I'm an independent music artist and producer who works under two names: Bobby ILL on the mic and ILLMATICBEATS behind the boards. I've been creating music independently since 2020, writing, recording, mixing, and producing everything myself while shaping a sound that blends blues, funk, hip-hop, and emotional storytelling. I take pride in being hands-on with every part of the process. My focus is on making music that feels intentional and personal. I'm constantly pushing myself to evolve, experiment, and refine my craft while building a body of work that reflects who I am and what I care about.

    The Thrill is Gone Remix
    So I had to remix a MIDI file for a school project. We had to choose a known song. I chose "The Thrill is Gone" by B.B. King. This is not used from the actual song it is literally only MIDI data. I added all the instruments and everything. instrumental
