BIGMAY202 Coming Through with “ON My Side”

Mr. Benjamins Avatar

 Meet BigMay202, a remarkable and talented 14-year-old individual hailing from the challenging neighbourhoods of Chicago. Since a tender age, BigMay202 has been an eyewitness to the harsh realities of life, including theft, murder, and brutal gang wars. These experiences left a deep impact on him, thereby leading him to relocate to Arkansas at the tender age of 8, following a traumatic murder he witnessed.

Despite his efforts to seek a fresh start in a new environment, BigMay202 found himself facing adversity once again, as he encountered various challenges that led to his placement in juvenile detention at the age of 12. Yet, even throughout these trying times, he has discovered solace in music, turning to it as a form of therapy and a means to process and share his past experiences.

BigMay202’s music is a reflection of his authentic journey, capturing the true stories he has encountered along the way. Each verse and chorus he composes is rooted in his personal encounters, making his artistry deeply genuine and heartfelt. Through his music, he aims to not only heal himself but also shed light on the reality many individuals face, particularly those living in the trenches of Chicago.

BigMay202’s commitment to expressing his truth is both courageous and inspiring. By sharing his story through music, he demonstrates resilience and a determination to overcome the obstacles he has faced. These true stories he shares are not only a reflection of his personal experiences but also an invitation for listeners to gain a deeper understanding of the realities of life in Chicago’s toughest neighbourhoods.

Let us continue to support BigMay202 as he harnesses the power of music to heal, grow, and inspire others with his authenticity and unwavering spirit.
