“LAUREN: When did you first get that feeling that your music career was gaining momentum?
MARC SMITH: My best guess I would have to say is when I produced a song along with the late Grady Wilkins MD for The Whispers called "Driving Me Crazy" a while back. My first thought was wow me producing The Whispers (there's more to this story).

“Marc Smith
He's a new kind of R&B / soul artist - thoughtful, multi-talented and confident. With his debut radio single ‘Total Love Thang’ running up the charts, Marc Smith is in a unique position to re-define the genre.
Generally speaking, R&B / soul artists are highly dependent on vocal talent and tight production to succeed in the market, and Marc Smith is well-positioned to excel in this regard. Perhaps that's why critics had this to say about the R&B / soul artist's award-winning work: ‘As complex as love itself, Marc Smith's album, 'The Love Thang', is filled with funky and soulful hits with his unwavering faith in love as the glue that binds it all together.’ Now that his new radio single ‘Total Love Thang’ is catching fire on radio, it's clear that we'll be hearing a lot more of him. Reporter Lauren Scott recently caught up with Marc Smith to learn more about this intriguing new R&B / soul artist and what inspires him to create his music.”
