Chilly Tee isn't your regular 90's emcee; Travis Knight(Chilly Tee) is the son of then-Nike CEO & President Phil Knight. He released his first and only lp "Get Off Mine" in 1993 with a full album production from The Bomb Squad. But like fellow Bomb Squad's affiliates Young Back Teenagers, he wasn't a Vanilla Ice type of rapper. 7 of the 9 tracks from "Get Off Mine" are written by Firstborn of YBT while the other two are written by Chilly Tee himself. Some of the lyrics may not seem right(his dad was one of the richest at the time) but his flow is not bad; he sometimes uses the digge-dy das efx style but it's alright. You can't forget about the production though, definitely the main reason to check it out... Here's the Travis Knight of today.

Wack MC + average beats = below average album. Last good BS beats were on "AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted" and "Fear Of A Black Planet". What's next? Marky Mark & the Funky Bunch??
ReplyDeleteFuck Chilly T, Phil Knight & his child labor supporting company!
Bomb Squad? Chuck D? "I Like Nike but wait a minute.." ?
ReplyDeletedamn this doesnt feel right to me..
haha I remember this being one of the few hip-hop artists I specifically avoided checking out back in the day. I'm gonna DL this now. 8)
ReplyDeleteWould you be able to find the instrumental to "All About The Fetti" by Young Lay, that was on the New Jersey Drive soundtrack?
ReplyDeleteI found it searching the T.R.O.Y forum, but the link was dead.
Hope you can help me out...
I'll also add, that I love that beat, but the lyrics on that song suck so bad. I need to get the instrumental. lol
ReplyDeleteInteresting relic...beats are pretty good but the boy's flow is not...YBT were underrated and could jam but Chilly needs to go back in the freezer...
ReplyDeleteBTW you guys are the shit...best hip hop blog out there
Not feeling this anymore than the YOUNG WACK TEENAGERS,in particuliar...I believe this is the second incarnation of-THE BOMB SQUAD.If you remember(ERIC"VIETNAM"SADLER)had left the squad right after-FEAR OF A BLACK PLANET and was replaced by GARY G-WIZ.Anyone who owns or heard Sista Souljah's-360 of Power,(prod.by E.SADLER)knows[SADLER'S]sound is the missing element that killed the BOMB SQUAD "sonics" circa:THE ENEMY STRIKES BLACK.With that said,THIS SITE IS THE TRUTH!!!!!!!!!
