Baltimore, MD — Born and raised in the heart of Baltimore, Micheal Harris, known to the streets and stage as City Da King, embodies the soul of a survivor and the spirit of a storyteller. His journey from neighborhood cyphers to performing alongside rap giants like Future, Jeezy, and Dru Hill is a testament to resilience, authenticity, and the transformative power of music.

Raised by a single mother battling addiction but blessed with an incredible singing voice, City Da King was surrounded by both struggle and inspiration. “My mom’s voice was the first music I ever heard,” he recalls. “Even through her pain, she showed me how powerful music could be.”
Growing up with four siblings in one of Baltimore’s toughest neighborhoods, City Da King found himself drawn to the streets for survival—but it was there he also found his purpose. In local cyphers and block parties, his ability to rhyme about real life—raw, unfiltered, and vivid—earned him respect and recognition. “The first time I heard the crowd go ‘ohhhhh,’ I knew this was it,” he says.
A Sound Born from Reality
City Da King’s music is a blend of soul, hardcore, and inspiration—a sound that reflects pain but pushes toward progress. His lyrics cut deep, echoing the voice of those who live between hope and hardship. Every bar carries truth, every verse a story, every hook a prayer for better days.
His latest work continues to bridge emotion and energy, offering fans not just music, but motivation. Whether he’s shutting down highways in Baltimore for a music video or performing alongside industry legends, City Da King remains grounded in authenticity—never chasing trends, only telling truths.

Looking Ahead
Beyond music, City Da King is expanding his creative empire. His upcoming ventures include:
Launching a clothing line that represents strength, survival, and style.
Transitioning into acting and directing, using storytelling to reach new audiences.
Building his brand globally, staying independent and true to his vision.
