Recently placing in the prestigious ASCAP Writers Workshop, Tasia is building serious industry buzz as both a performer and songwriter. Now signed to Strong Link Music Group, she’s on track to take her artistry to the global stage.
In addition to her love for music, Tasia expresses her creativity through cooking and hairstyling. She’s not just chasing success—she’s creating a legacy, aiming to uplift others, expand opportunities in the industry, and take her music international.

Q. Hey everyone it’s ya boy Darren Southern Plug Brown,
here with a mega Southern Plug Exclusive. Introducing to
some, the uber talented and beautiful Tasia B. So, tell our
readers that may not be familiar with you or your work just
who you are and what it is that you do exactly.
A. My name is Shontasia Brown otherwise known as Tasia
B. I am a lyricist who raps and sings. You can check my
work out on YouTube and Instagram at 1TasiaB. I released
four songs with videos and am preparing for the release of
the first song from my upcoming Mixtape OSO (oh-so)
Carolina on 25 January 2025.
Q. So, what inspired you to start your journey as a hip hop r&b artist?
A. I come from a musically gifted family my brother is Keezo
the rapper, Uncle Sam the producer is my cousin and Mike
Smith the R&B phenom (God Bless the passed away) is
also my cousin. The death of my mother and grandmother
was the spark that lit the flame which resulted in my
embarking on the career I have been pursuing the past five
years.
Q. How and when did you coin your stage name and how
do you feel that title fits you?
A. My original stage name was my family nickname TayyB
with Tayy being short fort Shontasia and the B for my last
name Brown. Attorney Bernie Lawrence-Watkins (out of
Atlanta) searched the quote-on-quote-on-quote and she
found that the name TayB was already trademarked by a
rapper signed to Giant Records. My production company
Strong Link Music Group suggested a name change and we
have begun the trademark process for the name Tasia B my
present and final stage name.
Q. Do you have any upcoming projects or announcements
to make?
A. We are preparing for the drop of the mixtape OSO (OhSo) Carolina. The first single from this project is Buss
Down, scheduled for release on social media on 1/25/25.
The mixtape will also feature the anthem “OSO Carolina.”
My production company Strong Link will be pursuing a
major label partnership with the release of the mixtape.
Q. What would you say is the quote-on-quote secret recipe for your success?
A. Hard work, prayer, staying true to myself and my music and working with a good team.
Q. What is your favorite part about being a rap star?
A. My favorite part of what I do is performing. I enjoy seeing how people react
to my lyrics when I’m rapping or singing and it’s funny because I think
they don’t expect what they get from a female with such a small stature,
lol!
Q. Name a time where you've faced adversity in your career? And,
what impact did it have on you or your career?
A. as a female rapper I face adversity every day. Rapping is
geared mostly around men and there are only a few female rappers
who are taken seriously. I strive to be in that group of ladies who
are considered dope as fuck.
Q. Is there something in specific that you want people to know
about you or your art?
A. I want people to know I do music because I love it. Not for just
the money or the fame but because I really enjoy being creative
musically and it makes me feel good, you know all warm and fuzzy
inside. I write my own lyrics but I would like to work with some other
writers for sure. I lay my own vocals in ProTools and prepare my
songs myself in my computer before entering the studio.
Q. Okay, so its no secert you are a very attractive person. Our men
readers would like to know, are you boo'd up or what? If so spilt the
tea. Who's the lucky guy?
A. Pretty boring right now because unfortunately I am not “boo’d” up
at the moment, just concentrating on my career. However, if
the right situation presents itself I am open to the possibility
of being “boo’d up.”
Q. How do you juggle your personal life and professional life?
A. Music is pretty much totally my life right now but I do try to
balance my time with things I enjoy doing like reading,
googling things I find interesting and traveling whenever the
opportunity presents itself. “All work and no play make Jill a dull
girl”, I must make time to “Jill” off, lol J.
Q. What advice would you give those wanting to start their journey
in music?
A. Stay focused and find a good team, one that supports you and
pushes you to be better. Everyone needs help, you can’t do it
alone.
Q. Who would you say is your biggest inspiration and why?
A. Beyoncé is my biggest inspiration. I look to how she eases through performances and owns
the stage. I love her versatility and ability to move between musical genres with her songs.
Q. Ok we do this every interview! What creatives would you absolutely die to work with?
A. I would love to work with Chris Brown. He is the modern Michael Jackson. He always remains
fresh to the ears even though he’s been in the game a long time. On the rapper side the list is
long, too long to name them all but I would like to work with Lil Wayne, Lil Baby and Future. and
for my females I would say Dej Loaf, Latto, and Megan the Stallion. I wouldn’t mind Glorilla as
well.
Q. Tell our readers how they can book you and connect with you on the world wide web and on
the socials.
