LESSON PLAN: HOW CAMBRIDGE MC MILLYZ SKIPPED HARVARD AND MIT TO GO WORLDWIDE

Written by G. VALENTINO BALL Posted September 21, 2017 Filed Under: FEATURES, Interviews, MUSIC, Non-fiction

Millyz background

“It’s two different worlds,” Millyz says about the gap between the colleges and blocks that he grew up on. “They never really mixed when I was growing up. You would see college students in Central Square, but in the actual neighborhoods you didn’t see that. It’s just different. When I was growing up, these were all zombies walking. These were million-dollar drug blocks.”
