The “Bounce” music video is set in the streets of Texas where MLKMN was raised and met the track’s producer El Dusty, who is featured alongside him in the video. The creative beat El Dusty crafted for “Bounce” is infused with smooth trumpet sounds that add a lively Latin flare to pair perfectly with MLKMN’s distinctive flow.

Victor González, President of UMLE stated, "Its versatility, which enables it to work with different genres, makes it unique. MLKMN is a trendsetter to be followed closely with a level of talent that could go very far.”

MLKMN has also shared the stage with Tyler the Creator, Theophilus London and A$AP Ferg to name a few. 2014 is off to a good start for MLKMN and his forthcoming “MLKSTAPE” release will further prove his talents to end the year on a prosperous note.
