Reflecting on her early experiences, McRae shared in a May interview, “Getting to train in LA for two and a half months and doing that at just twelve years old, the whole experience was incredible. Being in front of cameras and doing interviews, it was really good exposure at a young age… I remember feeling like ‘I need to do something to make sure I’m still challenging myself.’ So, I started posting weekly videos of myself dancing and choreographing.”
As the anticipation builds for her album “Think Later,” set to release on 12/8 via RCA, Tate McRae’s journey from dance prodigy to a rising music sensation continues to captivate audiences worldwide. Stay tuned for more on her evolving story.
