Kareem “MONTAE” Clark Montae was born May 26, 1977 in the small city of Evansville, Indiana. The youngest son of two singers, he knew it was predestined for him to be a vocalist. He was a late bloomer though because he didn’t start pursuing it until the age of 15. He started his singing career with R+B music. During that time he sang with different groups and accomplished many things such as; winning the Guy Black talent search, was runner up in the Indianapolis Star Quest competition, opening act for Isaac Hayes, opening act for JOE, showcased for LaFace Records, and has won countless talent shows. After several years past by his strong passion for music suddenly turned into a strong passion to spread the word of GOD. Ever since that day he has been blessed to sing background for Donald Lawrence, Lacrecia Campbell, Nikki Ross, Rodney Bryant. He won the 2008 Inspirational Icon contest for Radio One’s 1310 The Light in Indianapolis and featured on the new artist segment for the tv show called The Gospel Of Music with Jeff Majors. He has also been blessed with the skill to write, produce, and record his own songs. It is his desire to not only produce his own projects, but to help anyone else he can to get their message heard also. Montae believes that in this business you have to stay humble and remember that it’s not about you at all, it’s about GOD. His mission is spread the word by any means necessary.
