The Ill Relatives is a group that hails from the eerie swamps of Baton Rouge, LA. It consists of Verge, Ryal, Drack Muse and Kool DJ Supamike. The collective was formed in the bustling halls of Southern University Baton Rouge campus. Two of the members are from the state of Illinois while the other one is from Louisiana. Hence the term "Ill," the "IL" is for Illinois and the other "L" is for Louisiana. The group is best known for emphasizing their deep and intellectual lyrics that are fused with some true and traditional Hip Hop style of beats. Nevertheless, the group stayed humble and persistent and eventually released their full length debut album, Illustrations in 2001 on Nu Element Recordings. The production is managed by Gensu Dean and Drack Muse, along with Verge & Ryal producing a track each. Together, they team up to provide an eclectic composition of rhythms that are simply made but thoroughly engaging. A blend that is not only mellow but also very edgy and contemporary. The recipe for constructing the rhythms is of the golden days of Hip Hop, and it gives off a very refreshing vibe. Lyrically the album is also on point. The members are no slouch on the microphone and their verbal artistry is evident by their slick yet thought provoking rhymes. They take turns unleashing their various styles and their chemistry is certainly very commendable. Word play and technique are given the utmost attention so that the listener is immediately baited and hooked. The record closes out at a notable total of sixteen versatile tracks. Overall it's a very strong release by the group and one that can hold up against any premier release. Although this is another one of those hidden underground gems that are not easily located, it still has the power to challenge the mainstreams. In the end, it is up to the listener to discover the uncanny abilities of this solid work of art.

In late 2020 Headcount embarked on a project with one of the artists that helped found the label back in 2013. Ollie Bates (previously known as Illustrate) is now recording under the Be Kind alias as a multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter. To help build the foundations of this new artistic endeavor we delivered a 4 track campaign featuring ‘We Lose’, ‘Beyond The Woods’, ‘Cowbell’ and ‘A Final Toast’. Each track was recorded during the same psychedelic session in his new home city of Melbourne.www.instagram.com/be_kind_on_the_grind/

SIR SPITS (the Syllable Sultan) IS A YONKERS EMCEE & HIP HOP VETERAN THAT HAS BEEN SPITTIN AND RECORDING FOR OVER A DECADE. He is also founder and host of the critically acclaimed HIP HOP entity/movement/podcast/label called “The Dojo“, which collaborates and showcases the finest underground HIP HOP talent out there. SIR SPITS’ lyricism is top notch, easily delivering a cornucopia of flows, a plethora of syllables, mind-blowing metaphors, and nonstop word play that produce one substantial outcome: BARS.

SIR SPITS comes into his own as a solid lyricist who stares at every instrumental like an empty canvas and comes up with the proper brushstrokes to have his words and delivery fit smartly on any given track. I can’t overstate that; Think of some of your favorite lyricists over your lifetime, and seriously think about whether they cared about fitting their words artistically onto a track, not just patting themselves on the back for being clever using his raps as an instrument its a joy!

“I class myself as a Channeller instead of a rapper because when I write lyrics the words don't come from my mind; they come from my soul,” Vic explains. “The chapter is titled ‘Pain’ because the content in every song is dialogues that I can only have through music, it’s made up of my deepest thoughts.”

Flevans has been on a strong upward trajectory since his 2019 breakout album ‘Part Time Millionaire’ announced his arrival on Jalapeno Records from previous home Tru-Thoughts.

‘Biznizz’ grabs your attention from the word go with growly vocal samples, driving drums and huge synth stabs. It’s a deep and heavy groove that builds relentlessly and demands to be dropped to a full dance floor, sometime soon!

Don’t you think the rap scene became a very dark place with a lot of weird characters which have a asocial behaving and representing drugs, sex, and have a disrespectful way of treating women and marginalized groups? Thank god cause SAMBOSEN is not like that. This German rapper is focusing on Rap, the way of rhyming, flowing and is using beats - which doesn’t sound all the same!
