Wsup knishes?! The Sleaze Monster been hibernating extra hard through this extended wintry weather VA been drowned in. But alas, just like you cant stop the Sun from shining, you can't stop the seasons from turning. Consistency. This episode of the segment everybody loves to hate features RVA stalwart Og Illa (formerly So !lla - dont forget the exclamation point.). The Broad Street Elite frontman been repping his brand of weed-laced music for years in the city. I've witnessed Illa come a long way, and I even gave him opportunities to shine when I was doing that little promotion thang. Dude zoomed past that and got his own situation in a historic RVA venue but I aint gone get into all that.
Back with his latest offering Marijuana Made OG Illa making it known what he feels is his status in this Richmond music scene. I know dude would say it's a global outlook but I holds it down for what's going on in the city. No disrespect to other spitters outside the radius...DJ Gringo holds down the production on the entirety of the project. Flame there, so I'm excited to hear what Illa has for Gringo's Southern-influenced bounce.
As usual, listen in to Black Liquid's show Hip-Hop For The Rest Of Us on WRIR 97.3 FM, or stream the show from wrir.org and blackliq.com. Tune in Saturday night at 1 am to catch my views. But don't wait around for how I feel to form an opinion; drop off your thoughts in the comments!
