ILLECT Recordings is proud to announce the signing of L.A. Symphony member Flynn to a solo album contract with the new Northwest based hip-hop label. The new album "In Like Flynn" will hit stores later this spring, during May 2004. Guest appearance by fellow members of his crew, L.A. Symphony, join Flynn on his third solo effort. Are you in?

In like who?
Flynn Adam Atkins, like you don’t know.

As one of the founding members of the highly renowned L.A. Symphony crew (currently on Basement / Gotee Records), and also as an accomplished solo artist and producer, Flynn stands out as one of the premier residents of Hip-Hop’s left coast.

With this latest solo effort, Flynn offers the listener more of what the fans have come to expect from him over the years: intricate, neck jerkin’ beats, seasoned with just the right amount of honest, insightful and plainly innovative lyricism.

"In Like Flynn" is a heartfelt collection of songs that took shape over the course of life’s many ups and downs, trials and thorns. As Flynn puts it "This album has covered a time period where certain areas of my faith have been challenged, my career has been challenged... life has been a challenge. But it's in these challenging times that I know who I am and what I believe... and hopefully that comes across in the music."

"In Like Flynn" is impassioned and refined - an album that's grown out of many dues being paid and life lessons being learned. On the journey of life, it’s not unusual for us to be brought down low in order to be brought up high. When all's said and done, Flynn is an artist and performer that takes to heart the wisdom that has been sown into his life by friends and family.

With L.A. Symphony Flynn has shared stages all over the world with the likes of the Clipse, P.O.D., The Black Eyed Peas, Dilated Peoples, Jurassic 5, Talib Kweli, Xzibit, Public Enemy, EPMD, Pax 217, Stavesacre, the Visionaries, Murs, the Living Legends, Zion I, John Rueben, and Kj52.

As an emcee he's worked with Prince Paul, Mario C. (Beastie Boys),The Black Eyed Peas (A&M), Fatlip (the Pharcyde), Out of Eden (Gotee), L.A. Jay, Benny Cassette (Island/Def Jam), Mars Ill (Gotee), Pigeon John, Soup the Chemist, Blake Knight (ill harmonics), Sharlok Poems, Joey the Jerk, Phonetic Composition, and The Tunnel Rats (Uprok).

Flynn is also a prolific producer and songwriter having collaborated with The Grits, John Rueben, Kj52, DJ Maj, Pigeon John, Soup the Chemist, Sharlok Poems, Joey the Jerk, Cookbook & Uno Mas, Homestyle, Deux Process, and Pax 217.

In addition, Flynn founded his own record label, Eartube Empire in 1996 under which he successfully released his first two albums "Louder" and "Burntout", as well as L.A. Symphony's highly sought-after marquee independent album "Composition No. 1".

All of that to say, we know who’s in. And that’s just Flynn.
