Illaman used to be MC on an old rave pirate station at the age of 14, which meant he was constantly surrounded by such a variety of music, which made Illaman open to create music for a number of different genres. Illaman is most definitely one of the most hardworking MCs around; he acts as a MC for a number of artists at a number of venues, but is also a part of Problem Child- a rap group that has an insane level of rhyme.

Not only does he work hard and play hard, but he is also a really nice guy. Welcoming us into the interview with strong JD’s and a lot of banter made me a fan of his for life. In this interview we chat about what got him into music, festivals and his love: Problem Child.

He still blows my mind. My face kinda says it all really.
