Michael Herbert Greene Jr.

Michael Herbert Greene Jr. was born on May 2, 1993, in Atlanta, Georgia, at Crawford Long. He departed this life on July 4, 2026, leaving behind a legacy of love, creativity, and cherished memories.

From an early age, Michael possessed a vibrant imagination and an undeniable love for music. As a young teenager, he discovered his true passion in songwriting, music production, and recording. Influenced by artists such as OutKast, A Tribe Called Quest, Mos Def, Jay-Z, Nas, Tupac Shakur, The Notorious B.I.G., Drake, and Big Sean. Michael spent countless hours honing his craft. Music became more than a hobby—it became his voice, his outlet, and his purpose.

Although his musical career had not yet fully blossomed, Michael never lost sight of his dream. He continued creating, writing, recording, and producing music because he genuinely loved the art. His creativity, determination, and authenticity inspired those closest to him, and his passion will forever be reflected in the music and memories he leaves behind.

Those who knew Michael will remember his warm smile, kind heart, quick wit, and generous spirit. He had a unique ability to connect with others through conversation, laughter, and creativity. Above all, he loved his family deeply and treasured the relationships that shaped his life.

Michael leaves to cherish his precious memory his beloved daughter, Aleah Greene; his loving mother, Michelle Fraser-Trussell; his father, Michael Herbert Greene Sr.; his maternal grandparents, Joyce and Isaac Martin Jr.; his uncles, Isaac Martin III and Rawle Fraser; and his aunt Nicole Fraser his sisters, Mikayla Greene and Aurielle Greene; Raina Polite, Qui’Andrea Young, Destinee Smith-Coleman, Celeste Neal, Ce’Deja Neal, his brothers, Kayson Greene, Joseph Polite II and Isaiah Polite; D’Andre Smith, and Jawon Adams, his paternal grandmother, Catherine Davis Joyce; his aunt, Jennifer Greene; his cousins, Garrison Dallam, Jacey Greene, Grant Dallam; along with a host of extended family members, lifelong friends, collaborators, and loved ones who will forever cherish his memory. Michael is preceded in death by his uncle J Christopher Greene.

Though Michael’s time with us was far too brief, the love he shared, the lives he touched, and the music he created will continue to echo in the hearts of those who knew him. His legacy is not measured by fame, but by the kindness he showed, the dreams he pursued, and the lasting impact he made on everyone blessed to know him.

“A brilliant mind. A beautiful soul. Forever in our hearts.”
