When he broke through with the hit singles “Westside” and “Better Days,” TQ quickly established himself as an R&B singer with a rapper’s musical sensibility. Subsequent work with Lil Wayne, Juvenile, Baby and the Cash Money Records roster solidified the Compton, California singer as a creative force who could work with a variety of A-List collaborators.
TQ feels as though he’s been able to carve out a lane for himself because of his position in the musical realm. “There’s a certain amount of people that look at rap and hip-hop itself as kind of being a bit too harsh on the ears for them to really dive into,” he says. “I think that I kind of bridge that gap with the type of R&B that I’ve done. I can look at R&B music before I came out and I can look at R&B music today and just see that I made a mark because of the love I get from cats in the streets that are doing it now.”

TQ has written pretty much every song he’s ever released. He’s also written songs with and for a long list of artists including Lil Wayne, NSYNC, Dru Hill, BONE Thugz, Too Short, Tha Dogg Pound, Jagged Edge, and more. During his time at Cash Money Records he wrote songs on classic albums such as the Big Tymerz “HoodRich,” Juvenile’s “Project English,” and Baby’s “The Birdman.” TQ continues to write and collaborate on various music, TV, and film projects, and welcomes collaborators to get in touch at the booking link below.
