"Mark Carson – Good Vibes (Video)"

Mark Carson is getting ready to release his mixtape “Good Vibes.” Mark brings in a style of music that is influenced by 90’s Hip-Hop and mixed with a more modern touch. There’s a ton of South Carolina talent out there that Mark will be bringing to his project. He believes that this project can for sure be the push they need for their contributions to the culture. We can look forward to receiving that project sometime in late fall. Sampling Stevie Wonder’s “Ribbon In The Sky,” the video was shot days before the Confederate Flag was taken down at the State House. As the piano’s smoothly run through the background, watch Mark’s music video for “Good Vibes.” - Craig T Lee


"Mark Carson - meet a new hot & young rapper and engineer"

Mark Carson might only be 17 years old, but his lyrical skills show a level of maturity that could be compared to more experienced and seasoned performers in the world of hip-hop.
As a rapper and audio engineer, Mark has more control over many different aspects of the music he creates, from the song-writing to the sound production and beat-making. The Columbia SC artist is also conquering the local live scene, as he recently opened for T.I. on 3/26/2016.
His songs bridge the gaps between the modern punch of contemporary productions and the grit and warmth of the golden age of hip-hop, reminding of great performers the likes of Jay Z, Kendrick Lamar, Timbaland or Drake, just to mention but a few. Mark’s lyricism is direct, spontaneous and on-point, and it feels really in tune with the beat and the sheer energy behind the music.

South Carolina emcee Mark Carson is here to make some noise and it all starts with his single “Taxi”.
