Spotlight: Mickey Factz

by bILLY sHAKESPEARE AKA bILLY fABLE


Mickey's been around for awhile. He used to be called Renegade. He used to be called Jack Danielz (WTF?). A resident of the Bronx, Mickey was a ghostwriter over the years for many rappers like Remy Ma. In the past, he had to turn down a deal from Missy Elliot's label, and it seemed the right move since he's now one of the hottest new hip hop artists on the market.
What I think is worthwhile about Mickey is the fact that he is simply not a rapper, but an emcee. At first I was weary. Mickey seemed like The Cool Kids or The Pack, basically just another fashion rapper. I didn't judge too much, I listened. Then I listened some more.
