Milo is an American rapper and producer from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, currently based in Maine.
Originating in Kenosha, Wisconsin, Milo received modest popularity and a cult fanbase following the release of his first two projects, 'I Wish My Brother Rob was Here' and 'Milo Takes Baths', both of which receiving attention on blogs like The Needle Drop and mainstream publications like Forbes. The recognition led to Milo being noticed by rappers Busdriver and Open Mike Eagle, later going on his first tour with them and signing to their label, Hellfyre Club. Milo's debut studio album, 'A Toothpaste Suburb' was released in 2014.
Milo has said he came up with his name at age 16 after reading the book The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster, although in a separate interview with everydejavu he states that his name is an acronym for "maybe i like owls", in reference to his first rap name being "wise owl, himself".
