More than beats and rhymes, Illuminati Congo have made a name for themselves in Chicago and beyond with their heavy use of instrumentals, putting a unique twist on the conventional hip-hop sound of today. All Eye See includes a slew of vocal collaborations, including Cee Knowledge the Doodlebug from Digable Planets and reggae artist Lee "Scratch" Perry.

Illuminati Congoโ€™s All Eye See is available Nov. 8.
