BLUEPRINT VESSEL ALBUM AND TOURIn 2024, when underground hip-hop pioneer Blueprint (Rhymesayers/Weightless) released his
five-song Falling Down EP, it marked the end of a six year absence from releasing music. And
while his core fans were happy with the introspective and uplifting songs that marked his return
to the game, the shortness of the project also left them wanting a proper full-length album.
On July 29th, 2025 those fans will be finally getting that, as Blueprint announced the release of
his ninth solo album, Vessel.
Originally slated as the follow-up to his 2018 album Two-Headed Monster, Vessel’s initial 2020
release was shuttered first due to the covid pandemic and later due to Blueprint’s subsequent
disappearance from the music industry. This was quite a blow to someone who had been a
full-time artist for twenty years leading up to that point. Blueprint recalls,
“Once the covid
lockdowns happened and shut down every music venue and pretty much the entire music
industry, I had no choice but to postpone the release of Vessel. Since there was no way to
make money for a couple of years, I decided to just get a regular job for a while and take some
time away from the music industry.
”
The year 2025 will not only mark Blueprint’s return to releasing full-length albums, it will also
mark his release to doing nationwide tours. He kicked off the release of Vessel with album
release shows on August 1st in Dayton, Ohio and August 2nd in Columbus, Ohio before
heading out for a 40-city tour across the United States and Canada. Accompanying him on his
headlining tour will be DJ Detox from Columbus, OH.
The Cincinnati stop of the tour is Saturday, October 4th at Oddfellows Liquor Bar 2014 Elm St. Cincinnati, OH. He will be joined by Cincinnati legends The Animal Crackers, Sons of Silverton w/Dj Rare Groove, ¡JayHill!, and AP Counterfeit. The show is $10 & 21+. Doors at 8pm, music at 9pm. Tickets available at: Cincyticket.com/blueprint.
“I’m just excited to be out there again, sharing my music with the people. When I was away
from music, I wasn’t sure if this opportunity would ever come around again. So, I’m just
thankful.
” Known for his uplifting anthems like “Persevere” and “Don’t Look Back,
” Vessel is one
of Blueprint’s most personal and uplifting albums to date.
Vessel was released July 29th on Weightless Recordings.
