Skizzy Mars Biography

Myles Mills (born June 8, 1993),[2] better known by his stage name Skizzy Mars, is an American rapper, songwriter, and record producer from Harlem, New York. Mills was born and raised in Harlem, New York to his father, a therapist, and his mother, who operated two daycare centers in Manhattan. He attended an all-boys school St. Bernard's School during his elementary years and later graduated from the Browning School. Mills attended Union College to originally pursue a sports journalism major, but he dropped out ten weeks after starting classes to begin his rapping career. Throughout high school, Skiz made a few raps here and there, although he never thought they would take him anywhere. However, as a high school senior, he realized that rap was what he wanted to pursue. He threw away his dreams of becoming a sports analyst and even his college diploma to write songs. With heavily supportive parents, Skizzy was able to hone his skills without giving up on his dreams. After releasing a few projects, including American Psycho EP, Phases, and Pace, he debuted his first major EP. The Red Balloon Project was dropped in 2015, and it received a fair amount of buzz on the internet, even hitting #35 on the Billboard 200. It gave him a few minor hits such as “Be Lazy,” and “Do You There.” In 2016, Skizzy delivered his debut studio album, Alone Together, with appearances from Jojo, Olivver The Kid, and more. This album gave off a more emotional feel, with tracks like “Girl On A Train” and “Comb.” Recently, Mars announced his next album, are you OK, which was released in 2018, using a mini-documentary. He explained this album as “a more honest and raw description of my life.” http://skizzymars.com https://www.facebook.com/SkizzyMars https://twitter.com/SkizzyMars http://instagram.com/skizzymars https://www.youtube.com/user/SkizzyMars https://soundcloud.com/skizzymars
