Blueprint Live at Revolver Records

BLUEPRINT VESSEL ALBUM AND TOUR

In 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 friends were happy with the introspective and uplifting songs that marked his return to the game the shortness of the project left them wanting a full length album.

On July 29th, 2025 those fans got 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 will kick off the release of Vesse/ 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.

"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 will be released July 29th on Weightless Recordings.
