ILL Ruckus: “Inspiration” combines style and streetwise lyrics with a hot production to keep you moving!

ILL Ruckus got started before it even knew it existed, as its core members were friends since childhood. Though the number of people in the group has fluctuated since it was officially founded in 1999, it’s presently working comfortably as a trio. Sidd, Mr. Smiff, and Valdeast have enough years and shared experiences behind themselves that they don’t just consider themselves a musical trio; they’re a family.

Given their distinct personalities and tastes, it’s no surprise that the trio would be inspired by a number of different Rap & Hip-Hop acts including such legendary East Coast rappers as Biggie Smalls, Wu-Tang Clan, Redman, Mobb Deep, and Nas, along with the massively influential West Coaster Tupac and the also highly respected, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony.

A few months ago ILL Ruckus dropped the track “Inspiration”. It’s clear from the first few bars of the song that they know what they and their listeners want, and they get it. That’s how it should be. If you’re a fan of hip-hop you can’t sleep on ILL Ruckus’ experience and mark on the game, together with the greatness of this track.

“Inspiration” is a great example of a group of artists that are able to get together and make great music. There is so much arrogance and self-centered, narcissistic behavior in the game that it lightens the heart to listen to and appreciate what ILL Ruckus is trying to achieve. I don’t care what anyone says, ILL Ruckus are currently one of the best trios in the rap game today. Every single one of them, whether it be Sidd, Mr. Smiff, or Valdeast, bring the heat on every verse on or track they work on together.

What sets ILL Ruckus apart from other rap groups is that they all have their own unique styles. Each of them comes hard and it just seems like they all put a lot of effort into this track. Any true ILL Ruckus fan knows the energy they bring when riding a beat. These guys are just so entertaining and fun to listen to; you’ll hang on to every word that is spit: “Every time I smoke I get inspired by money. Then I smoke a little more and get inspired by more money…”

ILL Ruckus combines style and streetwise lyrics with a hot production to keep you moving.  They have good flows and chemistry, working very well together. They have been putting it down since day one in 1999, and still are now. If you ain’t got “Inspiration” you need to get it!
