Razah's Ladder is a collaborative studio album by the American hip hop production duo Blue Sky Black Death and the American rapper Hell Razah. It was released by Babygrande Records in 2007.

Production

The album title refers to the Bible story of Jacob's Ladder. Razah said the album "reps me escalating in my career", and would lead-in to his following solo project, titled Heaven Razah. After the recent death of his father, Razah decided to take the album in a deeper, spiritual direction.[1] Blue Sky Black Death said that the album's production was not as dark or as sinister as the production on their previous project with the Wu-Tang affiliate Holocaust, calling it an "uplifting album" with more soulful beats requested by Razah.[2]

Release

Blue Sky Black Death said that there would be no singles released from the album, calling them "obsolete" for underground artists. Instead the entire project was released on vinyl as well as CD.[2]
