From last.fm:
Founded by national slam poet/coffeehouse haunt Toussaint Morrison, The Blend is a five-piece concoction of working-class ruffians who infuse hip-hop with jazz, rock with Bach, and politics with pleasure.

The collaboration between the two has already generated this past year’s #1 Album on RapReviews. Read more on Last.fm
