He.llsent :Freedom
He.llsent can be compared to no one. He is as original as his name is. His style of rap is dream like and mythical. He has an uncanny gift with words and speech. Each syllable is spoken with a hidden agenda; he’s almost ninja like with his ability to creep on you and leave you gasping for life with his deadly wordplay. He’s clearly ahead of his time.
He.llsent began his rap career in high school sharpening his sword in the classroom and sitting on bus stops benches while he was supposed to be in class. Not really taking it(MCing) serious until childhood friend told him he was dope enough to release some materiel. He picked a name for himself and began his career as He.llsent.

Then in early 00’s he hooked up with Frontline and appeared on Qwazaar’s debut WTW and Sine Language. He got introspective on his solo song from Sine Language. The song Child Support is still dope and unique to this day.
After staying on the road for a couple years, He.llsent and Qwazaar teamed up one more time to do an Outerlimitz album. This time they teamed up with Silence and released Suicide Prevention on Galapagos4. This album was the clearest and most professional albums to be released in Chicago at that period.
