Mauie The King Jr. represents a growing culture of independent “do it yourself” (DIY) hip-hop artists from Atlanta.

Mauie the King Jr. is set to release his debut LP in 2017 titled MOOD. MOOD encapsulates the Internet-era in song and geography – Moving (in) Only One Direction. The first single off of MOOD is titled “Dear Summer” an open letter towards the season where the streets heat up and recklessness runs rampant.
