Michael McCain is a Hip-Hall sensation from Los Angeles, California. He is best known by his stage name Inno Thakid. Born in South Central, Los Angeles (spending a portion of his adolescence in St, Croix, VI), Inno attended Crenshaw High School, where he became known for his ability to rap fluently in English and Spanish with rapid delivery. It is obvious that Inno receives a great deal of his island-inspiration from his grandparents, who have released several records as a Steel Drum (pan) / Calypso band. Inno's (Maternal) cousin is dancer/Youtube sensation Marquese "Nonstop" Scott.
