MackAttak

MackAttak, also known as Colin Stephens or today as Collen Root, is a 16-year-old boy born January 7, 2004, in Las Vegas, Nevada. He is one of 13 siblings and, in the summer of 2019, had his name changed from Colin Stephens to Collen Root when he was "adopted" by the Root family. In February 2020, it was proven by the school district and law that there never was a legal signing for the change of name or adoption. Collen continued to carry on the name for use rather than reverting back to his given birth name. Collen is known locally in El Dorado Hills, California, for his rapping career that carried on from 2018–2020; however, since January 2020, he has not been creating any music. He was also known in Los Angeles, where he lived in Woodland Hills, as a top-ranked boxer. He climbed the ranks of a local gym, fighting afternoons and even doing night shows. He rapped under the name MackAttak from 2018 to 2019 but, in 2020, took on the new name of XClue. XClue was signed to WSHH (World Star Hip-Hop) alongside Real1 or Enzo Amore in 2019. He has collaborated with Enzo and many others, such as Post Malone and Too Short. Collen is lesser known for his comedy routines that he used to do in L.A. in comedy clubs in the city. Collen was said to have stopped doing comedy as he felt his jokes were beginning to be overused and unfunny. In his childhood, Collen played nearly all sports, including Basketball, Baseball, Soccer, Wrestling, Cricket, Football, and Volleyball. In soccer, he played as Goalie for years until a head injury stopped him, where he then played mid-field for the rest of his seasons. Collen stands at 6'0" and weighs 125 pounds. In September of 2019, Collen was charged with evading police, resisting arrest, noise complaints, and vandalism, where he and six others were at Skunk Canyon bridge spray painting and partying. There were signs that the teens had been drinking vodka and smoking marijuana; however, Collen could not be tested for being under the influence as he had evaded the police for nearly 3 months. Later, in February 2020, Collen was also almost arrested for being misidentified as his twin brother Connor, who had been suspected as dead since 2010, where Collen, Conor, Cole, and Jeremy Stephens had all been in a car crash. There were no bodies found in the car, but Collen was standing above it as it lay burning in a ditch near the road. Cole was found a month later living with Collen in their father's house. Jeremy had been found living in Las Vegas as a bartender, although soon after, he had gone off the grid again and still has not been found. Connor was the only one not found after the crash until recently, where he was caught attempting to steal a car in Folsom, CA. Connor had escaped police long enough for them to attempt to arrest Collen the next day, making a headline in the Daily El Dorado newspaper. Collen now co-owns 2004 Boards, a skateboarding and apparel company, with his stepbrother Zack Root. Collen, in the summer of 2019, also took part in SSP, a church work camp in Chiloquin, Oregon, where he worked on a railroad cleaning the displays and tracks. Collen has worked many jobs, including railroad worker, crossing guard, store clerk, cashier, graphic designer, journalist, and now clothing designer.
