Rising Stars: Meet Michael Scott (Lil Mike Mike) of Westside Detroit

Today we’d like to introduce you to Michael Scott (Lil Mike Mike)

Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
I always was an artist , I started writing in the 90s I wrote my first song to regulators by Warren G. As I grew older I got better in highschool I use to battle rap in the hallways and at the malls. After highschool The opportunity was presented to me to start rapping with Cosa Nostra Entertainment and needless to say I took it and created my legacy I turned into one of them ones out of Detroit. With the help of tv shows such as turbulence , 7mile 2 belle isle, dirty glove network etc they helped me
Become who I am today some say I’m a Detroit Rap Legend

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
No it has not been a smooth road , with me going to federal prison for 10years for conspiracy to distribute cocaine … when I was released it was a whole new generation that didn’t know who I was or the work I put in so I had to go thru the same grind again and put that work in to get the people familiar. Then there comes the business part that I had no idea about prior so I’ve been self teaching myself about that paperwork and song registration etc

Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?
I am A rapper and that’s exactly what I’m known for. My authenticity sets me apart from almost everyone on the rap game. You can’t get this kinda input from anyone , at least not anyone that has been thru it 1st hand! I talk street talk but I teach lessons in my music. I’m a 1 of 1, I talk about the consequences of street life as well as the rewards. I speak from my soul with hopes that it reaches someone before they make a life changing decision

Is there something surprising that you feel even people who know you might not know about?
I have never been managed everything I have done literally I HAVE DONE . I book my shows I sell my features I register my own music I am behind every decision. I am also a graphic designer and I record myself !
