Born in Grenada, Mississippi but adopted by Memphis, Mac Tree learned the art of hustling and surviving and maneuvering through the cold, dark and grimy streets of Bluff City and surrounding areas. As a young trapper, he hustled with a purpose and a different mindset than his adolescent counterparts. The purpose was to provide for his family and take his mother out of the hood. The different mindset was not to get trapped, in the trap, like many of his close friends, associates and street connects. Furthermore, the youngster with an old soul and many talents such as drawing and painting, enjoyed playing football and basketball. However, it was his gift of putting words together in the form of freestyle raps that ultimately became Mac Tree’s favorite form of expression.
Mac Tree’s freestyles increased his popularity in the streets while reaching legendary hustler status that ultimately landed him in spending a substantial amount of time in Mississippi’s infamous prison, Parchman Farm. After being released in 2015, Mac Tree launched his own independent record label, Mind of Billionaires Entertainment, LLC. which helped him transition from a former trapper to a legit business owner with an entrepreneurial spirit comparison to the likes of Jay Z, Master P, Gucci Mane, 2Chainz, Kevin “Coach K” Lee, Pierre “P” Thomas and the late Young Dolph.
In 2022, Mac Tree released his highly anticipated “I’m Not A Role Model” EP. With star studded production from multi-platinum producers, Drumma Boy on “It’s Up” and ATL Jacob on “Winning,” the EP featured new music from Mac Tree. As an independent artist, Mac Tree expanded his boundaries by accompanying each song with 3D animated videos which were released exclusively on his official YouTube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/mactreetv. The EP served as the follow-up to Mac Tree’s highly successful “Out the Blue 2” mixtape which was released in 2021 and featured Freebandz’ own mega superstar Future on the massive regional hit “Expensive.” Nappy Boy Entertainment’s multi-platinum producer and artist, T-Pain and Quality Control Music’s Crunkstar, Duke Deuce were also featured on the critically acclaimed mixtape.
Last Summer, Mac Tree’s true-life story and billionaire mindset captured the attention of one of the most respected and popular podcasters, Tha Sharp One which led to him appearing on Adam22’s No Jumper. Known around the industry for keeping it real, Tha Sharp One has been a fan of Mac Tree for quite some time. Tha Sharp One stated, “Mac Tree is cut from a different cloth. He’s a real trap star. A real entrepreneur. A real hustler who literally got it out of the Mississippi mud for real. He’s one of my favorite rappers, so I had to get him on The Sharp Tank, No Jumper, the sharpest and the coolest podcast in the world.”
With another successful year of independency behind him, Mac Tree is solely focused on elevating his Minds of Billionaires brand in 2023. “Put That Sh** On” is now available on all digital streaming platforms.
