Emerging from the vibrant streets of Phoenix, Arizona, CHAZ iLL is rapidly carving out a unique space in the hip hop landscape. With eight years in the music industry, his ever-evolving sound defies conventions—uncommon, unexpected, and undeniably unorthodox.
“Listeners can expect nothing but real passion and honesty in my music,” CHAZ iLL shared in a recent interview. This authenticity sets him apart in a crowded field, staying true to himself and the stories he weaves through his lyrics.
In 2016, CHAZ iLL clinched the title at the Coast 2 Coast World Showcase in Miami, Florida, earning himself a spot on the front cover of their widespread magazine. This milestone marked a significant leap in his career, spotlighting his talent on a national stage.
His latest release, “Everybody Eats,” is more than just a track—it’s a manifesto. “The song is about bossing up and making things happen by any means necessary,” he explains. “Being a boss by taking care of your people and making sure everybody’s good.”
The accompanying music video, shot by Phoenix-based videographer Adrian Rios (known as Dub) with production assistance from Junior Childress, visually captures this ethos. Curated by CHAZ iLL himself, the video adds a dynamic layer to the already impactful song.
Describing his sound as “melodic-driven with extremely catchy hooks, very honest lyrics, and a strong passionate delivery,” CHAZ iLL offers a refreshing take on hip hop that’s both genuine and innovative.
Already featured in notable outlets like Hip Hop Since 1987, CHAZ iLL is no stranger to the spotlight. And the momentum doesn’t stop there—he’s set to perform at the Rolling Loud showcase in Miami, Florida, on December 14th, bringing his electric energy to one of the biggest stages in hip hop.
