At the SpringFest, M.anifest shared the stage with American rapper Armani White who is known for his hit song ‘Billie Eilish’.
He performed some of his popular songs including ‘Suffer’, ‘Tomorrow’, ‘Game Over’, and ‘Someway Bi’.
Prior to the concert, an exclusive event with M.anifest was held on Friday, April 14, where he interacted with some select students.
He talked about his journey to becoming a musician and how his time at Macalester College and living in the Twin Cities of Saint Pauli-Minneapolis helped him build his music career.
Macalester College despite its size has produced some other famous alumni including former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan, actress Danai Gurira of ‘Black Panther’ fame, and super-agent Ari Emmanuel whose career loosely inspired the character Ari Gold in the American comedy-drama series ‘Entourage’.
