McKinley Phipps, Jr. (born July 30, 1977),[1] better known simply as Mac, is an Americanrapper and songwriter from New Orleans' 3rd Ward. Mac began rapping as a child, releasing his debut album The Lyrical Midget at the age of 13 in 1990, under the stage name Lil Mac. Mac would eventually sign with Master P's No Limit Records and would grow to be one of the most critically acclaimed artists on the label, both as a solo rapper and as a member of the super group 504 Boyz. Mac released 2 solo albums and 1 album as part of the 504 Boyz on No Limit, including 1998’s Shell Shocked, which peaked at #11 on the US Billboard 200.
In 2001, Mac was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to 30 years in prison. He is currently serving his sentence at the Elayn Hunt Correctional Center in Louisiana. Phipps maintains his innocence, and his parents have campaigned to re-open the investigation into his case for many years.[2]
Career[edit]
Mac was born McKinley Phipps, Jr. to Sheila Phipps and McKinley Phipps, Sr. in New Orleans, Louisiana, the oldest of their six children.[3] He began his music career in 1990, and by the time he was 13 years old, under the name 'Lil Mac', he released his debut album, The Lyrical Midget. The album was one of the earliest commercial hip-hop albums to come out of New Orleans, and featured production from New Orleans producer Mannie Fresh.
Late 1990s: No Limit Records, Shell Shocked, and World War III[edit]
Lil Mac would later join the Psychoward, a New Orleans group consisting of more than 28 MCs. Psychoward is known in New Orleans for having a sound that separates itself from the usual Bounce music and gangster/hustler lyrics that typifies most of the New Orleans rap scene, rather focusing on lyricism and a sound which could be described as a 'New Orleans Wu-Tang Clan'. This made them favorites of local hip hop fans who often prefer this style to other local acts. In 1997, the group released their debut album, www.psychoward.com to acclaim, with many naming Lil Mac as the standout artist.
After rejecting an offer to move to New York and sign with Def Jam Records, Lil Mac changed his name to simply Mac and signed with Master P's No Limit Records.[4] He toured with No Limit throughout the U.S. and Europe, and made guest appearances on many other artists' albums before releasing his own. He was featured on Master P's Ghetto D, Mystikal's Unpredictable, and Mia X's Unlady Like, among others. The next year in 1998, Mac released his second solo album and first with No Limit, Shell Shocked. The album is Mac's most commercially successful to date, reaching #11 on the Billboard 200.[5] Mac again was featured on many other No Limit artist's releases that year. In 1999, he released his second album on the label, World War III. While it was still on the label, this release differed from usual No Limit releases in that it was not exclusively produced by the production team Beats by the Pound, and featured only three guest appearances from major No Limit names Master P, C-Murder, and Silkk the Shocker.[6] The album did not fare as well commercially as his first No Limit release, peaking at #44 on the Billboard 200. Mac's musical style differed from many other Southern hip hop artists in this period, and he often displayed a level of lyrical complexity that has come to be associated with East Coast hip hop.[7]
504 Boyz and later releases[edit]
World War III would be Mac's last album released on No Limit and his last solo album to date, as he would be sentenced to a 30-year prison term for manslaughter after 19 year old Barron C. Victor, Jr. died from a gunshot wound in a Louisiana nightclub in 2001. In 2000, he joined the group 504 Boyz, whose name was a reference to the area code 504. The group was a collective of other No Limit rappers such as Master P, Silkk the Shocker, and C-Murder. Mac was with the group for one album, 2000's Goodfellas, which went gold and reached #2 on the Billboard 200. He was featured prominently on the group's hit single 'Wobble Wobble', rapping the first verse and the chorus. The song reached #17 on the Billboard Hot 100.
In 2007, while Mac was still serving his prison term, No Limit released the album The Lost Tapes, which consisted of unreleased material Mac recorded with the label.
On May 31, 2012, DJ 5150 released the mixtape Uptown Veterans' which is a compilation of Mac's greatest hits.
Personal life[edit]
Phipp’s son, McKinley Green, was born in 2000
Legal issues[edit]
On February 21, 2000, Phipps was scheduled to perform at Slidell, Louisiana nightclub Club Mercedes, but a fight broke out before the show that resulted in Phipps allegedly shooting 19-year-old Barron C Victor, Jr. after Victor attempted to break up the fight. Phipps was arrested and charged with second-degree murder,[8] and was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to thirty years to life in prison on September 21, 2001.[9] He is currently serving his sentence at the Elayn Hunt Correctional Center in Louisiana. Thomas Williams confessed to the murder of Baron Victor Jr but his confession did no good.
In December 2014, Northwestern University's Medill Justice Project (MJP), in partnership with The Lens, published the results of a three-month investigation of Phipps' conviction, revealing that a key eyewitness at his trial gave his private investigator an affidavit in 2013 that stated she was coerced into identifying Phipps as the shooter because of investigators' threats to charge her.[10] Following Medill's investigation, David Lohr of The Huffington Post published the results of a four-month review of Phipps' conviction,[11] further revealing that four other witnesses to the shooting told the publication that they also were threatened, intimidated or outright ignored by investigators. Phipps' family has since obtained affidavits from many of the individuals in an effort to get him a new trial.[12]
On March 25, 2015, rapper Killer Mike told students at Dillard University in New Orleans that it was unacceptable for authorities to use rap lyrics in the prosecution of Phipps: 'If we let this stand, what you're going to see is that tool is going to be used to wipe out an entire potential generation of [artists] out of our community.'[13]
Phipps has applied for the Louisiana governor’s clemency in 2016, asking to be released from prison for time served. In the petition sent to the Louisiana Board of Pardons and Parole he seeks a commutation due to a 'wrongful conviction and excessive sentence', as 'evidence developed over the last two years' which includes, among other things, findings from MJP’s investigation.[14]

