Nametag was raised in Detroit, Michigan, where the hip hop scene is vibrant and full of energy. It was through this environment that Nametag began to develop his skills. His name stands for having your own identity. This is his mark and it lets the people know who he is. The 'Tag part is from a metaphor from how grafitti artists tag their names when putting their artwork on display.
He knew he was headed on the right road when he landed his first official studio recording alongside Black Milk on a track titled "Real Life" on a Slum Village compilation titled Dirty District Vo.l 1 (2002). From that point forward, he started gaining recognition by making guest appearances on releases such as B.R. Gunna's "Dirty District Vol. 2 (2003), Sound of the City (2005), Broken Wax (2007) Popular Demand (2007), The Set Up (2008) and so on. He began releasing his own projects in 2007. Now with a new era of Michigan hip hop music expanding, Nametag is dead center in its growth and riding the wave to the top of the line.
"The Name Is Tag" was released in June, 2010 and is available through iTunes, Amazon, Rhapsody Bandcamp, and most digital stores for music.
Previous projects include:
Ahead Of The Basics Mixtape (2007)
