Birth
Imagine a young infant born with a series of birth defects
affecting the child’s mouth, lips, and face. Again, imagine
the parents of this child being told that their son will
suffer from a severe speech impediment and will struggle to
speak effectively and properly his entire life. No need to
imagine any further. Verse. Hip-hop MC. Lyrical artist.
Music
At a very young age, Mike “Verse” Mills fell in love with
hip-hop music and its accompanying culture. As he grew in
age, Verse found himself influenced more and more by the
culture in which he had immersed himself. Verse often
recounts his testimony, one filled with drugs, alcohol, and
depression to name a few.
God’s Power
Beyond this, however, he emphasizes God’s changing power in
his life and the lasting effect Christ has had in his
actions and words. Recognizing the impact of God’s grace in
his life Verse states, “God did not have to give me this
gift of music. I take it as a true blessing to be used by
God in this way. I pray that through this gift I may be able
to impact the lives of anyone willing to listen, so that
they may come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and
Savior.”
Style
Hailing from Huntsville, Texas and then relocating to
Lakeland, Florida, a strong influence of southern hip-hop
can be heard throughout Verse’s music. Heavy bass,
rapid-fire rhythms, and Christ-centered lyrics create the
palette from which Verse works, each song becoming a canvas
that paints a clear picture God’s love, mercy, and
redemption.
Influences
Musically influenced by a vast array of artists Verse
explains, “I try not to limit myself in the music I create
regarding style and genre. My music, of course, will always
be centered around God’s Word. Even at a very young age, I
was always studying different sounds and rhythms, and this
gave me a base from which to work from when I began working
on projects in a studio." He truly envisions himself as a
walking miracle transformed by God, and he will stop at
nothing to share this Gift to the world through his
music.
