Aside from his singing abilities, he is also a highly respected Hip Hop artist and is considered one of the best MC’s in Holland, Belgium and the Dutch Caribbean.

As a Reggae artist, Maikal X’s breakthrough single ‘The Best In You’ garnered him critical acclaim all over the globe, which resulted in his album ‘Genesis’ being distributed by the world renown Reggae label VP Records. This album also spawned the hits of ‘Bear With Me’ and ‘Here She Comes’.
