Ryan Tackman, also known as Tack, is an up-and-coming artist from Flint, Michigan, now based in Oregon. In a recent interview with Urban Noise Magazine, Tack shared his personal life, music career, and sources of inspiration.
Tack discovered his passion for music during high school when he began writing lyrics, but it wasn’t until he met his brother, Seraph the one, at 28 that he started taking music seriously and releasing his work. Tack’s main goal in the music industry is to build a fan base and support his family through his passion.
One of Tack’s proudest accomplishments is having full custody of his children. He grew up without his father and overcame the obstacle of not knowing him for his entire life when his mother found him on Facebook at the age of 28.
Tack’s music focuses on his skills as a lyricist, with meaningful and heartfelt words that resonate with his listeners. He is currently working on his album, Arrival, set to release in the next few months, with collaborations from his brother, Seraph the one, Durand the Rapper, and Mark Battles.
When asked about his dream collaborators, Tack mentioned Eminem, J Cole, and Joyner Lucas, who are all renowned lyricists and songwriters. For Tack, his motivation to pursue his dreams every day comes from his kids and mother. He believes it’s up to him to create a better future for his family.
Besides music, Tack works full time in the cannabis industry in Bend, Oregon, where he lives. He has never performed before, but with his dedication and unique perspective, it’s only a matter of time before Tack takes the stage.
