TRUE SPIT


Many can hail from the gritty streets of any urban sprawl and proclaim that they are the next best.  Usually what comes next is them falling short from that proclamation.  I can't say the same for Boy Illinois.  Thee Chicago Native (with "refugee" blood-ties to Haiti) scribbles for you an in-depth/intimate picture that relies heavily on lyrical wisdom, experience and above average production(The Baron Boys -Nipsey Hussel, Drake, Bow Wow).  On Inhale Pt. 3 The Trailer, "Illi"(abbr.) invites you into his process, and discuss with the viewer his uncommon approach to going about making it, not accepting society handouts and moving away from a content mind-set.
 Always a pleasure to hear conscious minded lyrics that hold weight, i'd say you can finally tuck away the garbage of guns, goons and guap(hahahahaha).  Illi has been featured on DJBooth.net, GoWhereHipHop.com and was the first user-submitted artist featured on GetRight Music, DankLA and Smoking Section.  Lend this cat your ears and I assure you will be nodding your head with approval, peace.
