Get to Know About: Michel Pascal
Who are you Michel Pascal and what is YOGANANDANCE ?
I am a French meditation teacher, author, film director and singer, born in Paris, and living in LA. As a singer, I’ve performed at Carnegie Hall close to every year, from 2016, and also with Myron McKinley, the Music Director of the Legendary band, Earth Wind and Fire. I started to sing on stage at the age of 9, also in churches and cathedrals. At 16 years old, I became professional singer in France.
I love Hip Hop, because for me, it is a modern shamanic way to celebrate the elements. So, I try to integrate Hip Hop as an influence in my music, like in Yoganandance, the first song from Yogananda The Spiritual Musical.
I have composed, arranged, and performed this song with the words of Yogananda, the first Indian Guru who brought meditation and yoga to America. Millions of people have been inspired by Yogananda, including Gandhi, The Beatles, Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, Steve Jobs, Oprah Winfrey, Deepak Chopra, Michael Beckwith, Sister Jenna, Temple Hayes, Marianne Williamson, and Yogi Cameron.
In 1998, I met Michael Jackson in a private meeting at Musee Grevin, in Paris. He was interested to meet spiritual French artists… I was chosen. We had 45 minutes — a private, fascinating exchange, about spirituality and groove.
My passion is to combine Hip Hop and spirituality. When I composed the song Yoganandance, I felt the soul of Michael Jackson guiding me for the groove. I played all the instruments, with loops, and real parts. I started to create a loop, between Hip Hop and BeatBox. I come also from jazz music, scat, so it is my passion to create groove, and to combine loops and real vocal patterns. I did not want to quantize my voice, in order to keep the authentic inspiration as raw as possible, because for me, Hip Hop is also a music from the roots of who we are. After I wrote Yoganandance, I brought it to my friend, the incredible sound engineer producer, Esteban Calderon, in his studio in LA, and immediately we felt something very special, deep…
I presented this song to Guy Eckstine (award winning Music Producer), and he encouraged me to put it online, just to follow my intuition…
This song will close Yogananda The Musical, like a feast to celebrate The Divine Energy. More than ever, we need to meditate…

The underground hip-hop world thrives on authenticity, and MAD Mike’s latest solo release, Root of All Evil, embodies that spirit completely. Dropping under Lost Soul Productions, the project delivers a heavy dose of raw lyricism, unflinching honesty, and dark, unrelenting production that makes it one of the most striking underground albums of the year.Featuring a roster of underground mainstays including NEMS, Lex the Hex Master, Mr. Hyde, Termanology, and Roc, the album doesn’t just lean on big names. Instead, each collaboration was carefully curated to match energy, tone, and purpose.Every feature feels organic, like a natural extension of the story Mike is telling, adding depth to the overall body of work.
At the heart of Root of All Evil lies the chemistry between MAD Mike and producer C-Lance, who provides a sonic backdrop drenched in dark atmospheres and metal-inspired grit. Their creative partnership, sharpened over multiple projects, has reached new heights here. With Albert Charlemagne’s mixing and mastering at Brooklyn Dragon’s Lair tying it all together, the result is a record that’s as sharp sonically as it is lyrically devastating.Thematically, the album pushes beyond MAD Mike’s earlier Nature of the Beast. Where that project explored demons within, this one confronts them head-on, using the framework of the seven deadly sins to reflect on cycles of trauma, broken family ties, and toxic relationships. It’s an album that doesn’t shy away from pain but instead transforms it into something cathartic and empowering.What makes MAD Mike stand apart in the horror-core lane is his ability to channel vulnerability through aggression. His guttural screams and fire-forged delivery aren’t gimmicks—they’re survival. The darkness in his music isn’t for shock value, but a way to turn suffering into strength and connection, echoing the legacy of artists like Tech N9ne and Ill Bill.With Root of All Evil now out, MAD Mike shows no signs of slowing down. More solo work is already on the horizon, promising an edgier, rock-infused direction, while new Dual Diagnosis music is also on the way. For fans of underground hip-hop that demands attention, Root of All Evil is more than just an album—it’s a declaration, a release, and a reminder that the underground is still alive with voices unafraid to bare it all.“This album is about breaking toxic cycles and turning pain into power,” says Mike.With steel-forged beats from C-Lance and the razor-sharp mix from Albert Charlemagne, Root of All Evil cements MAD Mike as one of the most unflinching voices in underground hip-hop.Tracklist Highlights:
- Blasphemy (feat. Lex the Hex Master)
- Shed Blood (feat. Mr. Hyde)
- You Can Get It (feat. NEMS | prod. The Arcitype)
- Blood Squirt Fever (feat. Roc)
- Cuttin’ Da Chain (feat. Termanology)
