Ta'Raach

Ta'Raach (sometimes stylized as Ta'Raach or L*Roc) is a Detroit-bred producer, emcee, and visual artist who's been shaping underground hip-hop's left-field since the late '90s. Known for his off-kilter beats that blend jazz samples, dusty grooves, and psychedelic textures, he gained early recognition through collaborations with J Dilla and his work with the avant-garde collective Lab Technicians. As both a rapper and beatmaker, Ta'Raach’s style feels like a surreal trip through crate-digger soul, delivered with a conversational flow that’s equal parts philosophical and playful.

Beyond music, he’s a multidisciplinary creative – designing his own album art and maintaining a DIY ethos across projects like *In My Wurld* and *The Fevers*. Recent releases like *Thank You* and *Ainda Xhe 8th* show him refining his signature blend of abstract lyricism and warm, sample-based production, while staying rooted in Detroit’s legacy of musical innovation. Whether through solo work or collaborations, Ta'Raach keeps pushing boundaries without losing that basement-show intimacy.
