Chef Bogey has spent years building Boston records around a small, returning circle, and Kil the Chef shows that circle at work. BLUEHILLBILL appears twice on the album, on "Buried in Roxbury" and "Meal Prep," and Dun Dealy joins on "Kil or Be Killed." All three guests and the album's two credited artists had already crossed paths on Bogey's earlier BLUEHILLBLUES project with BLUEHILLBILL, where Kil The Artist guested on "H & M" and Dun Dealy on "Bluehill Zings." Kil the Chef is an 11 track album of about thirty minutes, released as a joint Chef Bogey and Kil The Artist project, with cassette and CD editions issued alongside the digital release. Bogey describes himself as a hip hop producer from Boston. His start in the local scene in 2010 came as host of SharkTank Battlegrounds and of a radio show called RawTime Radio, and his production credits include Dun Dealy, Estee Nack, Primo Profit, Big Dese and Oak Lonetree. Kil The Artist arrives with a catalogue of his own that has grown quickly in recent years, from Side B in 2023 and Beast in 2024 to Bleu Magic and Champainful: Toast to Bad Times in 2025, followed by Angels with Filthy Souls and KILTECH in 2026. Seen against that run, Kil the Chef pairs a rapper who releases at a steady pace with a producer whose network is rooted in Boston, and the guest list is the clearest sign of how long those lines have been connected.
