Chicago, IL, USA

Chicago rapper Tae Jetz is certainly from that school of hard knocks. Born as Dionte Harris, he grew up On the West Side of Chicago (Pulaski & Wilcox). The oldest of three children, Tae Jetz saw a bit of everything growing up, witnessing all kinds of violence and drug use. In spite of his rough upbringing, Tae still has a deep love for his city and would never trade Chicago for anything. He is looking to show that there is more to Chicago than the nickname “Chiraq” and the stereotypes of murder. Always musically in tune since a child listening to the likes of Ludacris, T.I. & Future, Tae says Michael Jackson was a huge influence suprsingly; based on the boundaries crossed and risks taken on all levels in the game. Aside from music, Tae speaks on a particular family member who he says inspired him: “I admire my uncle Fu because I feel like he was the glue to our family and held things down when other people couldn’t. “ Tae Jetz is ready to take his music to the next level.
