Born outside of Detroit, in Flint, Michigan, Minister Kaine (MK) found himself at an early age using, selling drugs, and involving himself in street gangs. He feared he would never escape the grim reality of his hood.
His deep desire to free himself of that environment led him to expressing his pains and struggles through his music and lyrics.
A turning point in MK's life was when the manager of "Tribe Called Quest" advised him to further pursue a career in music. But MK knew he would need more than himself to turn his life around, so he turned to spirituality. He added "Minister" in front of his street hustler name, "Kaine" to represent the dual nature of men.
MK delivers an intelligent and street savvy reflection on the often flawed world we live in, without using profanity in any of his lyrics. MK thinks profanity is the easy way out for a lyricist.
MK's music is Ghetto Street savvy, non profane, socially aware with a commercially viable delivery.
