SYNOPSIS: Insofar as the irony of retro-futurist 80s rebel pop was too overwhelming to recreate in sound or iconography, the band known as iLL-Literacy has either speciously or insightfully (maybe both) opted for sample-inspired, base-driven electric gospel funk in the form of their new single, Gentlemans Kool-Aid. The soymilkbuttasmooth lead track from their debut project iB4the1.1 is both a reflection on the warped and often glennbeckianized historical narratives of what it means to be a gentleman, and perhaps a confession of the fragile ecology of male ego. Lets call it pollution of the Egology, otherwise known as drinking thine own Kool-Aid.
