What do you know about Peter Map Walker......?
How well do you know the guy in the photo, Peter Map Walker.....? What can you say about him....well if you don't know much, here are some things about Peter Map Walker that you really don't know or you've never taken note of and some of the reasons why He Is Tough..
Peter Map Walker possesses the talent and musical passion to turn heads in the entertainment/music industry with his charisma, astounding studio resume, and his street credibility all obtained at such a young age. He began rapping at the age of twelve participating in schoolyard battles and ciphers, MAP spent his early years in Gowon Estate, Lagos, where he was oppressed and intimidated by his childhood friends and neighboring children but he never gave up on being who he had always wanted to be.... In 1998 he and his parent moved to Gemade Estate, where he went through hell.......living life to the fullest (from hand to mouth), enjoying it however it comes (finding fun in himself), sometime staying for days without food, not because he did not want to eat but because his parent could not provide for him and his 3 siblings then..
His dad lost his job and mother also had financial issues, resulting them selling most of their properties and cars just to survive, but He never gave up on his dreams neither did he ever mixed his emotions with his feelings.
He is a real Lagos boy to say because he has been in Lagos from the day of birth till date. His passion for rapping helped keep him focused. He continued to work on his rapping/managing skills and formed a rap group called T2K Crew in 2005 with friend Johnny Nash and Chi byk. Two years later MAP met HL who helped him improve on his rapping skill.
In 2010 MAP Shomex, Ladida, 5th Element, L.A and Simon and they worked together at Gikro Records. In 2011 he (MAP) did his very first studio recording titled Swag, featuring Shomex and Simon, followed with a mix tape titled Gowon Estate in 2012 featuring Timi, Shomex and Ladida which got him a nominated for the MIA Awards in USA.
Through thick and thin MAP stood his ground and fought for his future, never allowing circumstances deprive him of his right.
MAP's Keeps the Hits Coming with the release of the song "Ko Ma Ro" in 2013, MAP the rapper has secured his spot as a popular rap artist. Then followed She Don’t Want to Love, A Man Like Me, and Gbesunmomi.
2014 MAP came out with his first gospel single LIFT JESUS HIGHER to glorify God for his blessing on the earth, then followed
H.C.I.M.....2015 Map came up with another single titled Me Love, and two powerful collaborations with Hood Made Gang from South Africa and Da-lil-one from USA. 2016 MAP got the opportunity to meet with STARS from TOPs Records. The likes of G-wilz (the rapper who is lyrically licensed to kill), Kul-GP, Dolzi (the King of Melody), Kasi (the June 12 girl) and others.
MAP also did other freestyles just to keep the flow coming and he is still on the GAME
As side hustle he Barb's hair and loves to teach, as he had also taught in schools, all to put money in his pocket and food on his table.
It has never been easy on him, sometimes he works for free not just for the passion but sometimes the people will either decide not to pay him because of his humble and quiet nature, or just to test his patience. Yet he did not give up on his dreams and passion but rather gets stronger with time.
Recently he worked with a famous Nigerian Actress and Musician, where he learnt so much about public relationship, social media, content creating, web designing and many more.

MAP Says...
"I'm a product of Rap/hip-hop. That's all I listen to what I grew up on, besides what my parents had going on in the house. It's definitely hip-hop first and everything else is just distant." Lol that’s for when I was growing up but now…..
God first then any other thing follows….
