YM

Hip-hop artist YM got his stage name from a when he was called young Mike growing up. The sound is called elegant trap, most recently YM dropped an eleven track project called Trap Olympics. The mixtape came together with the help of Kilo Vision and debuted on April 20th. The duo often collaborate and the consistency in their partnership shows. Highlight include songs “Volumes” and “Nightmare on the Corner.” among others.

This project has been a long time coming, particularly considering the artists’ forced hiatus after complications from getting shot. During the recovery period YM kept trying to come back to the work but also made an effort to seek change from the neighborhood he grew up in. He got involved with music from an early age and his stepfather was a prominent drummer and believes the youth can benefit greatly from getting involved the artistry of sound.
