"Yo What up I'm Helix Troy a Chicago born, Omaha based, Educated Emcee, herbal enthusiast and music connoisser. Thank you for taking the time to check me out. Below I have photos, videos and merchandise available to view, watch and purchase respectively. With much more to come".
After writing rhymes and freestyling for god knows how long in 2000 Helix Troy had a brief stint with Simply Skills and Rebl Music, both out of Chicago, before making the Trek to Omaha Nebraska. While maintaining a healthy herbal diet and continuing to hone his skills in private, only displaying his talents through random freestyles, finally Helix Troy teamed up with Op2mus to record "The Seed" with guest production from Bludshot of Rebl Music. Following "The Seed" was "Lung Fu" produced by Sen Beatz with guest production from Nate-O, Bludshot, Thee Lonious Monk and Danny Che AKA Dubbsixx released in November of 2011. After re-connecting with Op2mus, the album "H2O" was spawned, which was a collaboratiion effort with guest production from DJ Norkus and Nick Vella released February 2012. Following "H2O" was "Cloud 9". "Cloud 9" was a tribute album to my late father produced by Op2mus, recorded in less than 9 days and released on April 1 2012. With "ATWOCARGARAGE" set to be released in September of 2012, it's safe to say Helix Troy stays busy.
The video above is the "Official video" for "Listen Up" the first single off of "Lung Fu". A smooth introduction into what type of vibe to expect from H. Troy set off by the production wizardry of Sen Beatz. Filmed and edited by Patrick Fisher at Militia Movies
"Wondering" ft. Op2mus and Xoboi, with production by Op2mus, was the first single of "H2O" selected, filmed and edited by Christian Gilchrist at Rochison Joints. Highlighting the everyday mental and ethical struggle of being an emcee in these oversaturated times and still forging a path of your own, regardless of the illusions put before you.
