Off the Grid Tracklist
Off The Grid is Aussie hip-hop trio Bliss n Eso’s sixth studio album, released on Friday April 28, 2017.
The release schedule for this album was not as smooth as their previous albums, having being delayed from March 10, 2017 due to the tragic death of one of their actors during the filming of the music video for “Friend Like You”.
The tracklist for Off The Grid was revealed on March 27. The album has 15 tracks, four of which were released early as singles: “Dopamine”, “Friend Like You”, “Moments”, and “Blue”. The release of “Friend Like You” sparked interest in critics, and an article on allaussie hip hop included the following:
Many music critics hailed it as a more progressive and mature sound, signalling the beginning of a new chapter for Bliss n Eso.
The same article continued on to say:
Continuing the themes of positive thinking and self-belief that have followed their career, the first two singles from Off the Grid reinforce that this truly is the beginning of an exciting new era for Bliss n Eso.
