About • Biography
I’m Tamaté, a storyteller who turns life into music. My sound moves through R&B, Afropop, rap, and anything else that helps me tell a story, shaped by my Ghanaian roots and the worlds I’ve experienced along the way. I grew up with a speech difficulty, so music became my language, a way to connect, to feel heard, and to help others feel seen. Beyond performing, I’ve worked across different creative spaces: performing with MBAforAfrica, now CBAforAfrica, in Nigeria, composing the score for the short film Paapa’s Life Lessons, producing music for the animation A Web of Tales, and creating the theme song for the talk show Let’s Do Drinks. For me, making music is about soul, color, and honesty, finding beauty in every story and bringing it to life through sound.
