Veteran MC Mic Crenshaw and MAX Attack Survivor Micah Fletcher’s New Album is a Cross-Generational Conversation About Social Change

Fletcher is 23, Crenshaw 48. The two met in 2015 through their overlapping roles as Portland poets and rappers. Crenshaw has mentored Fletcher since then. According to Crenshaw, the cross-generational similarities between the two MCs are much more profound than an affinity for hard-hitting verses and old-school back tracks. “When I was Micah’s age, I was also an anti-racist skinhead and a founding member of Anti-Racist Action. My whole approach and set of priorities socially in my subculture was about white supremacy,” he says. “Many years later, for Micah to be involved in his time in a current reflection of that—even if only circumstantially—is a powerful thing.”
