Born & raised in Oklahoma City, & Both started rapping at age 12.
The brothers are members of the PAWNEE Tribe. Shorter then everyone else, but to tall to be midgets. Their extreme faith in GOD is definitely an eye catcher, with a motto they say, “Love GOD & Party.”
LiL Mike grew up a problem child, By the age of 10, the boy had already suffered more than most kids his age. Mike said he was abused, endured bouts of depression and thoughts of suicide. Being small and poor didn’t help. but with the help of the heavenly Father Mike escape gang life and put all his time into dancing like Michael Jackson also writing poetry gave him the courage to stand tall in the spotlight – despite being only 4 feet 8 inches tall.
Mike says, “Christian Music helped with his life change. The Gospel Gangsters, King Shon, T-Bone and DC Talk was in my tape player all the time.” Mike realized he had a message to share, that could help other kids avoid gangs. He could show them that no matter how many obstacles you face, God can help you through them & that being a Christian aint so lame.
“My life has been relatively normal – no thugs or drama. I’m like exactly the amount of years younger than Mike to miss all of that stuff,” Bone said. (5 Years apart) Bone was still a child when his older brother helped Bone use his talent for rapping & telling jokes on stage. Bone says, “the music business is pretty much their only job” besides weekends they aren’t traveling & doing shows their at Old Paris flea market in OKC, “405 Music” sharing the love with their hometown friends & fans.
The brothers are writing and recording as many songs as they can & performing all over the World with success in their grasp! Two natives who put a positive spin on the rap game.
