An American record label, Uncle Howie Records was founded in 1998 by Ill Bill as a tribute to his beloved Uncle Howie. Originally created to release music from the hip hop group Non Phixion, the label quickly expanded into a diverse entertainment company.

With a focus on hip hop and underground music, Uncle Howie Records has become known for its unique and innovative releases. The label has worked with talented artists such as [a=Ill Bill], [a=Non Phixion], and many others who have made significant contributions to the genre.

It has become a hub for creativity and artistic expression, providing opportunities for emerging artists to showcase their talent. With an unwavering commitment to quality and authenticity, Uncle Howie Records continues to shape the future of hip hop.

With a hardcore mind &amp; explicit tongue, prolific NY rapper / producer ILL BILL keeps the spirit of underground hip-hop alive with an affinity for dusty sampling &amp; a lyrical spectrum that ranges from vulgar &amp; horrific to deeply insightful &amp; pained. Bill was influenced by the violent &amp; profane, employing dark subject matter to convey messages that often had more depth beneath the surface shock factor. Emerging in the early '90s, he joined MC Serch (3rd Bass), Sabac, Goretex &amp; DJ Eclipse to form seminal rap crew Non Phixion. Signing with both Geffen Records &amp; Matador Records (and then parting ways with both), while issuing acclaimed 12" singles like I Shot Reagan &amp; Black Helicopters, Non Phixion caused no shortage of controversy, pushing Bill to start Uncle Howie Records for the Brooklyn-based crew to finally unleash its debut LP, The Future Is Now, in 2002. In 2007, ILL BILL co-founded La Coka Nostra with rap legends House Of Pain &amp; Slaine. Bill also makes up half of the super duo, Heavy Metal Kings, trading verses with the legendary Vinnie Paz.Now as we approach the end of 2020, Bill unleashes his new solo album La Bella Medusa. LBM delivers some of Bill's best work to date, boasting incredible features from Tech N9ne, Pharoahe Monch, Conway, Kool G Rap, Vinnie Paz &amp; many more. Bill is constantly evolving as an artist &amp; with LBM he shows diversity &amp; shines alongside his guests all the whilst giving you exactly what you want to hear from the Cult Leader.
