Информация об исполнителе
Growing up in Peabody Massachusetts, Marc Predka, a.k.a. Tha Trademarc was inspired by the sounds of hip-hop music. In regards to his hip-hop moniker, Predka states simply, "When you trademark something you make it official and one of a kind, that's exactly what I intend to do with my music and my writing."
A hip-hop music fan all of his life, Tha Trademarc was inspired to become a writer and MC by artists such as Rakim, NWA, The Doc, EPMD, BDP, KRS-One, Bumpy Knuckles, Gang Starr, De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest and many others.
Tha Trademarc's love of the hip-hop culture impressed his first cousin John Cena as well. Trademarc would get all the newest releases and he and his cousin, who was more like a brother, would listen and study the records for hours. Trademarc knew just what he wanted to do and that was to become an MC. Trademarc has been on the mic for sixteen years writing lyrics and then recording them in basements.
The passion that Tha Trademarc and John Cena had for hip-hop eventually paid off when they wrote and recorded a track that became Cena's theme song. The song was well received by WWE officials, and more importanrly, embraced by WWE fans. Their talent and chemistry could not be denied and eventually Trademarc and Cena landed a recording deal with Columbia Records.
Trademarc is every bit as laid back and smooth in everyday life as he is on the microphone. Behind his quiet demeanor lies the heart of a true lyricist and writer. "I write whenever I get inspired," says Trademarc. "Sometimes I'm glued to my notebook, other times I let it breathe for a week." Writing is at the heart of any hip-hop artist and Tha Trademarc takes pride in what he describes as not going for the obvious. "I like to spit rhymes that people have to think about. Rhymes that people need to listen to 2 or 3 times and finally say 'that was one of the hottest lines I've heard.'"
Cena and Tha Trademarc started strong with YOU CAN'T SEE ME, spending more than four months on the Billboard Top 200 Chart. And now Tha Trademarc is using this as a base to secure his place in the hip-hop game. He is currently putting together a mixtape and writing for a follow up album.
With the great success of YOU CAN'T SEE ME, Tha Trademarc has been asked what he sees for himself in the future. The answer is not quite as simple as many would believe, "I see myself traveling the world, possibly settling in isolation, maybe a Buddhist monastary; just disappearing. Then one day I'll come back and drop some serious rhymes on everybody."
