SIC ILL in WEEKLY VOLCANO NEWSPAPER
http://www.weeklyvolcano.com/music/columns/2012/01/Sic-III-of-Darxiide-releases-solo-hip-hop-album-epidemic/

Think back to 2010. Darxiide was perhaps the biggest underground local hip-hop crew making street music.

But in 2011, Darxiide was noticeably absent from the scene. They took the year off to regroup and slim down their roster. The head of Darxiide has always been and still is Sic Ill. Like Wu Tang, when Darxiide form like Voltron, he's the head. He gets Darxiide together to record. He produces lots of their tracks. He designs the graphics, films the videos, runs the monstrous Internet marketing machine and (oh by the way) MCs.

Well, we've been waiting a whole year to say this, but Darxiide is back. Sic just released a solo LP, Epidemic. It's a follow up to his 2009 album, Pandemic. The album is available for free download at sicill.bandcamp.com. The album features fellow Darxiide MCs Shame, Nick Dominguez and 211, with other guest verses supplied by Moe Greenz, Ese Cricket, A.R. Mastermind, Doughkain, Leezy Soprano and even myself.

There are two types of Darxiide tracks on this album. About half the songs are spacey, looped-out, stripped-down street bangers. The other half of the record consists of more typical boom-bap hip-hop beats. Darxiide covers all bases with this formula.

The crew has a following of young hip-hop fans that has grown to love Darxiide's unique, drawled-out, almost syrup-induced haziness. The rest of the listeners can appreciate their young up-and-coming vocals chosen over more classic beats.

Sic Ill's Productive November - Tacoma Hip-Hop Music | Examiner.com http://www.examiner.com/hip-hop-music-in-tacoma/sic-ill-s-productive-november#ixzz1VXFabJ8o

Sic Ill of Tacoma's Darxiide has had an incredibly active and successful month this November with multiple opportunities to direct music videos and a collaboration request from Miami's Brisco and Tacoma's Factor. JuiceRadio, an online hip hop and R&B radio station debuted Darxiide artist Dru Breeze's aka (Santana Reid) Fly Alone at the end of October during their Fresh Juice hour.  This is the first single off of his upcoming mixtape, Smoke Signals.  The song, set to the background of Wiz Khalifa's "Black and Yellow", already has a music video directed by Sic Ill.  The video has had almost 700 views and very positive comments such as Shamiotzi253's "Hard video. That's what's up!" Also directed by Sic Ill the first part of November, Seattle's Weaz Huitzilopochtli of the band, First Family, debuted his music video for his single, "Number One".  The video has received almost 500 views with viewer Cat Jeter's review, "Smooth! Nice homegrown effect".  Throughout November, Sic Ill has been a prolific director, also directing Darxiide artist Tvicious' Streets of Rage featuring Nick Dominguez. Toward the end of November, Sic Ill released his 12th mixtape, Pandemic including such tracks as "This is the Soul", "Gotta Make my Money", and "Northwest Gray".  The mixtape features Mo Greenz, Dru Breeze, Nick Dominguez, E Pruitt, Shame, Whikid Matticuless, Skrilla, DoughBoi, Savi Suazi, and Hypo.  Overall, Sic Ill has 8 unreleased CDs and 13 mixtapes, not including his work with Darxiide. And, finally, Sic Ill and Tacoma's Bassrock artist and CEO of Dirty Gates Entertainment, Factor, were invited to Miami to provide behind the scenes footage and photography for Factor's "Champion".  The song, first recorded in Tacoma, features Brian Angel  of Day26, Brisco of Cash Money and Young Money, and Frontline Entertainment's Maddteck and was recorded in Source Magazine's Benzino's recording studio.  Sic Ill reports that he was honored to provide his talent to the project and found the whole experience an opportunity to be mentored by artists who have been in the industry much longer than he has.   Sic Ill explains, "[The] best advice they told me was to watch the really good music videos on BET [and] MTV and take notes on what they do, make sure I have good lighting, etc". Sic Ill, along with rapping with Darxiide, lends his talent as a graphic designer, photographer, videographer, and promoter.

SIC ILL in (TACOMA WEEKLY VOLCANO)

This year, 2010, was a busy year for Tacoma hip-hop music. Many different individual artists and groups released and promoted good music and built their fanbases. However, there was no clear-cut top artist, and therefore I didn't feel compelled to spout 500 words of my own opinion about who had the best 2010. (CLICK HERE for more...)
