No matter what is being supplied, a hustler is only as good as his word. With Miami 
serving up some of the hottest product in the rap game,
native son Emmanuel Llanos A.K.A MannyMaze stands as one of the most exciting
merchants of cool to emerge in years. Thanks to underground 
testimonials like "F.A.E" and "Ground Zero," MannyMaze' street 
swagger and authentic style has quickly made believers out 
of some the biggest underground groups in the game, from Secret Society to This Iz Dade Ent. 
In his native Miami, and throughout the south, 
MannyMaze has created nothing short of a movement. 
Now the world will get to find out what insiders have been 
buzzing about when his This Iz Dade debut, “Get it for the low” drops this summer.
Like many hustlers on the mic, rapping wasn't in MannyMaze' 
original game plan. As a student at Miami Dade College
MannyMaze was content to stack his paper from the background in his normal day to day American hustle.
"Before music I was just trying to survive in this Nation-wide recession. 
I had been in other groups, some local cats off the street, but it didn't work out," 
explains the Nineteen year old Miami native. "So I just decided to do it myself.
Ain't nobody gonna go as hard as you gonna go. I saw the bigger picture at the time. 
I have a way with words and I know how to hustle."
Having lost many things in his life-- from family, friends and time MannyMaze
had a sense of urgency about his music. So he hit the mixtape 
circuit with exclusive tracks recorded at his own studio. Soon after This Iz Dade Ent. decided to 
invest in the youngster and made him the most recent signee to the label.
"Basically, I'm a real nigga so I can relate more to a lot of cats," 
MannyMaze says of his appeal. " I don't just do music for the clubs, I do 
music for the struggle. I do music for everyday niggas, the kids 
who ain't got no sense of direction. I'm trying to restore some 
of the morals back into the game, and the street."
What sets MannyMaze' music apart is his ability to bring color 
and flash to a story that has been told so many times before. He's 
a true digital age artist who doesn't need 16 bars to develop a picture
in your head. When he snaps off a verse the image is simple enough 
for everyone to feel it instantly.
"I'm just real to myself. Just believing in what I can do. If you have 
goals it gives a nigga something to be motivated about," he says. "
We stood on the same concrete at one time. With the same mind frame. 
My stuff is to motivate them. Letting you know where I'm from and what 
I've seen so you can get something out of it."
"I did the mixtape run, but on mixtapes you can't really give people 
you," he reasons. " I think people will really relate to the album. 
I ain't come into this for no broads or a wristwatch or a car. I came 
into this shit for a spot. I'mma reality kicker. I'm not gonna tell you 
what you wanna hear because it sounds good, I'mma give it to you raw."
Setting the backdrop for his reality are producers 
Braniak of The Phat Jointz powers This Iz Dade Ent. Mixtape Volume 1’s searing single "So Far Gone" and “I got money too”. "My whole thing is I want to restore some more morals back to this street 
shit," he concludes. "Niggas listen to niggas who rap. I just wanna feed the streets point blank”
