Dismal Niche Presents: MAVI

MAVI

In 2019, as a 20 year old, Mavi released his debut album Let The Sun Talk to widespread critical acclaim - reading like an essay, the album showcases an enigmatic, silver tongued sage, wise beyond his years. He returned in 2021 with the ruminant 5-song EP, End of The Earth featuring fan-favorites like “TIME TRAVEL” and “THOUSAND MILES”, before hitting the road on tour in the end of 2021, accompanying Jack Harlow on his headlining tour alongside Detroit bar spitter Babyface Ray.

In an era where metrics rule all, Mavi has emerged as an artist whose output remains dense and uncompromising, but still manages to maintain a sizable and mobile fanbase. As fully independent and financially self-sufficient artist, Mavi's work thus far is a living document of a gifted artist whose urgent sincerity and clever playfulness have established him as one of the best young rappers in the game.

Now, after years of reflecting, contemplating, and of course, rapping–Mavi has just delivered his highly-anticipated and enormously praised sophomore effort, Laughing So Hard It Hurts. A warm, honest and earnest record that has garnered year's end best honors from the likes of Pitchfork, NPR, Rolling Stone and more!
