Influences: T.C.O.(The Chosen Oneda) is one of Chicago's very own representations in Hip-Hop music. His song writing ability, lyrical content, verbal delivery and creativity are extremely impressive and unique in this day and age in Hip-Hop. T.C.O. brings a breath of fresh air over a nice variety of hard beats and good music. He can be compared to no other M.C. There can be only one T.C.O.
T.C.O's highly anticipated debut solo album "The Cork" is due to be in spring 2009. The goal is for every T.C.O. album to be a certified Hip-Hop classic. "The Cork" is the first of his catalog of classic albums. T.C.O. will have an album listening party and an album release party, times and dates for the parties to be announced. www.myspace.com/tcosnaps. www.myspace.com/tcoraps.
T.C.O started his music career as a member of the Hip-Hop group "The Individuals". The group has released two albums, "Something To Smoke To" and "Something To Smoke To 2" under "Rule The World Records". Both albums have received high praise from critics and fans alike. "The Individuals" have received 9 Marijuana Music Awards for their efforts on "Something To Smoke To" and "Something To Smoke To 2". "The Individuals" have also been featured on Showtime cable network's hit series "Weeds" season 2 and season 3. The Group is also featured in the November 2008 issue of "High Times".
T.C.O's plan is to be more than just a Hip-Hop artist. He is on a mission to be an entrepreneur, music mogul, movie star, video producer/director, magazine editor and chief and anything else he can put his mind to. He wants to be known as a positive symbol of success and he also plans to share his knowledge with the youth to help lead them on a path to success and positivity. His debut solo album "The Cork" is the first step in his journey to his dreams. He lives his off and old saying his deceased grandfather used to tell him. He would say, "Boy you got the world in a glass jar. All you gotta do is put THE CORK in it".
Look for T.C.O's debut solo album "The Cork", set for release in spring 2009. www.myspace.com/tcosnaps. www.myspace.com/tcoraps.
