Marc Terrence Tate,"Flynstone" on SoundBetter

Dedicated to the craft of songwriting. Writing, producing and mixing for 20+ years.

I'm a native of Chicago, where I come from a talented family of entertainers and entrepreneurs. In my family tree there's; Larenz Tate ( Love Jones), Janelle Monáe (Dirty Computer) and producer, London On The Track. I'm skilled at what I do and I can write your lyrics, hooks or produce and mix your tracks or EP. I have a catalog I can refer to, of fully mixed beats ready for vocals if that's more convenient. R&B, pop and rap music are all my strong suits and usually what's playing when I'm driving around the city.
