Down for the Cause

Marc “Mayjah” Payne is a talented entertainer from Los Angeles, California. He is known for his dynamic performances that combine music, dance, and other elements of entertainment to create a memorable experience for his audiences.

Internationally acclaimed entertainer Marc “Mayjah” Payne is a Los Angeles born and based artist who creates timeless media for the culture that range from literature to lyrics, books to beats. His newest hip-hop single and its accompanying video, “Down for the Cause,” inspired by his love of the Dominican Republic, just hit the scene and like most of what he writes in his manuscripts and music, reflects life as it is, as well as how it should be.

Entering the hip-hop industry by making beats and writing songs following his exit from high school varsity sports, Payne became a versatile artist by simultaneously traveling the globe and remaining true to the streets, his first true classroom. He shares his perspective and experiences in a creative and ultra relatable way, which is why he has topped the charts in the U.S. and UK numerous times and will likely achieve that and beyond with this single.
