Meet ILL Camp, a 10-member hip hop collective based in Lancaster, SC. The group has quite a collection of albums under their belt. More info on their the ILL Camp blog. Parental Advisory: Explicit Lyrics._________________
Who is ILL Camp? RIGID, SLAM, Main Man, Walt Mass, Kompleet Trackz, Nasty Knowledge, Loose Cannon, DJ Serious, Avalanche and P.
Who does what? We all write our own music. RIGID produces and emcees, Kompleet Tracks is our second-in-command producer and DJ Serious is the hype man that keeps us ready to rip the booth or the stage... Serious was also the DJ at The Chatterbox (Good Time Charlie's) a few years ago.
Describe your style: Our style is simply official hip-hop music, we don't follow gimmicks or mimic anyone else. Sure, we've been influenced by other artists, but we stay true to ourselves and our music reflects originality and love for the art and craft. We know why we do this and it's not for fame. We do this because we love hip-hop. It's obvious that a lot of other artists don't respect the music because if they did, they wouldn't lie to people through their songs and promote false images.
What's the history of ILL Camp? ILL Camp was formed in 2000 by RIGID, SLAM, Loose Cannon, and DJ Serious. RIGID bought a Playstation game that enabled him to produce beats and from there it was pretty much on (laughs). We would rhyme to the instrumentals he'd made until we had tapes after tapes completed.
