History
The idea for Divine Council started with Virginia-based rapper Lord Linco. He was then joined by Cyrax! and $ilkmoney, two other Virginia-based rappers. The group released several tracks including Shorty and Foolie and developed a following on social media. Chicago-based producer ICYTWAT joined in 2014 after sending in tracks that were later used by the group.
Divine Council played local gigs around the Richmond area prior to getting a New York show for CMJ's "Leaders of the New Cool" artist showcase. In New York they met André 3000 who introduced himself as fans of the group. Divine Council later signed with Epic Records with André 3000's endorsement. The group played SXSW in 2016 and released their debut EP on Epic Records in August that same year.
