Smash 
A.K.A. T-Mac

“I knew I was put on earth to make music. When I dropped my first CD, my goal was to get everyone in my neighborhood to get on it. When they did, I was alright.”
Blessed with this clarity of vision, an unforgettable voice, and undeniable songwriting and MC skills, Baltimore’s Smash (A.K.A. T-Mac) is poised to become one of music’s most compelling new artists.
In late 2008, Smash was on the top of the radio charts at Radio One’s 92.3 WERQ FM, with his song “A Bit Too Much for Me” from album Go T-Mac garnering over 600 spins. The song became the most requested song by a Baltimore artist ever on the station.
“A Bit Too Much for Me” made quite a bit of noise outside Baltimore as well, receiving a more than respectable number of spins in other major markets. DC’s WPGC and WKYS and Greenville, NC’s WIKS FM stations showed early and consistent support of the single and online, the song boasts more than 650,000 plays on MySpace alone.
Smash recently released I Am King as his declaration of king. Declaring himself king is a bold statement, but one which he stands firmly behind. “My consistency—that’s what makes me a king—making good music constantly.”
Performances with such artists as Lil’ Wayne, Slim Thug, Bun B, Three 6 Mafia, Mike Jones, and Bobby Valentino have given Smash broader recognition and popularity, as well as sharpened his stage skills. Smash was also a part of a 2009 high school tour with Atlantic Recording artist Young Steff, performing to enthusiastic teenage crowds.  Rhyming since middle school, Smash knew early on that a career in music was the life for him. He spent two and a half years in New York focusing on his craft, when he decided to return to his hometown. “When I was in NY, I wasn’t really in the best situation,” he recalls. “I had no friends, no females… People were just looking at me like I’m a dollar sign. That was keeping motivation for me but, when they didn’t see things happening quickly enough, it was back to square one.”
After his return to Baltimore, the inspiration of the city’s dark sound dominated his music. Back in Baltimore, Smash was embraced by a many people who started a movement called ABM (All ‘Bout Music), which lead to greater popularity in the city. 

Though never directly involved in the lifestyle of drugs, Smash’s relationship with, now-incarcerated, drug kingpin Goose, broadened his songwriting horizons. . “[Before I met Goose] I couldn’t talk about money, clothes, and slick cars because I didn’t know it. I didn’t want to sit there and lie about it and look stupid. It’s like someone rhyming about drugs who doesn’t know anything about that.” 
Prior to seeing more than the mostly stark realities he had growing up, Smash says his music was very dark. “When you’re seeing bad things--nothing but negative--it’s damn near possible to make positive music. Once I found who I was, when I found that I could make my heart rhyme,” he says. “I knew whatever was in my heart, I could make a song about it that people could relate to.” 
Smash sees clearly that where he stands in the game. “I’ve never had any doubt that I am not just going to make it, but I’m going to be the king of rap.
