Success does not come without opposition.
It shapes your behavior, your character and most importantly your morals and values. Traebean has had his share of opposition in his life, but he never quit living life. His faith in God, his family and his self have propelled him through great obstacles to put him at his current position in life. While serving a stint in prison he realized that he was his only enemy and with his new found faith in GOD there were no boundaries he could not overcome. Singing is his gift and he has used it to open the world’s ear to his sound. His songs are about real issues that people of all walks of life can relate to.Traebean was born on October 30, 1981 in Tifton Georgia. In French, Tres Bien, means ‘very good’ and his mother, Linda Hammock, being an educated woman knew this and named him Traebean. He grew up in a single family household in the harshest parts of Tifton and resorted to the only thing that embraced him, the streets. His mother had to work two jobs to care for them and being the only child, the streets ultimately raised him. As he got older his stature in the streets escalated. From traveling to different cities doing business you would here familiars greet him saying “there go that Georgia Boy,†hence the nickname Georgia Boy stuck.Traebean started singing at the age 5 and as he grew his singing voice matured quickly. At a young age he became legally blind, but never gave up on his dream. When he was 12 he joined a group called the Crushing B Boys under the direction of Dr. Lou and DJ Freeze. As time went on the streets began to pull Trae into its grasp leaving singing behind. Singing became less interesting to him, because he thought the streets would not accept him because he was this phenomenal singer, but a known figure in the streets. While in prison, he found that singing was really his passion and no one could take that gift from him. His charisma and persona coupled with his rhythmic blues voice spawned a new genre of music called, R&B Street. This is a sound of rhythmic soul that has a strong street persona.One of his latest singles “On Everythang†coined him as Southern region winner of a Paramount picture contest for “How She Moves.†He winning the contest gives him the opportunity to perform against two other contestants on Wile Out Wednesday’s on 106& Park. The ultimate winner of this contest will win a recording deal with Atlantic Records and a trip to L A for the premiere of the movie “How She Moves.†His second single “Freaky†is a club banger that will be a hit in all the hot spots this summer. His third smash hit is “Trippin ft Chyna White.†It’s witty hook and its approach to men being fed up with cheating women keeps your head bobbin while Chyna White spits her arsenal over the snappy track.
Traebeans opportunities have come in abundance since he has been home. He has been a guest host for FOX 5 as an interviewer for the Atlanta American Idol contest, opened for major acts that have come to Tifton, and received rave reviews in magazine articles such as Ozone Magazine and Rollin Out. His business mindedness constantly pursues making his company, 229 Entertainment, a solid force in the music world. His era as a singer and as a business man is just beginning and he will undoubtedly go down in history as one of the greatest to have done it.
