Tracey Stevens, better known as Blue Flame Hughes, has lived a life that shaped his artistry into something raw, nomadic, and deeply personal. Born in Galveston, raised across different places, with Beaumont as his first true home and San Antonio as the ground where he became a man, Hughes carries his journey in every word he raps. “Home is where the heart is,” he says, and for him, that means “from the Bo to SA.”
Now, Blue Flame Hughes is gearing up to release his next project, Infinity and Beyond, set to drop on November 8 across all platforms. It follows his most recent EP, The 811 Theory, which was released May 3. Produced by JoddyeintheMixx, this album is more than just music—it’s a message for the kids and young dreamers who feel voiceless or lost. “The storm is always temporary. Even the worst flood only lasted 40 days,” Hughes reflects. “Dig deeper, see yourself, be yourself, and trust the timing of the universe.” His words carry the weight of someone who has faced challenges but chooses faith, light, and perseverance.
For Hughes, fatherhood and life itself are part of the lessons fueling his craft. “I’m blessed and highly favored,” he says, crediting God and his own determination for bringing him this far. Infinity and Beyond promises to embody that spirit of resilience, urging listeners to believe in themselves just as he believes in them.
Stylistically, Hughes calls himself “a hybrid of Wale, Cole, Dot, fused with Drake, Mac Miller, and Tory Lanez.” His versatility keeps him fluid across flows and cadences, unafraid to step into new lanes while staying rooted in lyricism. He has already collaborated with heavyweights like Lil Wayne, Boosie, and Chris Brown, with a Tory Lanez feature on the way. Next on his list: Drake, J. Cole, and Kendrick Lamar—artists he dreams of sparring with lyrically. On the R&B side, Brent Faiyaz, Bruno Mars, and even the late Whitney Houston top his wish list.
With Infinity and Beyond, Hughes isn’t just aiming to drop another project—he’s building a legacy of truth, perseverance, and creativity without boundaries.
