Most hip-hop artists would kill simply to have Illus’ extensive catalog of albums and long list of impressive guests features, which include Blueprint, Apathy and Homeboy Sandman. For the veteran emcee, however, it’s only half of his story, as he’s also an accomplished comic book artist, having worked for Marvel, and he routinely turns his vinyl singles into unique pieces of artwork.

With songs that focus on everything from fatherhood, to finding superheroes in real life, Illus is currently working with HiPNOTT records on the follow up to his 2016 album, A Perfectly Imperfect Beautiful Naked Creation.

When it comes to his other artistic side, Illus recently completed a successful Kickstarter campaign for a youth oriented graphic novel titled Punk Taco.
