Tate Kobang

Joshua Dai’Quan Goods[1] (born April 28, 1992), known professionally as Tate Kobang, is an American rapper, songwriter and record producer.

In 2013, his mother and father died suddenly within months of each other, making him responsible for his 8 younger siblings at age 21, prompting him to continue music at a more serious level to provide for his family.

With heavy media attention and national focus on Baltimore at this time, Kobang released the song to bring a sense of happiness and pride to the city.

[4][5] Shortly after its release, "Bank Rolls" (Remix) gained the attention of Lyor Cohen's and Baltimore native Kevin Liles's 300 Entertainment.

In January 2016, he appeared on the label's 13-city Young Hustle Tour, which featured acts such as Rich the Kid, T-Wayne, TK N Cash, and Rejjie Snow.

[8][9] Silent Waves, Kobang's second mixtape, was presented by DTLR and Under Armour and hosted by DJ Flow, with just one feature from fellow Baltimore artist Young Moose.

[citation needed] Kobang's "Bank Rolls" (Remix) was ranked number 87 on Pitchfork's list of the 100 Best Tracks of 2015, as well as on NPR Music's Favorite Songs of 2015 in the hip hop genre.
