I randomly came across Gods'Illa one night listening to Ill Street Grooves one Monday night on 89.3FM, WPFW - Washington, DC on a night in Summer 2011 when Gods'Illa was in the studio promoting their latest project, The CPR Blendtape, which features several cameos from on Ms. Erykah Badu (under the pseudonym, Ms. Downtown Loretta Brown). The show got me hooked. I downloaded the mixtape straight away, and if an mp3 could "pop", it would've.
Fast forward a few months to October when I was down in Atlanta for the A3C Hip Hop Festival. An amazing array of up-an-coming hip hop acts from across the country and the world. It was one of those shows with a million acts, most of which played 10-20 minutes. I was watching The Bodega Brovas with one of my buddies, and leaned over to him and told him the group I came to see was, Gods'Illa. Wouldn't you know they were standing right aside us and overheard my comment. Needless to say, I immediately introduced myself as a fan of their work and we shot the shit everytime we crossed paths over the next 3 days. Their set was one of the best at A3C, and even included a feature with Boot Camp Clik member, Sean Price.
All that to say, check out the video!
