    "One of the best HipHop albums of 2010"- Chuck D

    This is the official, limited edition, autographed FEEL GOOD MUSIC cd digi-pack, and it comes with the limited edition RISE OF THE MACHINES ep featuring R.A. the Rugged Man and Chuck D from public Enemy (while supplies last).

    ILLUS has been recording music and illustrating comics professionally since 1991 (selling over 250,000 records with no airplay or major label deal), recording and touring with such legends as Chuck D and Public Enemy, DJ Johnny Juice, R.A. the Rugged Man, Dilated Peoples and Blackalicious, and garnering praise from the likes of Wendy Day and numerous HIPHOP legends. But he has reached a whole new level of excellence with his new album- FEEL GOOD MUSIC produced by J.J. Brown.

    Feel Good Music is a 7-song opus that displays the passion, soul and heart of the artist with a true feel-good HIPHOP vibe. ILLUS is not afraid to wear his heart on his sleeve as he raps about his love for his wife, family and friends as well as the microphone and the culture that inspired the man. FEEL GOOD MUSIC is more than just nostalgia or a dedication to all of the great HIPHOP pioneers, it is a true modern day classic that captures the essence of all that is good about HIPHOP music and brings it to light in the modern age.

about

The title is obviously a play on the old show- Have Gun — Will Travel, which was an American Western television series that aired from 1957 through 1963. The show followed the adventures of Paladin, a gentleman gunfighter (played by Richard Boone on television, and by John Dehner on radio), who preferred to settle problems without violence, yet, when forced to fight, excelled.

I felt like this fitted perfectly with my philosophy (except I don't excel at fighting, but I do excel at handing out lyrical beat downs). I wanted this to be an upbeat, lyrical track that I can perform live and rock the party with a positive yet aggressive vibe. The idea was that I could travel anywhere and kill it without having to exploit and use violence or negative imagery such as drugs, sex or murder.

This is actually one of my personal favorites to perform.

Have Fun, Will Travel

Intro

Have fun, we’ll travel
And tear down your town
No violence or guns
we came to get down.
So let’s get down
Let’s have some fun
Rebels of underground
HipHop number one

Verse 1

When I bust from the gut trust the thrust crush
Comp get stomped to dust in a clutch no fuss
I’m in my own category I can’t be touched
No crutch always fresh I never rust
Muck with us you’re outta luck it sucks
Sucker ducks get swamped and plucked
And struck like a puck thrown under a truck
So tuck your head between your legs and cluck
You’re stuck ya schmuck
Ayo what’s up buttercup
You ain’t tough cause you talk drugs and guns
You thugs are all fluff
I’ve had enough of that stuff
So just hush
Blessed from above
With passion, lust and love
I ain’t deaf blind or dumb I don’t run
I ain’t so so never been ho hum
I dance to the beat of a different drum
To spread peace love unity and having fun

Bridge to Chorus. 1x
I’m no dummy sunny I’m educated
So don’t debate it or hate it, better face it
All that negativity’s a waste kid awaken
It’s time for peace so just embrace it

Chorus

I don’t wannbe u, I just wannabe me
I gotta be true, I gotta be free
I’m an emcee, I don’t wanna hurt no body
I’m just a bad muther lover when I rock the party

Verse 2

He’ll yeah I’m rapper or better yet an emcee
Never say that I’m not when I rock beats
None badder it’s a fact that I’m the best me
That you ever see on track don’t sweat B
You can test me but you know I always pass
So do try impressing me when you talking trash
Popping smack never lasts you’ll get gassed
Left in last and slashed and scratched like a rash
and I’m a laugh my ass off
call me wack or soft I don’t really care I’m a blast off
you’ll get smashed and tossed in the trash and lost
like old crap noone wanted like a bad cough
my hats off to all the real tough guys
I don’t want no beef I just wanna bust rhymes
Want you all to feel me when I spit mines
So we can all have fun and (reel)in good times

Chorus

I don’t wannbe u, I just wannabe me
I gotta be true, I gotta be free
I’m an emcee, I don’t wanna hurt no body
I’m just a bad muther lover when I rock the party

Verse 3

I’m just an old man chilling never did a killing
A sensitive artist here to share my feelings
Don’t wanna scare any women or children
when I’m building
I’d rather uplift and god willing
Do what’s right in life I’m no villain
So I celebrate peace love and healing
And have a little fun when I’m wheeling and dealing
But I only hustle art so I haven’t made a million
I’m off the chart illing in the underground
Resilient with the funky sound
Brilliant also profound
Get down rise up throw your fists in the air
Have a little fun shake it like you don’t care
Ridiculous, inquisitive, meticulous and different
Isn’t it conspicuous this lyricist can rip this ish
I got the gift of gab like blackalicious
Rap’s exquisite illustrious wizard

When I rock the party don’t look at me funny
When I rock the party don’t act like a dummy
When I rock the party don’t bust no guns
When I rock the party just have some fun
