[INTERVIEW] Who Is TREL MACK (@trelmack) ?

-->

Last week, we got the chance to talk to Philadelphia born hip-hop artist "Trel Mack" who is building a crazy buzz on the net with his crazy rhyming skills, and nice smooth, but forceful flow....

How did you get your name?

Um, it was something I pretty much inherited, you know, child hood years

neighborhood girls use to like me, so the guys use to call me Trel Mack, and I just stuck with it.

Where you from?

Philly!

Okay, okay, so how did you start rapping? how old were you?
I started playing around with words, you now reciting rhymes probably at 13, it wasn’t until about 2007 where I started really doing in on a professional level, so id say officially 06/07

So how did you get linked up with SKE and Q the question?

Well I met Q the question in 06, I met him at the library, he was an up and coming journalist at the time working with Q publications, found out he was involved with music, I was doing music, it became perfect at the time, around a year later, we decided to built SKE (street knowledge entertainment) and we just came together and built a brand since 07

 I was listening to “no holding back”, I really like it, what was the inspiration behind it? I felt the real emotions

Yeah well the song in general is pretty much just talking bout, over coming a situation whether its relationships, negativity in your circle, or bad things going on in the city, im pretty much just letting people know its not holding me back, im from a city where its pretty hard to make it out so you know

I don’t know if you heard this before, being from philly, I could be wrong this could just be me, but has anyone ever told you that you look like Cassidy?

Yeah, I got that before, actually not recently, but on old pictures I have from college when I was at penn state, it was one picture I had where people was saying I look like Cassidy.

That’s whats up. What’s the new projects, what can we look forward to from Trel Mack in the next couple months, I mean this is my first encounter and you got a lil buzz going so, what’s the next move?  

Definitely, I mean, we have an EP “Inspired by greatness” it just came out September 4^th of last year, im still kinda fresh to the people, still getting up there, so we just creating more visuals for that project, we trynna get everything together visual wise for that project. Other than that im just trynna get more music, soon as we get it completed you know ill send yall exclusives.

Aha good lookin’ out! Saw the SKE clothing line? Any new designs coming out?

Yeah we got new designs we working on now, gonna be updated just now, but we just rolling with these 3 strong saying’s “Dreams are for real”, “Inspired by greatness” and “Know and Konker. The design’s are perfect for what the label stands for you know, a lot of positivity, I think a lot of people will embrace it and wear it because its not like tacky, its nothing negative or to blunt, in these times people love positive energy, they love being inspired, they are inspired by people around them you know.
