Biography
Shawn Maurice Mims (born March 22, 1981), known mononymously as Mims (backronym for Music Is My Savior; stylized as MIMS), is an American rapper. He is best known for his 2006 single "This Is Why I'm Hot", which peaked atop the Billboard Hot 100. Its success led him to sign with Capitol Records, who issued the song as the lead single from his debut studio album, Music Is My Savior (2007). His second album, Guilt (2009), was preceded by the single "Move (If You Wanna)", his third and final Billboard Hot 100 entry.
