Lonnie Kimble
Rapper
Better known by his stage name Skeme, this California-born rapper has released over a dozen successful mixtapes and albums since his career officially began in 2007. He is particularly remarked for his collaborations with rappers like The Game and Dom Kennedy.
Because his father was in the military, he wasn't active in his life until he was ten years old. It was then that he began delving into hip hop and it was his father who suggested he start rapping his own rhymes.
He earned the name Skeme at the age of thirteen after his friend remarked how sly he was getting money, often using illegal methods.
His great uncle is the late legendary blues singer Howlin' Wolf. In September 2013, his son Khalil Amari was born.
In 2014 on his album Play Dirty, Stay Dirty, he released the song "Look What I Did" which featured an appearance by T.I.
