BLK MGC is the revolutionary pairing of triple-threat (mc, dj and producer) Uncle_El and the seductive vocal stylings of A. Billi Free. Crossing genres as well as state lines, El and Billi hail from Chicago and New Mexico, respectively. Crafting a sound that calls back to hallmarks of hip hop, r&b and jazz, the result is a unique and progressive amalgamation of their influences. Feeding the mind and nourishing the soul, BLK MGC is making an indelible mark in music by living up to their name.

 

Part healer, part house party/lounge denizen, A. Billi Free shares content that highlights the beauty of self-discovery with a tone that cures. She grew up singing jazz and choral music in Dayton/Springfield, Ohio (birthplace of funk, pop star John Legend).  As a sociology student performing venues during free time in Chicago, the undeniable influence of live house, electronica and underground hip-hop music and venues would blend with her past training to create a fun, soulful vibe. Although she’s currently rocking and residing in New Mexico and the surrounding Southwest coast, she’s performed at some of Chicago’s legendary venues such as Funky Buddha Lounge, Second City, Abbey Pub and Subterranean. A. Billi Free has shared the stage and collaborated with artists such as Rashaan Ahmad, Xenia Rubinos, Wheelchair Sports Camp and Luckyiam of the Living Legends.
 

DJ Uncle_El has a resume that shows how deeply ingrained he is with the Chicago music scene and hip hop community beyond. He’s released several collaborative and solo projects, worked beside many of Chicago’s top hip-hip acts, handled duties on the mic and turntables as Denmark Vessey's tour DJ, put many producers on such as Knxwledge and Dr. Illingsworth with venues in Chicago as part of the Push Beats collective, and so much more in a career that spans nearly 20 years. You can find this triple threat out and about in the Chicago music scene playing rhythms that get people moving. It's not surprising his rhythms
