Interview: Mickey Factz

Whether you've first learned of Mickey Factz rapping over N*E*R*D production back in 2006, being on the XXL Freshman cover in 2009, or rap battling Daylyt in 2017, it's a fact that Mickey has been a consistent face in the hip-hop culture. The Brooklyn emcee had time to chat with OG Illa about his early musical influences, the successes, and lessons he had as an indie artist, along with future tour plans. They also dove into how Mickey rapped an entire song without using the letter "a" and how that conceptual song came about.

You can find Mickey on Instagram @mickey.factz and Twitter @MickeyFactz . You can find OG Illa on all social media @HLGNLIFE. Earlier in the year, they released a track with each other called "Respect" with Rah Scrilla and Scream Geronimo.
