I met Illastrate earlier this year at the Red Bull Music Academy and he gave me his Dirty Drum Mixtape. Immediately, it seemed, once I returned home I incessantly heard his name. First, on the critically acclaimed Black Noise LP, then with ATL native and BLS favorite Senor Kaos, on Dynas’ upcoming The Apartment, most recently with Small Eyez feat Jaspects and finally this piece he has done by himself.Allow me to present the first in a new series, While They’re Still Here that he’s doing, dedicated to the Living Legends of our time; first up Anita Baker.
We should definitely recognize them while they’re still here. R.I.P. DJ AM
