Mawb
Hey, what's up. It's good to be here thanks for having me. I'd like to introduce myself. I'm Mawb. that's pronounced like "Mob" I spelled it the way I did intentionally. alot of people wanna think it stands for something but it kinda doesn't. if you wanna make an acronym, feel free. but it's really just Mawb like "Mawb"
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I been into music since I can remember. mainly rap since the late 80s. I started writing my own stuff back in like 90. but I didn't really get into rapping seriously until 1995 when I hooked up with REDrum (see stormwriterz). that's when I came up with the name "Mawb".
later when we started doing our album, I discovered my love for making music more. I started making our beats and since then my whole appreciation for music has just continued to grow.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I try to play live but can never manage to get a gig. one time I performed at my own birthday party and got booed off.
