Welcome to Fantom Island, where iLL-Literacy's legend finds its habitat. If you've happened upon this portal, may we be as bold as to assert that nested in you is a healthy curiosity. Whether you were drawn here by the Slanted i at this page's 1-o-clock, the quick flash of during loading, or simply because you have a click-happy finger – you've arrived. HihowRUhi?
The peculiar thing about Fantom Island is that it is but a mirage – an Imaginary oasis isolated in the confines of our brainwaves. We shall gradually reveal morsels of our folklore here, so please visit often. To return, simply bring your Imagination as your passport.

ILL-HOMIE: Vision
Maybe one day iLL-Literacy will give into the big record industry machine and sign to a label that assigns a trained chimpanzee from Turkey to manage our Myspace page. But in the meantime, yes we do check our own account, and although sometimes we’re logging in at 3am after a night of debauchery and therefore unable to respond promptly/coherently, we do read everything that is sent our way.
Vision is one of those refreshing discoveries–a 19-year-old emcee hailing from Detroit who hit us up and ended up impressing the hell out of us. Check out this track “Lights, Camera, Action” and you’ll see what we’re talking about…a fresh beat, smooth on the mic, and just enough vocoder to accent it without being T-Painful.
Check out more Vision here. Look out for this one, yo!
