Even though Gibby Stites departed from Majik Ninja Entertainment last year, he had pledged to continue his career on an independent scale, as expected. His return to independence was announced today as he has revealed his upcoming album, entitled STill iLL. Along with producer Charlie Beans, Gibby Stites stated that the release is technically an EP and will have eight tracks, but there will be no features. STiLL iLL will be available on February 11th, 2022.
There will be pre-order links to the album on his official website. In addition, the first single, “Slowdown”, will be released next Friday. You can see the quote below that Gibby Stites stated about the background to this album.
This project officially marks my return to independence and in a lot of ways is a fresh start. We took it back to the basics with the merch and designs on this one as we get back to building and branding Gibby Stites as an indie artist.
Gibby Stites released a handful of independent releases prior to joining Twiztid‘s Majik Ninja Entertainment (MNE) label in 2020. While on MNE, the label released the EP entitled The 13th Wonder, which featured collaborations with Jamie Madrox, Boondox, and Blaze Ya Dead Homie. Afterwards, he released the Welcome to iLLViLLE album in late 2021. Around the same time, Gibby Stites also ventured outside of music and created the Bacon Boy comic book. He parted ways with the MNE label as 2021 came to a close.
