With a commanding presence that immediately attracts your attention and a distinctive sound that differentiates him from being comparable to some of today’s supposed competition, there’s no questioning why Tight has the underground and southern markets on lock. Having already serviced the south with a number of hits that are still receiving steady radio spins, approval from the streets, and have resulted in coveted headlining club performances, Atlanta’s own Tight is grinding a lot harder than most major artist.
Seated in the A room of Tight Sound Studios, you’ll find the Addicted to Money Records’ CEO and lead artist, busy at work on his next hit. With his first few singles “You Aint Fresh” and “Dump That,” becoming anthems for the clubs and the streets, his much anticipated follow up single “All Night” ft. Shawty Lo does nothing but secure Tight’s position as a hit making artist. Inspired by Hip-Hop Pioneers UGK, 2Pac, LL Cool J, and Eightball, he is an artist with more than just great music to give.
“I get my inspirations in a lot of different ways,” begins Tight as he lowers the sound of the beat pounding through the studio speakers. “Ideas come to me in the club, while I’m riding in the car, and sometimes when I’m just sitting still. It’s all about a vibe that you get but most often I write when I first wake up. That’s the best time since my mind is clear and not clouded with events that have happened already in the day.”
Born and bred in the city of Atlanta and a proud “Grady Baby,” Tight has always been the type to create his own footsteps instead of following those of others. Getting his start through his association with a number of friends who took part in the craft, he immediately and naturally took to music. Neither forced nor taught, this young emcees sound has evolved into becoming a recognized and welcomed addition the southern music scene. With mixtapes that always feature original beats and production, Tight has worked hard to craft his image and sound into an entity that speaks origination, which has already set him apart from a number of artist that beat jack and take concepts.
Having already headlined and opened for a number of major southern artist including T.I., Young Buck, Eight Ball and MJG, Lil Scrappy, and Crime Mob, Tight is on his way to becoming as big as some of the artist he has opened for. Focused on goals that include becoming a dominant fixture in the music industry, expanding his network of associates to include business’ opportunities besides entertainment, and positioning himself in a role that will allow him to open doors for other artist, Tight is a Mogul in the making and an artist with more than just music on his mind. With plans to release his new and highly anticipated mixtape, “Magnum Season: Stay Strapped,” he is more than ready for the next level.
