Meet Mini Grimace, the hip-hop artist from Halifax (Sambro, Nova Scotia) who shares the story of his unique moniker & the purple emblem on his chain. Recorded at Station Six Food & Drink in Spryfield, Mini reminisces about his early days writing, recording his first song and some conversation about the golden era of Canadian hip-hop with shoutouts to legends like Choclair, Classified, Kardinal Offishall, Quake Matthews, Swollen Members, & more.
Music isn’t just a career for Mini Grimace; it’s a lifeline. Listen as he opens up about his lifelong battle with depression and anxiety, sharing a pivotal moment when his employer, Frankie Reyno, urged him into music. Grim's story illustrates the incredible power of creative expression and the importance of having supportive people who recognize the need for an outlet.
We touch on the joys and challenges of creative pursuits, local music scene’s hurdles, and how its never to late to try something new. Stay until to the end to hear his song 'Eyes Wide Open,' that speaks on the struggle of mental health. Also Follow Mini Grimace on Facebook where you be the first to hear his latest music, with a new record coming in January 2025.
