Ill Conscious

Though not a time-traveler you could easily believe that Baltimore emcee Ill Conscious just arrived from the golden age of hip hop in a DeLorean. Da God comes equipped with a jazzy tone and a mastery of a multi-syllabic flow chock full of life-science, first-hand street experience as well as gems derived from 5% Teachings and Biblical scripture. In other words, to a global audience of underground heads he is 100% the truth!

Ill Conscious dropped his first solo release The Essence in 2016. By the time of his 2018 offering The Prerequisite he was squad-ed up with like-minded and equally legit B-More brethren Dirt Platoon and Guy Grams.

A European Tour in 2018 with this line-up also took time to record an EP while in Paris that was released as Parimore the following year. In 2018 he also released the Sorcery EP with Portuguese producer MZ Boom Bap. With the amalgamation of elevated instrumentals and anthemic bars, Sorcery has garnered over two million streams so far and propelled the demand for his successful South American tour in 2019.

Most recently in 2022, the emcee released his long simmering LP, Acres Of Diamonds. With press and fan response favorable across the board, Ill Conscious and Snook Da Crook (Dirt Platoon) did their first post-pandemic tour in Europe this past summer. Fourteen shows across three countries, this recent jaunt climaxed with an appearance on a festival stage in Germany supporting legends of that scene Toni-L and MC Torch.
