Seeing how he has a new project in the works, Maino is back in the spotlight. He is a big figure on the New York hip hop scene, as he is a native of Brooklyn. Because of this, Maino has not had to travel far to make his rounds with the media in promotion of his new music, coming up soon.
A year ago, Maino was in the headlines for an entirely different reason. This was back when Trinidad James dissed New York City during a performance in the city. After his fellow Brooklynite, Papoose decided to handle Kendrick Lamar, Maino decided to step up and defend the city against Trinidad James.
When Maino stopped by Hot 97, speaking to Ebro, Peter Rosenberg, and Laura Stylez, he reflected on these situations. First, Maino spoke on his income and how that is working out for him, before touching on the Trinidad James situation. Then, he went on to discuss the allegations against him.
