Mavi

Omavi Ammu Minder (born October 7, 1999), better known as Mavi (stylized in all caps), is an American rapper from Charlotte, North Carolina. Mavi emerged in 2014 as a member of North Carolina music collective KILLSWITCH, and later rose to prominence in 2019 with the release of his debut solo album Let the Sun Talk and his guest appearance on Earl Sweatshirt's EP Feet of Clay. His most recent album, Laughing so Hard, it Hurts, was released in 2022 and met with critical acclaim, including "Best New Music" from Pitchfork.

Mavi's style draws inspirations from Five-Percent Nation ideologies, which he named his first studio album Let the Sun Talk after. He cites rappers MF Doom and Prodigy of Mobb Deep as his main influences.

Mavi's father was a hip hop producer and a gospel quartet singer. He had a child before they passed away while he was on tour.
