Show Lineup

Genesis Renji

(Milwaukee WI)
Genre: Hip-Hop

Genesis Renji is a Maryland-born, Milwaukee-based emcee and engineer, and is the co-founder of the Milwaukee based label House of Renji. With deep roots in spoken word poetry and a flair for theatrics, Renji’s music is brought to life through his eccentric delivery and variety of flows, as well as his unforgettable performances.

The 26 year old has most recently finished his Gemini Season series, releasing a song a day for the 31 day span of the Gemini zodiac calendar. His latest project, Lucid, a collab EP with Oconomowoc producer Cade Zube (pronounced zoo-bee) was released in March.

Maal Himself

(Milwaukee)
Genre: Hip-Hop

Maal Himself is the on stage name of Milwaukee, WI emcee Maal Napoleon. This moniker entails his wordsmith and songwriter abilities. He is a great mixture of musical sensibility and exploratory creativeness. Highly energetic, confident, and thoughtful describes his style. Maal covers everything from everyday struggles and personal vices to racial inequalities. Past guest appearances and freestyles solidifies him as a devout and strong lyricist, with jaw dropping metaphors.. His membership in the Lupe Fiasco backed Society of Spoken Arts Guild further speaks to his rather sharp pen and witty style. However, lately Maal’s roots in songwriting and producing have been shining through. Maal is a bit of anomaly and doesn’t release tons of music, but when he does it doesn’t disappoint. We look forward to more releases from this Milwaukee based artist. ~ KT Miller

Maal’s solo and group projects have been featured by 2DopeBoyz, AllHipHop.com, Okayplayer, Sway’s Universe, Pursuit of Dopeness, The Mad Bloggas, ThisIs50.com and VladTV. He has opened for acts such as EmC, Mickey Factz, B.O.B., Pharoahe Monch, Rockie Fresh, and recently Amine alongside brother Genesis Renji.
