Born and raised in Detroit Michigan, ILLITE was inspired to rhyme
around the 1994-95 era. Playing around writing verses here and there
but he really didn't start taking it seriously until around 2000-2001
when he got his start under Onebelo's Subterraneous Records. He made
his debut on Subterraneous' "WATERWORLD TOO" album released in 2001.
As apart of the SUB Crew he would become a more seasoned
artist/performer. Doing shows from within the Metro Detroit area to
Seattle, Minneapolis, Wisconsin, Chicago opening up for the likes of
De la Soul, Mos Def, Jurassic 5, Slum Village, Redman and others.
In 2006, he got with his partner DJ Phrikshun aka Octane to put
together the "FORGOTTEN CHOSEN" project easing into the spotlight a
little more. The duo made a name for themselves around Michigan for
having a live show and incredible chemistry.
Fast forward to 2008, ILLITE felt it was time to put forth a solo
effort, Creme' de la Creme'. "I chose that title because throughout
the years I've always felt like I was on a journey, trying to figure
out exactly what I want out of life and out of the music I create. In
the end I would say I want the best, who doesn't? Why settle for less?
Make the best music I can make and live life the best way I see fit,
hence "Creme' de la Creme', 'Cream of the Crop' or 'Best of the
Best'."
The Future
"I'm leaving it in GOD's hands. It took me 20+ years to get to this
point. I work off inspiration and when or however it hits me, I just
feed off that."
