Poison Pen

CHINO XL

Last night, Immortal Technique and his Rebel Army Soldiers Poison Pen, Chino XL wrapped up their three-day West Coast tour in Central City (Santa Ana OC) at La Santa OC. The three native East Coast lyricists each delivered an epic intimate performance in OC, performing classic joints alongside rare and debut tracks that had never been showcased live. This was an epic and once in a lifetime intimate experience.

Immortal Technique, born in Peru and raised in Harlem, NY, rose to prominence in the late ’90s and early ’00s in the NY underground Hip-Hop scene after participating in battle cyphers and distributing copies of Revolutionary Vol. 1 on the streets of NY, which were mostly written during his incarceration. Poison Pen, TEAM HOMI’s (Team Homicide) finest from Brooklyn, originated in the battle rap scene in NY. Pen is known not just for his lyricism but also for participating in and hosting battle cyphers. Chino XL, originally from Dirty Jerz (New Jersey), was discovered by Rick Rubin at 15 years old. Chino participated in freestyle battles and showcases, where his intricate wordplay and provocative lyrics quickly caught the attention of fellow artists.
