The ground breaking March '09 release "Talent Defender" is now available!

This album introduces signature songs like "Where Will I Go?", "The Real Midwest" and "Talent Defender"--the kind of hard hitting, intensely autobiographical tunes that have made this former boxer, gang member, prison survivor and University of Kansas student one of the most sought after...and downloaded...performers in the Midwest!

Next in line for the always provocative MC, Bilistic, is the birth of his alter ego "Haight Ashbury" as well as the birth of a brand new genre of music he is calling "Hippie Hop."

Bilistic/Haight Ashbury looks to MOVE MODERN HIP HOP INTO THE FUTURE WITH ROCK & SOUL DRIVEN TRACKS, PLUS ICONIC 60S TUNES. Stand out in this mix are his innovative takes on some iconic 60s tunes. In fact, "Hippie Hop" is how the 27-year old Wichita, Kansas based artist, producer and New Life Records label head describes his "reinvented...not remixed" versions of such classics as "Let it Be"and "Leavin' on a Jet Plane".
