Born and raised in what is considered the greatest city on earth, and home to some of the most renowned names in hip hop, aspirering artist and producer Skila is set to make waves in the seemingly stalling industry of rap. Started rhyming at the age of 18 with influences such as Kool G rap, Rakim, as well as Biggie and Tupac, Skila has applied his ever growing talent to help promote what hip hop seems to lack these days - a step up. One of the founders of Insomniac Dream Entertainment, Skila is featured on Hello from tha Gutta vol 1 and 2, Brown Bag Blendz vol 1 with versus and production. He has also done production for Spanish artist G. Cardona's album "En La Lucha", IDEs artist Sinnagi's EP "Pull the Plug",and Creature's "Never Say Die". Due out this year is Skilaâ„s debuting album Audio Narcotics: Love, Hate, Music, and Addiction, with fellow production by Fred Onez, Mr. Data, Reno, Alkatraz, Incredible O, and himself (Skila). Expressive and opinionated, this album keeps you riveted with its unique production and Lyrics to keep your synopsis firing. This is an artist you'll want to keep an ear out for.
