As the TrackBoyz; Mark “Tarboy” Williams and Joe “Capo” Kent, managed by Jeremy Geffen Entertainment, have produced and engineered several hip-hop singles and albums. Williams started his career as a performer and was also eking an existence recording and selling background tracks when he was introduced to Kent in St. Louisin 1997, and they have been producing beats ever since.
Williams and Kent first started gaining notoriety producing for Nelly (Cornell Haynes, Jr.) when his album “Nellyville” rose to the top of the Billboard charts in 2002. Nelly was one of the first rappers from St. Louis to break out nationally at the time, and the TrackBoyz were major contributors to his success.
Tarboy and Capo have gone on to work with such artists as D12, Sean P, J-Kwon, Nappy Roots, and many others with Jeremy Geffen Entertainment. Soon after Tarboy and Capo took J-Kwon under their wing they started promoting his single “Tipsy”, which took the urban markets by storm and climbed nearly to the topof the Billboard charts in 2004. Today the TrackBoyz continue to sign and develop new talent.
