Lise.FM - Makia

Lise.FM

After seeing his amazing one-man show, "Do You Love Me?" about race and identity last week at Collaboraction, I invited rapper, performer & entrepreneur Makia to join me on a bonus Martin Luther King Day inspired episode of the show. He tells me about the first time he ever wrapped, as a nervous 19 year old, and how listening to Kanye in the shower helped him develop his cadence and confidence. He also talked about how entrepreneurs like P. Diddy & Garry Vaynerchuk inspire his hustle, how Will Smith inspires him to work across all different platforms & how his Dad has served as a role model for him as a black man and a musician throughout the years. Catch Makia's show, which is a part of the Encounters series through the 20th of January at Collaboraction, or his show on the 18th at Flat Iron. Also, follow him on Soundcloud, @therealmakia!
