E-Ski

From The Chicago Hip-Hop History Project

E-Ski is an emcee within the Chicago drill music scene. In January 2020, he released a music video for his single “Snakes On A Plane,” produced by 2UNE, that was highlighted by Elevator magazine as a notable release in Chicago hip-hop. The Elevator review describes “Snakes On A Plane” as a “menacing” video backed by a “masterfully rhythmic” beat, with Eski delivering a fast-paced, compelling flow. The video, shot by SHONMAC071, features gritty visuals from a trap setting that enhance the track’s bold, assertive tone. The coverage characterizes E-Ski as an authentic drill artist who remains grounded in the realities he depicts in his music.[1]
