MC wreckshin grew up on the streets of Jupiter, Florida; a town with lots of rich elderly people. From the moment he was born he knew he was destined to become the world's most hardcore gangsta rapper. At a very young age he joined the most hardcore gang in Jupiter. He used his experiences as a gangbanger to write some of the most intense lyrics imaginable. At the age of 21 he realized "the hardcore gang" he rolled with wasn't a gang at all but in actuality they were the mentally handicapped kids in the special education class at his school. Thrown into total dismay MC wreckshin went into a month long robotussin binge and somehow ended up on the streets of Orlando, Florida. This is where he met his DJ and together they produced "Our Very First Ever E.P. Ever" E.P.
Why this name?
My real name is Mike Sweeney. When I was younger I'd always get made fun of for my name because if you say it fast it sounds like Mike's Weeney. I was taunted to the point of immunity. MC wreckshin is a play on my real name. If you say it fast it sounds like M's Erection. Originally I also choose the name because I wanted to have a band back me up along with my DJ and call ourselves MC wreckshin and the Bonerz, maybe one day but I doubt I'll ever find any band members willing to call themselves the bonerz.
Do you play live?
One day hopefully. I need a lot more practice and experience before that will happen.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It's changed the way artists get exposure. We've had 800 downloads of our stuff in the first month of putting it online. It's crazy, without the internet we'd never get this many people to hear our stuff.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I'd rather start my own label but if the Beastie Boys (or someone equally as legendary) wanted us on their label I don't think we could refuse.
Band History:
It all started during the crazy hurricane season here in florida. I believe it was during hurricane Charlie (the first in a series of 3 motherf***in bi***es). I was chillin with JeffMK in his town (cause my town Orlando was getting f***ed up the ass by Charlie) and he had electricity. It was still pretty bad outside so we couldn't really do anything, so of course, we decided to get drunk. He was messin around on his computer makin music and i was like "dude we should start a band, you make the beats and i'll rap." I wrote some drunken lyrics to a song called "bubble in my butt". It was all pretty terrible, I had never even attempted rapping before, but with practice i'd like to think i've gotten a little better. After the hurricane and through the other ones I kept writing lyrics but we never recorded anything. Then JeffMK decided he was gonna move to california in one month and work at his sisters new bar. So then it was cram time, he moved in to my place for that month and we worked on music (and got drunk, ha) everyday. My friends helped us do some skits as well and in that drunken hazy month we finished "Our Very First Ever E.P. Ever" E.P.
