Non Phixion is a hip-hop formation founded in Brooklyn , New York, from 1995 to 2006 and again since 2014 . It consists of the rappers Ill Bill (founder, manager and head of the group), Goretex (now Gore Elohim), Sabac Red and DJ Eclipse.
history
Within six months of their founding, they released their debut single Legacy / No Tomorrow .
Non Phixion performed in almost all New York clubs during their career. You could also experience the crew live in London, Zurich, Berlin, Los Angeles, Boston, San Francisco and a few other places. There were also some gigs with artists like GZA ( Wu-Tang Clan ), Gang Starr , Run DMC , Mos Def , Fat Joe , Greis and Necro . Today Non Phixion have fan bases in Japan, Europe and of course the USA.
On July 14, 2006, Ill Bill announced that Non Phixion had broken up. The reason for this were some disagreements with the rapper and crew member Goretex. It was also stated that Ill Bill, Sabac and DJ Eclipse will continue to work together. All artists of the crew will also continue their solo projects.
At a concert in New York on October 30, 2014 performed by Cypress Hill , La Coka Nostra , Immortal Technique and Vinnie Paz , the members of Non Phixion announced their reunion. In April and May 2015, Non Phixion performed for the first time in nine years in Canada for the 20th Anniversary Reunion Tour . After a few appearances in the USA in the summer, they could be seen in October and November 2015 together with the group Jedi Mind Tricks at concerts in Italy, the Netherlands and Sweden, among others.
style
Non Phixion describe their style of music themselves as “ b-boy gangster meets futuristic world of apocalypse ”, this is also reflected in the mostly very dark songs. There are also some metal and rock elements in this style, especially Ill Bill had listened to a lot of metal in his youth and therefore incorporated some elements into his tracks. The group was also influenced significantly by the style of the Wu-Tang Clan.
