Sarah Maddack (Instagram: sarahmaddack / TikTok: SarahMaddack)
Sarah is a full-time professional "wholesome rapper" based in Nashville, TN.
She started blowing up on TikTok after a video of her rapping to a slug on her rug went viral in April-her first of many viral videos. Sarah had been a singer/songwriter for years, but didn’t realize she could rap until millions of strangers on the Internet affirmed it. As of 2021, she has amassed one million followers in less than a year.
She is known on TikTok for her ridiculous, mood lifting songs about ordinary, everyday things like slugs, kneesocks, or pineapple on pizza. All of her content is clean and family-friendly, i.e., why she calls herself a “wholesome rapper”. She runs her own business, "Gift Rapping", where she creates personalized raps for birthdays, anniversaries, or holidays.
