Baby Tate Shares The Experience Of Finding Confidence In Rap

Baby Tate stopped by for an interview. She talked about the role her deceased cousin Taylor played in developing her confidence as an artist.

“Yeah, my cousin, she used to always push me to sing,” Tate said. “One thing that she used to tell me was if you don’t use your gift, you’re going to lose it, and I used to be so annoyed because this is when we were in Jersey.”

Tate continued, “but yeah, she definitely was very instrumental in my confidence in showing my gifts and talents. I will forever keep her memory alive by continuing to do what she saw that I could do as a little baby.”

How Did “Baby Tate” Get Her Name?

Additionally, Tate discussed how she came up with the name Baby Tate.

“I started going by Young Baby Tate in 2015 or so because it was my Instagram name for the longest, she said. “My stage name at first was Tate, which is my given name, and people just kept saying, ‘Coming to the stage, Young Baby Tate.'”

Tate recently released the deluxe version of her 2020 EP “After The Rain.” This EP features appearances from Flo Milli and 6lack. Moreover, she recently announced that she would release a new EP in the spring called “Mani Pedi.”

“This year, I’m manifesting the most successful project I’ve ever dropped in life,” she said. “I’m so excited for “Mani Pedi” to drop this Spring.”

Brief History

Babies Tate (formerly Yung Baby Tate) belongs to the new generation of “Rap Girls” whose voice cannot be ignored in 2022. Besides being able to spit a bar or two, the rapper is capable of holding a note as well. In addition to Baby Tate’s famous song “I Am,” her body-positive, women-empowering singles easily qualify her as a 2022-rising-star artist.

Originally from Decatur, Georgia, Baby Tate is a singer, songwriter, and record producer. At 19, she released her first mixtape, “ROYGBIV” (2015). In 2018, Baby Tate also released “Boys,” followed by a follow-up in 2019 entitled “Girls.” Following the release of her debut EP, “After The Rain,” in 2020, she immediately made her presence felt. She then signed with Warner Records in 2021 and released her single “Pedi.”

Music is not new to Baby Tate, as she is the daughter of soul musician Dionne Farris. Tate is influenced by a multitude of individuals, including her mother. She uses her artistry, persona, and voice to put her in the right places, such as landing her first appearance on the 10th season of Love & Hip-Hop Atlanta. The artist used 2021 to extend her fanbase and release new content. She finished the year by releasing her new single, “Hot One.”
