M1llionz

Artist

Miguel Rahiece Cunningham (b. 6th February 1997), known professionally as M1llionz, is a UK Drill artist hailing from Handsworth in North West Birmingham, West Midlands. The Brum native has blown the scene away with his unique flow and vivid imagery when rapping about his experiences with selling drugs and other crimes.

In November, 2019, he released his debut track “North West” which currently sits on over 1 million views. He then went on to release other notable tracks in a short space of time such as “HDC”, “BX19” and his biggest hit, to date, “Y PREE”, which currently has over 2 million views.

M1llionz commercial breakthrough came in the form of hit-single “B1llionz”, which went on to enter the UK Top 40 Singles Charts at #39, and spent five weeks in the Top 100.

In an interview with GAFFER, M1llionz explained:

Never force it. That’s the one thing I will never do with anything in life. Because when you force it, that’s when things happen that you don’t want or need. My music is exactly the same, it’s my release. At that moment, I’m just letting everything I have out. Life is a lesson in patience.

I don’t know where my flow comes from exactly. The way I’ve crossed my sound with the Jamaican influence is different. But, it comes from within me. I’ve always had it. It’s the way I write, innit? I don’t write to beats, for one. And two, I do a thing where I miss the drop. I don’t do things in set form. I like the feel of doing it a little off. I do it because it allows me to tell a proper story (…) If you were doing stuff before that wasn’t too good and you start doing music, you see stuff that you never thought you would have seen. It opens up the world.

Alongside the release of his first single of 2021, “BADNIS”, M1llionz announced his debut EP which is set to release in 2021.
