Known for his raucous and party-starting bangers, iLL Chris keeps the mayhem going with new single “Gravel,” which features rowdy appearances from frequent collaborators RudeAssMogli and Nate G.

These three Seattle rappers are well-versed in the art of wylin’—peep Chris performing “Pull Up” with Mogli—and they’re clearly not about to slow down. At least, that’s the mantra driven home by Chris, who likens his constant grind to the check on his Nikes before passing the mic to the always-wild Mogli.

Spitting through a vocal effect, he handles the hook and second verse like a man possessed, perhaps catching the holy spirit from the beat supplied Metro Boomin and Banks (of 808 Mafia). The same can be said for Nate, whose bars are hilariously disrespectful. In addition to being all up in your girl’s call log, he makes it clear that he knows how to make your mama cry.

Like previous singles “Pull Up,” “Numbers,” and “Eurostep,” you’ll be able to find “Gravel” on Chris’ much anticipated new album, Honor Thy Father.

“Gravel” is now available for stream and download through all major streaming portals and digital retailers. Stay tuned for the release of Honor Thy Father which is set to drop towards the end of the summer, courtesy of EMPIRE Distribution.

After learning earlier today that Manu Ginobili’s been sidelined for a month, due to a knee-to-the-groin injury that took place in Wednesday’s win against the Pelicans, I first thought this might have been a fan made ‘get well’ dedication track. On the contrary, after hitting the play button, “Eurostep” doesn’t show any signs of amateur struggle-rap hoop fandom. Instead, we find Seattle’s iLL Chris and Mackned dumbing out over this Young Forever produced banger, “Eurostep.” Coined after the flashy dribbling fake mastered by Ginobili, the moral here is that if anyone crosses your path on some funny style flim-flam, you hit ‘em with the Euro step, and keep it movin’.

Although I don’t think that Chris was privy’d to Manu’s forthcoming injury, with his timing, I’m suddenly curious to know his pick for this Sunday’s Super Bowl. Hit that play button, and hit ‘em with the “Eurostep.” Swag.

After finishing 2015 strong with the Black Key Cartel produced heater, “Pull Up,” Seattle’s iLL Chris starts the new year on the good foot with “Look At My Stats.” Produced by Young Forever, who concocts a spellbinding trap banger, laced with a barrage of quotables from the former ‘King of Seattle’ battle champ. However, don’t take my word for it, just take a look at his catalog, and peep the scars from his battle log.

Both “Pull Up” and “Look At My Stats” can be found on iLL Chris’ forthcoming project, Honor Thy Father. Stay tuned!

“Time Of Your Life” is the newest drop off iLL Chris‘ new 8-track EP, Sensei. For the single, iLL Chris has enlisted Jet Life crew member and frequent collaborator, Sir Michael Rocks and Seattle rapper Bryce Bowden who lay down punchy verses over the peppered beat. You can download his new EP Sensei for the free free, which is fully influenced by great martial artists and Buddhist theologies. Definitely worth a download.
