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.

Week one at The Funk University
This month marked the beginning of my semester at Bootsy’s Funk University, an online school for the philosophy of funk (seriously!). I was a bit skeptical at first, but then imagine my joy when I logged in and found dozens of videos discussing The One! A central theme in the spirit of funk, it’s the subject of our album iB4the1, and has been the center of our conversations around the house.
Check out the video above of Norwood Fisher, and then below you’ll find Divinity Roxxx, lead bassist for Beyoncé. That’s all I can share though, lest I get expelled. Daang they’re smart. It’s good stuff, trust me. More info about The Funk University!
*Students of the game, we pass the class.*
