1. What's your stage name.
āļøĀ I go by Private Mac 2. How long have you been doing music?
āļøĀ Iāve been creating music since 2012 but I wasnāt able to gain resource towards a studio until 2015. 3. What inspired you to start making music?
āļøĀ Iāve gained many influences as a young emcee but I wouldnāt say that I was inspired, Iād say that many people have fed my influence towards me having my own stylistic. But If you ask me ? I, myself inspire me. 4. Who do you look up to in the music industry? Why?
āļøĀ I look up to God and MYSELF. Thatās no disrespect to anyone in the game right now, thatās just how I maneuver. 5. Where are you from? What was it like growing up there?
āļøĀ Iām from Newark, New Jersey. Life in Newark wasnāt really your average place. Despite the crime waves and homicidal reputation that my city has. Specially with me seeing certain things at such a young age, itās not always pretty. 6. What is your ultimate goal making music?
āļøĀ The goal beneath all of the benefits of excelling with my music is longevity, love, and liberty. I donāt think many would comprehend the way that my mentality is set up. I donāt wake up everyday knowing that I do this for the millions, mansions, Maseratiās. I wake up knowing that my music is a reflection of who I am. I take pride and passion when I grab the pen. 7. What do you think of the music scene today and what could you contribute to it?
āļøĀ Honestly ? I strongly believe that thereās not much substance and volume within the music of today. The condoning of illiterate shit seems to be the wave. My contribution ? Nothing but authenticity and purity. The art of emceeing means so much to me and Iād be damned to let this generation poison minds with this b.s.
8. What are your thoughts on Trump?
āļøĀ I donāt have a hatred nor a disliking towards the man, I just donāt support nor condone the things that heās done. I canāt say much on the Donald, a piece of shit if you ask me. 9. Do you have any celebrity crushes? If so, who?
āļøĀ I donāt really have any, thereās gorgeous women out there though. No doubt in that. 10. Where can the people find your music? (Drop all social media links)
āļøĀ You can find majority of my music at Soundcloud.com/soulrhythmrecordings , Datpiff.com/realpvtmac , and Spinrilla.com/prviatemac97 . I have two EPās that are currently out now; āBEFORE TWENTYā - EP, & āThe Side Aā - EP. Make sure you guys go check those joints out. My new project is set to drop next year, titled: āBuy My Art, Not Cocaineā.Ā 11. As the new year approaches, where do you see yourself in 2018?
āļøBigger platforms, enormous blessings, elevation,Ā experience, andĀ excellence the right way. WithĀ legitimate purpose as well, as of late things for meĀ personally have been fucked up but Iāve learned to move forward in this course of life. Iām looking to seek for more self- health next year, more sanity, more progression. As long as I keep my persistence in tact and my focus right, thereās NOTHING stopping me but MYSELF. Ā I say this with theĀ grace of God.Ā
