ποΈ Meet Yo Slime β The Philly-Born Artist Turning Pain Into Poetry
"Yo Slime (Ikeem Stewart), rising Philly rapper, drops 'Mamaβs Prayers' β a street anthem with soul."
π From Savannah Roots to Philly Streets
Yo Slime was born inΒ Savannah, Georgia, but his story was shaped in theΒ gritty streets of Philadelphia, where he spent all his teenage years grinding to survive. βPhilly made me,β he says. βThatβs where I learned how to hustle, where I made my first thousand, where I became who I am.β
π΅ Music Was Always in the Car β Even When His Dad Wasnβt
Music wasnβt just a hobby for Yo Slime β it was a lifeline. βMy dad used to play music on every road trip. Even when he left, the music stayed. Thatβs what stuck with me,β he explains. βHe used to write songs too, and I guess that gene didnβt skip me. For me, music became therapy.β
