Themacj and the climb of a rap star: As a young kid, Themacj would often be very hyperactive and cause a lot of trouble growing up. He would often beatbox around the household and rap the lyrics of famous rappers such as, “Eminem”, “50 Cent”, “Ludacris”, “Snoop Dog” & “Lil Wayne”. Themacj started to play a game called “Guitar Hero’’ which vastly improved his music abilities, he later then developed those skills into playing the drums. Going into his last year of high school, Themacj began to produce his own beats as he was starting to hoan his rapping skills, which turned into him mixing and mastering his own songs years later.
Inspired by artists like Eminem, Big Sean, Joyner Lucas, and Hopsin, he would learn that to make your dreams a reality it was important to work hard at it. He learned how to produce and engineer his songs and became a one man powerhouse within the Canadian hip-hop scene. His rapid fire delivery and impressive prowess of the pen have attracted fans from all over the country and beyond, amassing tens of thousands of streams and praise from prestigious artists/producers such as Boi1da and King Los.
