| Rumors have it that a little known emcee by the name of Blu was becoming increasingly impatient with Sound In Color, the label responsible for releasing Below the Heavens with Exile, which had a single out almost a year and a half before the drop date. As the politics of what was happening behind the scenes still remain a mystery, after much delay the Blu & Exile album arrived to sea of critical acclaim and was one of the most talked about hip hop releases of 2007! But in the time it took for all of that to finally come together, Blu was already seeking out another label with an all new project, a collaboration with Detroit mc/producer Ta'Raach! C.R.A.C Knuckles is the first in what we hope will be a long line of many more releases to come. Met with positive reviews despite mixed reactions from fans of Below The Heavens, Collect Respect Anna Check is an experimental album that further explores the Blu's range as an emcee and why Ta'Raach is one of Detroit's most sought after producers.
