FROM THE-HNIH BLOG: Chrizo is one of those people that has a clear-cut stand on his goals, beliefs, and values. With that, he is able to thoroughly and effortlessly express himself in an unfiltered manner - whether it be through speech or through his making of music. Nevertheless, he is able to maintain a boy-next-door persona and is highly approachable, even when you're meeting him for the first time. I suppose that's what makes working with him easy breezy. He's serious about music and he knows how to get down to business, but he has you at ease throughout the process.

Chrizo's first studio, The Chop Shop, was set up back in 2003. So for the past 8 years or so, in his home studio, the beat genius was able to produce an array of notable hip hop albums such as: his sought-after mixtape Thinking Man's Hip hop, acclaimed compilation B-Sides, ILL-J's award-winning The Journey & Logic for Reason, and collaboration with Marquiss G.R.A.E. (Greatest Rap Album Ever) to name a few. This year, he felt it was time to expand his horizons with respect to a more formal, business environment, the services/capabilities of his studio, and range of clients. Thus, the establishment of ILLustrious or ILL-Labs.
