Mike Faro was born on September 13, 1985. Faro’s parents, both artists, immigrated to Los Angeles in 1988 when Faro was three years old. Faro became a music aficionado at an early age, but he developed a unique passion for hip hop music when he was first introduced to it in 1995. A close friend lent Faro a tape featuring artists such as 2Pac, Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, and Kurupt. Hip Hop music not only became a love but also an outlet for him; He immersed himself into music to keep the violence, which was a prevalent problem throughout Faro’s school years, from surrounding him. Music to him became another world where nothing else mattered and he could escape his reality. It was in 1998, at the age of 13, that Faro realized he had the ability to rap himself. He spent all of his school time entertaining himself and fellow students with his raps, writing and developing his talent every day. In his late teens, Faro started doing background work for movies. During this time he met other aspiring rappers, and they often formed ciphers and shared their talent. It became clearer that Faro had an extraordinary gift. With all the support and encouragement surrounding him, Faro finally decided to take the proper steps to becoming a hip hop artist. Faro stepped into the recording studio for the first time in 2005 at the age of 20. Since then, he has been working with various talented artists and producers. The whole art of being a rapper to Faro means being a profound poet, a good performer, having distinct character, and, most of all, loving every minute of it.START Block to Put Comments in Div
