I've been seeing this pop up on a lot of year-end lists and hadn't heard shit about it, so I dug it up and am loving it. Anybody else heard it?

i remember kinda liking it from hearing the tracks on their myspace but is it that different from a million other nice/earnest underground albums?

i remember thinking this sounded kinda generic
talented dude but not enough personality

Nah. The more you listen to it, the more impressive it becomes. His personality is starting to become more developed in a lot of the solo stuff he's been releasing through myspace.

But between Below the Heavens, The Piece Talks (as C.R.A.C. w/ Taraach) and Johnson & Jonson w/ Mainframe, Blu's demonstrated massive amounts of talent, flexibility and quotables. Pretty much anything he toouches turns golden.
