FOR ALL WHO DON'T KNOW HERE IS A LITTLE BACKGROUND ON THE ONE THEY CALL TNYCE. BORN IN QUEENS, NEW YORK AND RAISED IN AMITYVILLE LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK. MUSIC HAS ALWAYS BEEN A THING FOR TNYCE, HIS FATHER TYRONE "T-BONE" TAYLOR(R.I.P.) WAS A BIG UNDERGROUND D.J. BEFORE PASSING AWAY AT THE AGE OF 27. TNYCE WOULD ALWAYS LOVE LISTENING AS HIS FATHER WOULD MIX AND BLEND DIFFERENT RECORDS, HE WAS A REAL CROWD PLEASER. NYCE STARTED WRITTING MUSIC AFTER WATCHING HIS COUSIN "MADISON TAYLOR" WRITE HER RHYMES. SHE WOULD PLAY THE TRACK IN THE TAPE PLAYER, LISTEN TO THE BEAT FOR A MINTUE, THEN STOP AND WRITE THE SONG. TNYCE PICKED UP ON THAT AND THE REST WAS HISTORY, RECORDING BEGAN ONE DAY WHEN HE WAS GIVEN A MIC AND A STAND. HE WOULD SIT IN HIS ROOM FOR HOURS AND WORKED ON HIS FIRST CD. DURING THIS TIME HE WAS STILL IN HIGH SCHOOL AND WOULD PLAY HIS MUSIC ANYWHERE, IN THE CAFE', SCHOOL SHOWS, CLASS ROOMS, WHEREVER HE COULD. HE LATER BECAME KNOWN FOR HELPING OTHERS WITH THEIR MUSIC, THEY KNEW IF THEY WANTED A HOT TRACK TO GO TO TNYCE, HE WOULD COME UP WITH MANY CONCEPTS AND HOOKS FOR SONGS AND NEVER TURNED ANYONE DOWN WHO WANTED HIS HELP. RECORDING MUSIC WAS A EVERYDAY THING AND A LOT OF TIME WOULDN'T GET ANY SLEEP BECAUSE SO MUCH WAS ON HIS MIND, NEW IDEAS AND AS SOON AS IT CAME TO MIND HE HAD RECORD IT.
AFTER HIGH SCHOOL TNYCE ACTUALLY WENT TO BRIACLIFFE COLLEGE FOR GRAPHIC DESIGN, YES HE'S ALSO TALENTED IN ART. BUT A COUPLE MONTHS AFTER STARTING SCHOOL HE BEGAN TO LOSE INTEREST, HE KNEW THIS WASN'T FOR HIM. AFTER LEAVING SCHOOL HE DECIDED TO TAKE A TRIP DOWN TO GEORGIA TO SEE FAMILY, NOT KNOWING THAT HE WOULD BE MOVING TO THE SOUTH JUST A FEW WEEKS LATER.
TNYCE SAID NEW YORK AND GEORGIA ARE DEFINITLY TWO DIFFERENT PLACES BUT THE SOUTH ISN'T BAD AT ALL. THE SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY IS SO TRUE, ALL THE LOVE AND RESPECT THAT IS SHOWN IS A WONDERFUL THING.
TNYCE SAYS MUSIC IS A PASSION, SOMETHING THAT WILL ALWAYS BE WITHIN HIM. MAKING IT BIG TO HIM IS A WAY FOR HIM TO PAYBACK EVERYONE WHO HAS HELPED HIM ALONG THE WAY.
THE FUTURE IS LOOKING GOOD FOR THIS YOUNG BLACK ARTIST, KEEP ON THE LOOKOUT FOR THINGS TO COME.
