ÈMINENCE GRISE by THA ILL SAINT
"Èminence Grise is the latest release from The Overlord of The Underground, Spectre Tha Ill Saint, who has been terrorizing your subconcious for the last 25 years and counting. Starting with The Illness in 1995, Tha ILL Saint has been experimenting with the parameters of time and space, alchemy and mathematics, and manipulating the very fabric of reality through the vibrations of sound (especially Ultra Low End frequencies). Experience, once again, as he takes you on a journey into the dark seas of perception and opens your eyes to the truth!"
(SKZa)
"Back in the 1990s and into the 2000s, WordSound Recordings don Skiz Fernando Jr. donned a handful of monikers as pseudonymous cover for his musical endeavors. One of these was Tha Ill Saint, specifically credited with production for a number of releases by the uniquely underrated rapper Sensational. After years of relative dormancy, this surprise EP brings back the illbient spectre of those dope days. Immersive and bleak, the instrumental hip-hop dystopia of “Plague Of Ignorance” and “Supernatural Forces” grips likes gloved hands clasping a neck from behind, an ideal soundtrack to a pandemic-addled New York City made more uncertain and eerie empty after-hours. With Scotty Hard in his orbit, he remains a master of dub darkness."