Begging your pardon then. We definitely did include the original arcade Turtles during our reconciliation process; you should see the documents! That track is the reason Miki Higashino was included in composers.
StarDragonJPon 2014-04-24 19:27:09
Yeah that's what I was talking about.

Mac Shell Shocked Full Album
I think he meant the original TMNT arcade game, which is represented in Washudoll's remix.
José the Bronx Ricanon 2014-04-19 09:36:24
It's represented only by virtue of having its music reprogrammed for use in the 16-bit titles. Same music, yes, but the platforms for the original source tunes arranged for the album were SNES and Genesis only.
StarDragonJPon 2014-04-15 16:41:12
Ya'll forgot to put Ninja Turtles Arcade on the list of represented games
KyleJCrbon 2014-04-14 23:09:56
Hey folks, a bit of an announcement here that I will be appearing live on 8bitX this Wednesday at 9PM Eastern to chat up the album with Will Co. Should be an awesome time!
KyleJCrbon 2014-04-14 18:48:38 My thoughts went something like:
'Cool! I hope Night Riders sounds good!'
'God I hope Night Riders is good'
'PLEASE BE GOOD'
Move files from download folder mac. 'Holy shit, this is good!'
Thanks guys
And that was the day starly396 learned to never doubt Prince uf Darkness.

After this, I think it's time to pull some stuff off the back burner that I've been prepping for awhile. I'm excited!
BaconProcurementon 2014-04-11 07:50:30
I absolutely love this album! 3 After listening to it on repeat at work, I still can't decide which track I like the best.
This album is rad, tubular, radical, awesome, um.. outrageous, gnarly, groovy, funky, what other 90's term am I missing.. *shrugs*
Anyway, amazing job putting this together KyleJCrb! What's next for you now? Possibly, one of the NES TMNT titles? Or will you direct something crazy like Battletoads? Whatever it may be I will look forward to it.
OverClocked PodCaston 2014-04-10 19:16:38
This album is intense-- especially that artwork! A few of the tracks blew me away with sheer energy. That VikingGuitar is one mean shredder (wordplay hahaha). My favorite of the bunch might have been the collaboration between WillRock and Sixto Sounds, two ReMixers who never fail to be radical.
Really digging the thematic consistency-- it definitely felt like a cohesive album with a vision of rock-- even if it did start to blend together a little without more variety. But hey, I can't complain when so many songs are winners!
Oh, and thank you, Washudoll, for naming your contribution 'Duh, Who Put the Lights Out?!'
Mega Sackmanon 2014-04-09 19:43:36
