iLoveMakonnen

Makonnen Sheran is a whimsical self-made rapper, singer, and manufacturer who goes on iLoveMakonnen. Blessed and (originally) elevated in LA, California, he transferred beyond Atlanta, Georgia carrying out a guardianship fight. In Georgia, his mom helped him enter making and making music. Adverse conditions — a two-year period where he was under home arrest following accidental shooting loss of life of a pal — produced him focus even more on music, aswell as on blogging and interviewing performers, which allowed him to hone his build and network. From 2011 through 2013, Makonnen released many albums and EPs, like the initial amounts in his DRINK MUCH MORE Drinking water series. He steadily developed a popularity for his surreal and apparently lackadaisical method of performing and rapping. In 2014, Miley Cyrus boosted his profile by publishing an image from the I REALLY LIKE Makonnen EP to Instagram. Afterwards in the entire year, Drake remixed and placed himself into Makonnen’s “Membership Goin’ Through to a Wednesday” and released the effect on his Warner-supported OVO Sound label. Retitled “Wednesday,” the monitor reached quantity 12 within the Sizzling 100 in November. Another EP, I REALLY LIKE Makonnen 2, came on OVO in past due 2015. A yr later, DRINK MUCH MORE Drinking water 6 became the 1st mixtape in the series to become released through a significant label.
