Marcus Yates on 2014



Marcus Yates takes a moment to talk with Lettey about life, 2014, and what's ahead for his fans. 


Lettey: "How do you feel about reaching 1000 likes on your Facebook page? 

Marcus: "It's great. That's a 1000 people who pushed like! That's amazing. I hope it keeps growing and growing, and I'm growing. That's a thousand people who support and I'm excited about that."

Lettey: "What do you have planned for 2014?" 

Marcus: "What do I have planned? I'm so in the moment right now I don't know, but the things I've been working on are like, doing a video and helping around the community and stuff. I'm wanting to do more in the community." 

Lettey: "How will you be ringing in the New Year this year?"

Marcus: "With my cousin. We'll be having a good time. We are going to say goodbye to 2013 and Hello to 2014." 

Lettey: "Do you make any new years resolutions?" 

Marcus: "I don't really wanna make resolutions, I just wanna, like, continue and building upon what I already did and making that be great." 

Lettey: "Okay, tell us more about this show you having coming up with Krizz Kaliko in Denver on Jan 18th 2014." 

Marcus: "Yeah yeah! Krizz and I are going to be in Denver CO Jan 18th six days after my Birthday. We gonna go all out for turning 22. 21 was a great year." 


Lettey: " How are the sales of Dark Taupe Schemata doing?"

Marcus: "Dark Taupe Schemata sales are going well. Many friends have told me they really liked the album and played it all the way through, enjoying it all. I want it not to stop there but continuously grow." 


Lettey: "Will there be any possibility for merchandise that fans can purchase in 2014?" 

Marcus: "I've talked to some people who have deals to print shirts off. I'm got someone helping me work on that. So we are working on that." 

Lettey: "What are your thoughts on the Kansas City Chiefs this year?"

Marcus: "I think they are doing great. I really want them to do better on defense. As far as the Chiefs if they combine their hot offense with their hot defense, watch out!" 


Lettey: "Who do you see in the Super Bowl this year?"

Marcus: "I see nobody but the Chiefs, I don't even see another team just the Chiefs. If the Chiefs win the super bowl every body's gonna be wearing red." 

Lettey: "Do you have any words for your fans as we move into 2014?"

Marcus: "Hey, I know I haven't tweeted in a while and I have't been online in a while, but I'm still here and I'm still being faulty and hopefully I'm not faulty."

So stay tuned for more information, more shows, and more interviews after the New Year!

Vinyl or Digital Download?

The question of the hour is : Will the new album Dark Taupe Schemata be only a digital download or will vinyl be made? 













The answer to this question will depend on the fans. Do you want digital? Do you want Vinyl? If you want there to be a chance for a choice I need fan input. If you would purchase and pick up a vinyl, send an in basket message to Lettanina@gmail.com with the subject line: VINYL KICKS ASS. Otherwise the digital download only will be released on Nov 12th, tomorrow. So let me hear from the fans!
