Revalation & GoD iLLa - RevILLutionAries


"RevILLutionAries" not only signifies a play on their respective aliases "Rev" & "ILLA," but also as the concept of the album which focuses on inspiring a stagnant society through a barrage of in your face rhymes and eclectic beatscapes. The tracks range from inspirational anthems such as "Dreamchaser" which shows the duo's versatility to "Keeping On ft. Kore (of EMS)" which touches on social issues & personal strife.

But the crew makes sure to feed their niche fanbase with braggadocio & punchline driven tunes such as "I Been ft. M-Dot" and "A Game" ft Mayhem (of EMS). Other highlights include "Sound of Love ft. Lou Sixx" which finds them sharing their personal vices for dealing with life's daily hardships and the riveting "Dope City," which takes the perspective of two addicts and paints a picture on the difficulties of fighting addiction. Overall the album is powerful & uplifting, carrying that feeling throughout as the emcees flex their lyrical muscle while also trying to inspire and give people hope in a troubling time when that's all some people need
