MKIT RAIN facts / profile
MKIT RAIN is a Los Angeles based hip hop label established in January 2016.
MKIT RAIN artists create hip hop songs influenced by both their Korean and American nationalities.
Nafla and Loopy created the label and then asked Bloo and Owen to join.
His real name is Nicholas Choi.
He was born on February 28 1992.

He has an eyebrow piercing.
He has collaborated with artists like Babylon, Dumbfoundead, Dynamic Duo and Woo Tae Woon.
He would like to collaborate with Frank Ocean.
He went to university with Killagramz. They used to exchange messages through Facebook.
If he wasn’t in MKIT Rain, he would like to be signed in 1llionaire.
He lives in the studio. (I’m not sure about this and even if it was, it is from an interview in 2016, so it might have changed).
Nafla was involved in a diss with CJamm. Neil (who was in the same crew as him, Young Creation) dissed CJamm and somehow Nafla got involved. It was nothing serious and there weren’t any bad feelings afterwards.
Nafla has a lot of respect for Just Music, specially for Swings and Vasco.

He had his first solo concert on May 20 2017.
He likes Drake and Kendrick Lamar.
He originally wanted to be a producer, but when he was in LA he though why not be a rapper, so he started working on in and dropped his first mixtape.
He said he wanted a cool name and a name that people can remember easily. The name “Loopy” came first from a character’s name, Loopy / Luffy from One Piece, who has an incredible punch, which can be related to Loopy’s rap which is powerful; but it also came from the English word “looping”. With “looping” he wants to say that his flow will make your head spin.
He lives with his family. (This is from an interview in 2016, so it might have changed).
After he released “King Loopy” MyunDo dissed him, Loopy responded with “Me”, MyunDo dropped “L for Loser” and, after a while, they got over it and the story ended.
E-Sens is one of his role-models.
