Shawn Mims (born March 22, 1981), better known as Mims, is an American hip hop recording artist from New York City, New York. He is perhaps best known for his commercial debut single "This Is Why I'm Hot", which peaked at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. Following the release of his hit single, Mims' debut album, Music Is My Savior, was released in March 2007.
Born into a Jamaican-American family in the Washington Heights neighborhood of Manhattan, Shawn Mims grew up influenced by the rappers just south of him, in Harlem. Despite the fact that he lost both parents by the time he was 13, Mims focused on music (his mother had given him his first set of DJ equipment shortly before she died) and school to keep himself out of trouble. Though he briefly attended community college, Mims decided if he truly wanted to make it as a rapper he needed to drop out, a move that paid off career-wise: he was soon featured on the song "Love Em All" by Canadian group Baby Blue Soundcrew, which was nominated for Best Video in the 2001 Much Music Awards.

Plot: The rapture is coming... in five days. How will you spend your time? If you are Mims, the martini-drinking playboy hero of Six Days in the Life of Mims, you will probably spend it as you would any other six days of your life: pursuing pleasure, friendship, and the perfect Cuban sandwich. When they learn of the impending rapture from a street corner prophet, Mims and his friends decide to prepare for the rapture in the best way they know how: by planning a party to celebrate the Earth's deliverance. As the party approaches, Mims continues to live a playboy's life, aided by his faithful butler Starky and all the while stalked by Dr. Suzanne Click, an evil academic who is bent on his destruction. With a cast of characters that includes a Viking, a hillbilly, a hobo, and a bounty hunter, Six Days in the Life of Mims is an offbeat comedy featuring a hero who can look adversity squarely in the eye and declare, "I'll drink to that!"
