The After The Rain singer was previously signed to Issa Rae’s Raedio label through Atlantic, and will now be releasing music through Warner Records.As a singer, producer, rapper, and songwriter, Baby Tate showcases diversity through her music. In her catalog, she has issued a wide range of sounds, themes, and creative visuals.“I don’t like doing things that are the same,” she explained during an interview with Billboard. “I don’t like to make the same songs twice. I’m always looking for something that makes me feel different than I’ve ever felt before.”She also discussed evolving from Yung Baby Tate to Baby Tate.“So many reasons. One, people always misspell it. It’s Y-U! [laughs]. But also, I feel like it represented an era that I don’t feel I’m in anymore. If you didn’t know who Yung Baby Tate [was], you would think, ‘Oh, this is some SoundCloud rapper. We don’t even know if it’s a woman, a man—we have no clue.’ And I’m [approaching] a point in my life where I don’t want to be represented in a small way. I’m pushing 30, so I’m not necessarily young anymore, but I will always be my mom’s baby. ‘Baby Tate,’ for me, is short, sweet, to the point. ‘Yung,’ for me, it just gives ‘rapper.’ I think ‘Baby Tate’ represents star—all music genre star. It’s just taking a leap into a new place, a new frontier, and it’s Baby Tate.”Watch Baby Tate’s video for “Pedi” above and check out her song “I Am” featuring Alabama rapper Flo Milli below:" - Vibe.com
