MNK

Born in Libreville, Gabon MNK began to cultivate his love for music in high school. His first love being education, he always did well in his studies. Especially out of honoring a promise to his mom. During his teenage years he would play around with lyrics and started creating his own when a classmate made beats. This new found skill started his musical journey when he and a group of friends decided to found a hip hop group. While flourishing in his confidence his heart was broken when his family relocated to another country while he stayed behind to finish his diploma. Though he was hurt by the distance, MNK not only finished school but also recorded music for the first time.

Graduating from high school early, he set to further his studies in the states. Despite honing in on his degree, he still stayed connected to music by writing and rhyming over beats. There was a deep flame consuming him to get into music artistry. Once he graduated and began working he decided that he wanted to tap into his dream. MNK made the leap of faith when he connected with a producer and began to work on his craft. Priding himself on his education, his mental finesse welded with his lyrics and flow. Finally tapped into his purpose, MNK makes music with the same determination he had for his academic success.
