Mic Write

"The six-song record and the film brilliantly capture blackness at its most bleak, joyful and rebellious, all at once." - Okayplayer

"His latest album, O.N.U.S. Chain, is his best work yet, a stirring EP that tackles police brutality, racial injustice, and the transformation of his hometown. Sad, desperate, joyful and proud, the record and its accompanying short film cycle through a wide range of emotions, from elation to frustration to anger" - Bandcamp Daily

"Mic Write is one of the best writers in the game. Period....few spoke with the urgency, clarity, and humanity of Mic Write on ONUS Chain. His is a voice we needed in 2016, and it’s a voice we desperately want in 2017." - Assemble Sound

"O.N.U.S. Chain" is a taut, emotive collection that rallies like-minded individuals to maintain sense of self despite systemic racism seeping its way into law enforcement, education and housing." - Detroit Free Press

"Via a collage of goosebumps-giving cuts from his slept-on Onus Chain EP, Mic Write manages to drive home his views on standing up when people try to keep you down, in a way that helps us get on his level.

For over ten minutes, the Detroit MC delivers a mix of interwoven, high-end, conceptual videos that are equally powerful as his honest delivery and never lose the viewer, thanks to the constant mix of vocal and visual intensity." - BEWARE's Block

"Emcee, poet, educator, and Detroit visionary, Chace “Mic Write” Morris is unstoppable. Mic Write’s reputation as a renaissance man pales in comparison to the weight of his message and unconstrained fervor. As a slam poetry champion, Kresge literary arts recipient and a main player in the progressive hip-hop collaboration Cold Man Young, Write has tapped into the collective social conscious, delivering striking commentary on race, community, and injustice with an impervious directness by means of jaw-dropping scholarly rhyme schemes paired with beats suitable for both grinding or marching, respectively."

"Turn on Mic Write’s advanced knocker “Celibate” and you’ll find yourself going 100 mph, whether you’re flying down I-75 or kicked back on your front porch. The upstart Detroit rapper has a good sense of flow, coasting over the hyperactive future funk with ease."

- Beware - UPROXX

"If you didn’t know who the Detroit native was, his unassuming demeanor wouldn’t have necessarily indicated that he was about to get on stage and kill it. However, that’s exactly what he did."

- Gus Navarro - BonusCut.com

"[Mic Write] used the platform from H.O.M.E.S to keep developing his own voice: a brilliant, politicized, self-assured artist who’s also willing to wade into his own weariness and vulnerability"
