Maktown Radio's finest: Mickey Factz and Donny Goines
This blog has been a long time coming. In little over a year, history has been made. I am incredibly proud of Mickey Factz and Donny Goines. About a year ago, when I began my Maktown Radio mixtape series, I came across some of their very first mixtapes. Although my Guest of Honor series was growing wildly popular, I wanted to create a series to showcase all the hot underground and unsigned talent I came across.
Before Mickey had rose to the fame he has now, I got a hold of his Back To The Future mixtape and put his song Juanita Applebottom on my mixtape Maktown Radio 0: Soundclick Vs. Myspace. Mickey's BTTF mixtape had a whole theme to it where Mickey basically did his own renditions of older Hip-Hop songs from the late 80's and early 90's. Immediately, I could see the genius behind the monster. So, you could imagine my excitement when I get on imeem many months later and see him being featured. I managed to get featured by imeem myself and eventually was voted "Artist of the Year" for a period of time in late 2008 in a user poll. Around this time, Mickey had another mixtape called Heaven's Fallout, in which he tried his hand over the electronic genre. I could tell, even in that short period of time, his skills had increased and this time I took 2 tracks Breathe Another Day and There's Nothing Left and put them on my Maktown Radio 3 mixtape. Then came the numerous heavyweights praising Mickey. He even had the chance to work with some of them. Recently, he signed a deal with Honda to be their 'Hip-Hop spokesperson'.
Donny Goines was another story. When I heard his mixtape Off The Books, I figured he was from the west coast since he was giving big up's to Bishop Lamont. Turns out he's in New York. But, once again, I could hear the hunger and picked up 2 joints, Hip-Hop Lazarus and Don't Be Blinded and put it on that very same mixtape Maktown Radio 0: Soundclick Vs. Myspace. Donny has also been able to get in touch with some heavyweights and I can confirm his next project will be a big event.
So, imagine my surprise when I see that these 2 are working side by side! Turns out Donny Goines and Mickey Factz run in the same circle. It's a small world but we have big dreams. You make a mixtape DJ proud.
