Central Pennsylvania is more known for it's delicious Hershey chocolate than its hip hop scene, or at least it was. Emerging with a razor sharp intellect and raw sense of life's woes, windchILL of Harrisburg hip hop heros, Artists Over Industry, is blazing a trail on the local, regional & international music scene. 2007 marked the beginning of a new path with windchILL's official solo debut, "I Have Arrived", released on indie label STLP.
Beginning his journey into hip hop in the year 1996, windchILL has been writing and recording songs creating a buzz that has expanded far beyond the wide open Pennsylvania corn fields and the over crowded city streets. From four track demos to commercial releases, he is no amateur in a game flooded with fakes. A respected freestyler in local ciphers, windchILL is no stranger to the cut throat business that surrounds the hip hop genre. Armed with an independent attitude, windchILL has taken an active role in the creation of his music, from the infant writing stages to the finished product released to the public, this is the tie that binds every project together.
Following the release of windchILL's, "I Have Arrived", the album was met with accepting arms and garnered much success, critically and with units moved all over the world. In March, 2008, Central Pennsylvania hosted the second annual "Central PA Hip Hop Awards", in which "I Have Arrived" took home the coveted Album of the Year Award. This accomplishment added validation to windchILL's diligent work as an artist pushing boundaries creatively further proving he is indeed a force to be reckoned with on the mic.
With influences from hip hop's golden era such as The Artifacts, A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul and Black Moon. windchILL is on a mission to bring back the raw truth lyricism without dismissing heartfelt connections to his listeners, the whole time pushing and elevating the art form forward into the future. A seasoned performer with an unmatched intensity level, windchILL has toured and shared stages with artists spanning up and down the east coast and as west as Ohio. Rocking stages with national recording artists such as KRS-ONE, Method Man, The Pharcyde, Inspectah Deck, Heiroglyphics, Louis Logic, Reef the Lost Cauze, Mr. Complex, Insight, The Procussions and more, windchILL's accomplishments in the area have gained him both commercial and critical success. Further more windchILL is respected by his peers, and recognized as one of the pioneers of hip hop muisc in the Central Pennsylvania area. Although he is not the first, he has def played a major role in the development of the hip hop scene in and around Central PA.
windchILL is an emcee with ambitions to bring real hip hop back to the forefront of a genre that has become more of a mockery than an art form. His real life attitude reflects on both the stage and in the studio. With a firm grip on the everyday struggle and a microphone to manifest his cause, windchILL is set to release his new album "Self Medication" in November of 2009. It features production from all over the world including Switzerland, Italy, Romania, Canada, United States and more.
