The small industrial border-city of Sarnia, Ontario, Canada was hardly a hiphop Mecca in the late eighties. Yet Ill Seer and a few select friends such as the Beat Mason, discovered Public Enemy’s “It Takes A Nation of Millions” with help from Detroit television and MuchMusic’s “Rapcity”. He was hooked on the flourishing young genre immediately. Later, he fronted an eclectic alternafunkpunkhiphop outfit named The Chevrons until their outlandish success drove them apart (or something like that). During his Bachelor studies he independently delved into poetry from every historical period and style, ancient to modern, freeverse to pentameter. Upon completion of his first degree he decided to pursue a Masters in Theology at the University of Cambridge, England. In a new and strange country, he decided to once again grace the stage, this time for an Acid-Jazz ensemble called Octopus. The other emcee in the group, Ninko, later introduced him to Bee109 in a cipher in the middle of Market Square. They quickly realized a common passion and formed a hiphop group, Co-Lab.Oration, with emcees Ninko, Mad Prolific, Bee109, producers AxWax, Bee109, and Rich t (Michaelis Constant), and DJ Chris Groove.
