Mecka is more than a simple rapper…she’s an MC! Lyricism to anniliate any rapper and rival any MC. The messages of her rhymes are as varied as she is. From her lyrical flaunting on “Prepare for Battle” or “My Time” to her reflections on life in general on “We Live” to her smooth playful, sexually charged “Bounce”. (One of the most intelligent and business minded people you’ll ever meet.) Her flow is sick, her lyrics are tight. Don’t make the mistake of putting this artist into the inadequate category of a mere hardcore rapper. She’s versatile….Don’t sleep on this MC! Introducing MECKA!!!!!
Erica M. Acklin, b.k.a. Mecka Da Mic Recka, who is now 29 years of age; has been performing for audiences since the age of 6. Mecka has been performing in school plays and talent shows as long as she can remember. Her flamboyant R&B style turned to hardcore rap almost overnight. At the age of 19 Mecka wrote her very first song (with her brother Michael Sheffield b.k.a. Draino) entitled “Mama”; written for the first person that inspired them to take their careers seriously.
Brick City is where it all began! Mecka was born in Newark, N.J. to Vanessa Acklin and James Williams. Mecka graduated from High School in 1994, then attended a 2 year university in Newark, N.J. In college Mecka majored in Psychology and her professors always encouraged her and recognized her talent through her writing. Two of Mecka’s most heartfelt poems made the Book of Poetry, two years in a row. Her professors’ were not surprised. Inspired by their praises, Mecka continued to write and perform in shows such as: Son’s Talent Show- “Brick City Talent Throw Down”- November 28, 1999 (a fundraiser for the city of Newark), a show for the HOT 97 DJ Crew at the Robert Treat Hotel- May 14th, 1999. That was still not enough for this hardcore rapper.
In 2001, Mecka met 3 musicians by the names of Wes, PK and Eddie. The 4 of them later collaborated and formed what is now called, “Infyooz”. Together a group of musicians, songwriters and producers, combined to create the most dynamic style of rhythm, mixes and vocals. After all STRENGTH comes in numbers. Mecka’s brother, Draino is also one of the producers.
In 2004, Mecka applied to the University of Phoenix, majoring in Business and Marketing. Her goal is to prove to the world that DREAMS DO COME TRUE!
