Marco Efraín Masís Fernández was born on August 9, 1989, in San Juan, Puerto Rico, to a Puerto Rican father and Dominican mother, María Fernández. He has a younger brother, Michael Bryan, who is also a record producer, who goes by the stage name "Mvsis". Masís affirmed in an interview that he used to hear Juan Luis Guerra in his childhood, and that over time he began taking interest in classic rock and rap, with additional inspiration from R&B artists and producers like Timbaland and the Neptunes. After meeting with producer Nely el Arma Secreta, whom he met at a local church, Masís gave duo Luny Tunes a demo he made. Luny liked the demo and signed Masís to his team. When Masís was 15, Nely loaned him FL Studio XXL for producing. Masís practiced for a year until he learned. To test Tainy's potential, Luny had him work on a song. Luny ended up liking the song and used it for his album, Mas Flow 2. Tainy and Luny produced the Los Benjamins album, producing 15 of the tracks. He has worked as a producer with Wisin & Yandel, Janet Jackson, Jennifer Lopez, Paris Hilton, Wise and many more.

Tainy is the definition of our motto, he has been pushing the sounds of Latin music since the beginning of his legendary career."
