Today we’d like to introduce you to Skitzo Michigan.
Hi Skitzo, so excited to have you on the platform. So, before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
Most of everything is in my bio I sent that over in my EPK But I started in high school with friends and rapping for my mom’s drunk friends as a kid They use to give me change and I would take my bros and sister to the store That’s when I got the music bug for performing
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not, what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
You always get hate from people telling you to give up. It’s a million to one shot. My content was always controversial so people would tell me I’m never going to make with the content I had. Having no father around and a mom addicted to drugs was hard. I’m the oldest of 4 so I had to basically help raise my siblings
My grandmother raised us
But I can’t complain because it made me who I am
I lost a lot of friends on the way to where I’m at now either because of death or their lack of commitment to the music and grind
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
My content definitely sets me apart from everyone else I describe it as such …
Trap beats with public enemy content
I’m a full-time father who wants to destroy the stereotype of that white Amerika has of the black man
I have a bachelor’s in the science of communication
Being a full-time father is what I’m most proud of
When I’m not making music, I’m working with the youth in the community trying to help them finish their high school education

I’ve watched this man progress so much over the last 10-15 years. From doing shows and battles at Kraftbrau Brewery to opening up for Tech N9ne at the Kalamazoo State Theater and earning multiple degree’s, all while staying true to himself and his art! I am a true day oner, supporter, and Team Skitzo for life!!!
