On May 29th, Adam Wallenta aka Illus will be releasing Family First. A project (that’s explained below) that’s treading new ground as each emcee featured is also the producer of the track they appear on. Guest include Blueprint (check a preview of their cut above), J-Live (which can be seen/heard after the jump), Apathy, Esoteric, Chuuwee, Ill Bill and more.
2012 promises to be a memorable year for Illus, as he and his wife recently welcomed the birth of their first child and his new project, Family First, (due to be released on 5-29-2012) focuses on the shared love of that experience to create 12-tracks that mend meaningful, powerful, heart-felt lyrics to hardcore Hip-Hop production. Family First is a celebration of family and life both in the literal sense and that of the larger global Hip-Hop community and the connection we all have through our children and the spirit, heart, passion and soul of the culture.
Pre-orders available now on iTunes, UGHH and Kickstarter.
