2.) Strings aka Tateeze was born in Chicago, Illinois in the late 70’s, where she gained her initial vocal performance experience in the church choir beginning at the age of eight. She continued to hone her vocal skills in the performing arts high school choir. At age 18, she attended an R Kelly concert in Oklahoma City where she made her way back stage and offered an unsolicited vocal audition. Shortly thereafter, she attended a private party where R Kelly was the featured guest and gave him a sample of her rapping skills. Her determination, persistence and unquestionable vocal and rap skills resulted in R Kelly signing her to her first label deal as a professional recording artist. Tateeze (then known as “Strings”) worked in the R Kelly camp for three years where she was featured on various recordings and performed on various tours.
While in the R Kelly camp she recorded her first album with Base Records / Jive which was not released. After her three year stint with R Kelly, Strings was signed to a solo artist deal with Epic Records by Keith Sweat. During this period she had the privilege of working with artists such as Keith Sweat, Swizz Beats, Mannie Fresh, Rick James, Twista, The Hot Boys and others. She was a featured artist on the Gotham City Remix single that went to 1 on the charts. She recorded her second album while with Epic. Although the album was not released, she did execute a six week promotional tour throughout the U.S.
In 2002, Tateeze was signed to a record deal with Cash Money Records. During this period, she performed several features on all the “named” Cash Money artist projects, including the 1 single “Oh Yeah”. Tateeze toured with the roster of artists as the “first lady” of Cash Money. Due to the events surrounding Hurricane Katrina, she was unable to complete here solo project. Strings describes her rap style as “unique”, “hard-core street”, “brutally honest” and “melodic” (she sings as well).
She is also readily described by her peers as “gifted, sexy, sensual and provocative”. Although she doesn’t feel that she has been influenced by any one particular rap artist in the industry, she does acknowledge that the song, “Lodi Dodi” performed by Slick Rick and Dougie Fresh inspired her to rap. She also has much respect for the work of Biggie Smalls and Jay Z. Her favorite artist for the most part are from the R & B genre; consisting of artists such as Alisha Keys, Lauren Hill, Faith Evans and Mary J. Blige.
As a personal goal, Strings aspires to be “that” well rounded female rap artist who has the look and the talent to thoroughly entertain her audience. She is presently seeking a solo artist deal with a well established label who will embrace and support her message and presentation.

Let It Rain
Strings Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I feel a gentle summer wind
In your eyes
I can see the deep blue sky
Let it rain
Let it color all my skin
Let it rain
I wanna discover
I don't wanna make believe
Let it rain down on me
Let it rain down
Feels so divine
Only one thing on my mind
I'm alive
Let the island spirit shine
(Let it rain)
Let it rain
Let it color all my skin
Let it rain
Wash away my doubts and pain
I wanna discover
I don't wanna make believe
Let it rain down on me
Let it rain down
Let it color all my skin
Let it rain
The song "Let It Rain" by Strings speaks about being open-minded and embracing life's experiences, even those that may cause doubt or pain. The lyrics convey the message that allowing oneself to be vulnerable and open to new sensations can lead to personal growth and discovery. The reference to the rain and the wind symbolize the power of nature and the opportunity to let go of negative emotions.
The first stanza of the song sets the tone for the rest of the song. The phrase "Rain on my skin" signifies the start of the cleansing process, which is the main theme of the song. The second line "I feel a gentle summer wind" represents a complete surrender of oneself to the natural elements. In the next line, the singer notes the deep blue sky in the love interest's eyes, which serves as an inspiration for the singer to embrace the elements.
The chorus of the song urges the listener to let go and let it rain. The line "Wash away my doubts and pain" indicates that the cleansing process is a necessary part of personal growth. The lyrics also express the desire to discover and not make believe about life. The last two lines of the chorus serve as a confirmation of the importance of letting go and letting the rain do what it is supposed to do.

4 Strings remains among my favorite musical talents. Carlo and Jan are amazing musicians. I've been wishing since the late '00s for a new album! I got into them when I heard 'Into the Night (Instrumental)' back in 2004. This song, Let it Rain, reminds me of when I moved to Florida in '05. Anytime I hear 4 Strings, it takes me back to those days when I was in my early 20s and settling into my new home. To this day, I'd pay about any price to see them perform and would drive to any place in FL to see them! <3
