Summary

As the site's first and only 9-time Champion, 5 in audio and 4 in text, there's no question that Bleu deserves to be the first 2x Hall of Famer for both Audio & Text. His takeover didn't happen overnight though, while he originally registered an account in January 07' Bleu didn't come into the scene until March 08', with his now self-requested deleted account. He was active but didn't step onto the tournament stage until 2014 and since then he's been a nearly unstoppable force. He's the most decorated audio champion at 5 championships, tied for 2nd in text championships and has also had the most tournament final appearances overall at 13, 7 in audio and 6 in text. As of now there's not much content to show for it but that doesn't mean there isn't quality, he put in the work to get there leaving with an an impressive record of 277/22 Audio & 131/14 Text right before his account deletion in 2016. With all this it's not hard to see why he's considered one of the greatest emcees of all-time and statistically he is.

Known Multi Accounts & Aliases

Bleu's gone by a few names in his time on LB, most notably: Thorough & Indica.


Crew Affiliations

He's mostly stayed crewless but he's had a few stints in notable crews such as:
Lethal Dosez (Leader)
Monsters Inc (Leader)
Turnbull AC's (Leader)
Legion of Doom (Leader)


Most Acclaimed Victories

Since he deleted his original account it's hard to trace back old battles but he's had notable wins against the top emcees this site has produced, names such as: M-Rock, SIXX-SHOT, GOOD GRIEF, ILLoKWENT, Subreal, remarK, Rican, etc.
Bleu vs. Esso
Bleu vs. Celsius
Bleu vs. Miami (LEFT FIELD)
Bleu vs. YC
Bleu vs. Lockhart
Bleu vs. Moni
Bleu (& Aggo) vs. Row (& Rai)
Bleu vs. Lockhart
Bleu vs. UhhMAZING


Site Impact

Not only is he one of the best, Bleu has also been instrumental behind the scenes as a longtime staff member, whether it's helping his fellow battlers or speaking openly about changes the site needs to see, he's always pushed towards progress. As a former FVC King and member Bleu has also helped the site immensely with invaluable feedback on thousands of battles, something he still does to this day. In terms of battling he's in a class all on his own, there's Bleu, UNKNOWN ARTIST, Lockhart and then there's everyone else.


LetsBeef Speaks

"Truthfully I didn't always get along with Bleu, before the multiple championships I just couldn't stand him, but as the years have gone by either I've gone soft in my old age or my ego has deflated because if there was ever anyone who could say they're the best it would be Bleu, but he doesn't, he didn't ask to be a multiple champion or even a staff member it just sorta happened by him battling and putting in work and throughout it all I've seen nothing but good things come from him. He's the chillest Hall of Famer we've had and truly that's what you want to see. Bleu leaves the "drama" and shit talking to others while he crafts bars and just DESTROY folks. He's the best we've seen so far and he's still battling, congratulations Bleu, I'm anxious to see what you'll do next." - Student


"Though the term goat is highly over used these days...who can argue that Bleu isnt the true GOAT of LB? Sheer skill in every aspect of battle rap from delivery to punchlines. I doubt his overall rank points (updated version) will ever be matched in this lifetime. Congrats, couple years over due!" - Celsius


"I think Bleu has rightfully earned his spot among the greatest to ever battle on the site. I think he has the most tourney wins ever, or is at least in the running for it. He has helped on the staff side and generally has the sights best interest in mind, and hes a presence in the forums. I got to get a look into how he operates when we won the tag tourney together. We shared a Google doc and I was able to kind of see his thought process as he crafts a bar. The speed and efficiency that he has from thinking up a concept to execution and revision made me realize where he was at. I had to work way harder than him. People like to discredit me and say he carried me to the title. While I agree he was the stronger writer of the two of us, I'm not sure him and a stand in could have pulled it off. We worked really well together. Bleu let me do my thing and when it was a bit rushed (one of my huge faults) he called me on it and made me hone my bars till they were to a winning standard. My bar about Dys' dad was the same concept from the start, but it wasn't concise and punchy at first. Bleu didn't tell me how to fix it, just said it wasn't there yet. I worked and reworked it and eventually it became what many people consider not only the bar of the tourney, but the best bar of my career. So Bleu is that dude. He helped me improve just by proxy and giving me my space to improve. I'll always respect him for that. He's a HOFer for his stats alone, but to me a closer understanding of the dude really makes it concrete." - Aggo
