[edit] Recording history

Blue Sky Black Death made their debut on Mush Records in 2006, with the release of their double-disc debut album A Heap of Broken Images. The first disc featured twelve instrumental tracks, while the second disc featured a number of guests rapping over their production, which included Jus Allah (formerly of Jedi Mind Tricks), Sabac Red (formerly of Non Phixion), Wise Intelligent (of Poor Righteous Teachers), A-Plus and Pep Love (of Hieroglyphics), Chief Kamachi (of Army of the Pharaohs), Mikah 9 (formerly of Freestyle Fellowship), Virtuoso (formerly of Army of the Pharaohs), Awol One and Holocaust. The album's acclaimed production led to the duo landing a record deal with popular independent rap label Babygrande Records. The chemistry felt on their track with Holocaust, a West Coast Wu-Tang Clan affiliate, led to a full-length collaboration album between BSBD and the rapper. On September 5, 2006, Babygrande released the duo's second album Blue Sky Black Death presents: The Holocaust. Holocaust provided all vocals on the album, while BSBD provided all production. The album featured the single "The Ocean" b/w "No Image".
