MAF TEESKI is back and bigger than ever. A native of Chicago’s Roseland neighborhood, later relocating to the city’s South suburbs, the rapper’s first-ever song “Dirty Cup” became a local hit in 2018.

After stints of jail and house arrest nearly derailed his career, Teeski has hit a new level. His 2023 project SLICK ALMIGHTY spawned some of his biggest songs to date, including “Catch a B” and his G Herbo collab “Drench Gang.”

Armed with his signature nasally vocals and a relentless flow, his steady run of 2024 singles has made MAF Teeski one of the hottest rappers in the Midwest.
