“What helped me keep pushing, is never being satisfied.” Minneapolis, MN, you may not see celebrities walking around, but it’s birthed many legends like Prince, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, and Morris Day. Another legend would soon be added to the list…When Rahki was 2 years old, he was at church moving around, and dancing up and down. A preacher came from another city that day, saw Rahki, and said “That child right there is going to be blessed with music. PUT HIM ON THE DRUMS!” Rahki’s father was a minister, his mother was a choir singer, and Rahki grew up playing drums in every church choir, every day of the week. Church and Gospel Music was his life. But as time passed, Rahki became curious about the world outside of church, and being restricted by his parents only made that curiosity stronger. We naturally want what we can’t have, and for Rahki, that became Hip-Hop. As high school approached, he became more rebellious, and started heading down the wrong path very fast. In the midst of getting into trouble, grades dropping, and transitioning from schools, Rahki was also losing sight of music. We all have dreams, and things in life that we feel we are just “meant to do”. And sometimes all we need to do to thrive, is to change our environment. For Rahki, that change would lead him to reconnecting with music, as he would go from becoming a rapper in one of Minneapolis’ most notable groups, to betting on his dream, and moving to LA to become a Grammy award winning producer. But this isn’t just a success story. This is about letting your path guide you, and following your gut. This is about asking yourself “How can I get better?”. This isn’t about the money or the fame, but about testing your limits and reaching your greatest potential. Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Rahki. #MamaWeMadeIt
