Magno (also known as Magnificent) is a rapper who started out working with Mike Jones from the Swishahouse (Houston, Texas). He created underground rap music, releasing a mixtape of freestyles called Magno: The Collection Plate. Magno also released an album with Mike Jones called 1st Round Draft Picks. Magno left Swishahouse following a financial dispute in which Mike Jones demanded at least 80 percent of the profit from the concerts because he felt that he was the more popular rapper. That would have left Magno with twenty percent, an amount that wasn’t enough to sustain him financially. Magno felt that they had both contributed equally to 1st Round Draft Picks, and that he was entitled to an equal portion of the profits, but when Mike Jones refused to take anything less than eighty percent Magno opted to leave Swishahouse and form his own label called Wild Life records. He then released a mixtape called Magno: The New Print. Magno is featured on several underground and mixtape albums. |
