Young Mak is a Hip-Hop/Rap artist who is currently a senior at Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana.  Majoring in marketing, he clearly executes the skills he has learned in the classroom by using them to exploit his music.  On April 7, 2010 after a campus-wide controversy about a man riding around campus slapping women on the “buttocks,” he quickly assembled a song about the incident.

It instantly turned into a hit record.

            The first day it received over 8,000 Youtube views and 1,000 downloads.  It even caught the attention of ABC News.  After releasing a mixtape the month before, which was featured in the Ball State University Daily News, it instantly received more attention among the student body.

But it doesn’t end there.

            Young Mak is currently in the studio working on his debut album.  He hopes to capture the hearts and minds of listeners worldwide by inspiring their everyday lives.  Speaking from life experiences, both triumphs and failures, he has already started building a strong fan base.  And the way that his career is looking now, it can only get bigger.

            One thing is for sure, Young Mak knows exactly where his career is headed.  In the music industry today, it takes a talented artist with a vision to become successful and this is exactly what Young Mak is proving to be.
