The Illistalive

Born and raised in Norfolk,VA The Illistalive is a concept I came up with after I realized I have infinite potential to make music while also making an impact on hip hop culture. Basically, I believe I'm talented enough to compete in the industry. My music is organic and unfiltered so that fans, and listeners, can forge a connection with me. My first album "Loner Life" is a testament to my hard work and determination because I wrote, recorded, produced, mixed, edited, copyrighted, and promote it all by myself, hence the name "Loner Life". I did it this way because it was a challenge, and overcoming challenges is something that we all can relate to. I envision my fans being some of the the most loyal fans in the world because I practice integrity, and give listeners satisfaction they want. I come from the bottom, started from nothing, and now I am The Illistalive.
