Papoose however, is a true MC, in every essence. Since then he has been well respected in the underground street circuit for a long period of time now, and has survived the trappings and politics of the rap industry today, which uses gimmicks as well as fake street and jail images in order to sell records, and many true Hip Hop fans believe that this destroys the essence of what a true mc really is. Inspired by rap legends Rakim, Kool G Rap and Big Daddy Kane, Papoose took his first shots at following in those rappers footsteps at the young age of 11. He was given his alias he uses in rap today (Papoose) by his grandmother, because of his childhood resemblance to a Native American child.
Papoose was born Shamele Mackie on Decemin the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, USA, the same area that rap legends Jay-Z and The Notorious B.I.G. » Related Artists: 2Pac / Tupac Shakur, Nas
