ThugLifeMMB at Mala Vida
Emerging Atlanta artist ThugLifeMMB. Thug’s music can easily fall under the umbrellas of “trap” and even “trap soul”speaking for the people in survival mode, experiencing struggle, turmoil and trauma. Organically amassing traction, the Atlanta-native has been garnering an audience since his start in 2020. A natural creator of quality content, ThugLifeMMB didn’t fully aspire to be an artist initially, and was pushed by his brothers to start telling his unique story in another light. Fast-forward to a couple of years later, ThugLifeMMB effortlessly gives listeners an authentic Atlanta sound, but both his persona and life story are truly one of a kind.
ThugLifeMMB pulled his courage to record by listening to and studying acts like Lil Boosie, Juice WRLD, Tupac, and his late close friend, Trouble MMB. Each artist named is pretty transparent about their stories, and this translates to Thug’s discography currently. Open about his experiences with incarceration, pill addiction, mental health and grief, the Atlanta-native keeps everything raw, relatable and real for his audience. Moving through the airwaves with three concrete projects, ThugLifeMMB definitely gives his supporters
