MAINE SKRAPP BIO:

Maine SkRaPp was born in Jamaica Queens . At age 2, Maine moved to Baghdad a.k.a. the Bronx where he calls home. Growing up in the Bronx in a low income housing area was rough. SkRaPp often got into trouble but his passion for music was strong. After several incidents in New York , Maine moved to Atlanta to live with his father. During his stay in Atlanta Maine did some soul searching and decided to pursue his passion of music. Upon his return to New York , Maine began recording some of the music he had been working on. As he continued to explore his talent he slowly began letting others hear his music. Sitting in the car one night, Maine let CO (Animal Klik C.E.O.) hear some of his song. Impressed by his style and approach to the music, CO signed Maine to Animal Klik the rest is history. When asked what sets him apart from other artists/rappers in today’s music industry Maine replied…

“I’m the voice of the ghetto. I’ve been through everything from hustling, jail, fights, and losing friends. I understand how the average person in the hood feels and what they go through. My music is a direct reflection of the hood I’m from. Don’t misunderstand and misinterpret me and think that I’m glorifying the streets; I’m simply trying to bring light to the situation of the ghetto.”

And when Maine was asked about his position in Hip-Hop, Maine replied…

“I have a top spot in Hip-Hop that is rightfully mine so get use to hearing and seeing Maine SkRaPp.”
