Bio
Music has been pumping through the veins of Tyquan aka Young Will for many years. A native of Chicago, IL, now residing in California, Tyquan started his musical journey at his grandmothers' church. After mastering the art of the piano at age 13, he then took on the guitar and the drums. As Tyquan continued his music journey, life and death became the harsh reality for the young star. Change is uncertain and at times even frightening; however, for Tyquan aka Young Will, change is and has always been growth, and it’s a natural, ultimately inevitable and redemptive necessity.
At the young age of 17, Tyquan underwent major kidney failure. Ultimately, having lead to a kidney transplant from his older brother Andrew. Tyquan aka Young Will has said, he has to also thank, Randy Moss and sister Chearl and Barry Hankerson (the owner and artist manager of Blackground Records). Hankerson has also given light to top producers and artists such as R.kelly and TImberland. Tyquan went to meet Hankerson at his house and it was there that Hankerson told him, "Don't let no one hold you back". Although, this setback took a major toll on the young artist’s body, it however did not corrupt his musical spirit. Due to his love and joy of music, today Tyquan has re-emerged to fulfill his dream and destiny.
Tyquan has overcome, only to evolve into a more striking individual on his freshmen album, "Where They At?", released 2006, under Rah Muzic, Rex Records, Koch Records. Tyquan says, "That album was made for old fans that remember me, to
show to them I am back". When you ask Tyquan, "What he wants people to hear when they listen to "Where They At?" The multi-talented artist answers, “My versatility. I want them to hear all of the musical influences from Hip-Hop to R&B, Latin, Jazz and Soulful music. I want them to hear the talent, and understand me as a real artist.
Having worked with artists such as E-40, Levetti, Coolie-O, and Producers R-Vell (Something for the People), Billy Moss (Return of the Mac), and Effrem (Do G’s go to Heaven?) as well as many others, shows and proves that he is well established and just as capable; to people
who knew him back then as Young Will, in the music industry. Tyquan aka Youngwill is currently working on his sophomore album, "Love from a Beast", due to drop in 2008.
When you ask Tyquan, "What do his former fans and new fans have to look forward to, on this album?"
