy production, but do prefer the version I heard with an added sound, gave it more of a melodic feel. Overall, Banger |

Seems like everything RLES touches turns to gold, at least in my world. It should be in the real world too.
