Illustrious x Rasta - Words To Our Knowledge

Another track with Rasta from our team. Trying to get UK rap heard, and my fellow member from Syria!

Illustrious x Rasta - 300 (Prod by Slimcaz)

I wrote this about pressures in life, the feeling of never being able to fit in, or feeling like you're the odd one out. Keep pushing everyday despite what life puts you through.

HeroBorn x Illustrious - Revolution

This was the story of a man who is writing his final letter to his ex. He worked too much and she has left due to him working too much. It's his way of saying it's his fault but also hers. 

A final letter I guess.

Enjoy Peeps.

Keep safe

Hi! My name is Ryan Holden, I go by Illustrious. I'm from Middlesbrough England. I'm a Lyricist/Songwriter, singer & Rapper. I produce beats too but also need producers to collab with! 

WOW! 450K Plays and so many valued followers and friends that provide lots of wonderfully helpful comments. Really big thanks to the SC community for listening and providing such brilliant feedback and support.
I have a team of people around me and we support each other everyday through daily struggles by sharing our music and our passion. If you want to feature on a track or want to collab just send me a message on here or on any other platform in this bio below! The more the merrier! 
EVEN if you don't think to message me because of any reason. DO IT anyways. Honestly as long as your beat hits my ears, I'll write on it. Much love all!
I used to go by CatullusRP.
I have been rapping for 3 years but writing poetry and lyrics for much, much longer! so I'm still new but growing each day.
Any queries for collaborations or if you want lyrics writing please contact me on: ryanholden1@yahoo.co.uk
Anything named "SilentBoyIsHere" used to be a group. Me and the producer kept this going and made a few solo together. We make a few tracks sometimes but It's only me rapping & the beatmaker as the previous american rappers are no longer rapping but you will hear them in a few of the tracks!
Enjoy guys.
