Bio

A fast growing name in the underground circuit, Tay Edwards is becoming the go-to guy for creative lyricism and an unorthodox delivery and flow unlike any other artist. Born Tavian Edwards, the rapper/song writer/producer, attributes his musical upbringing to his late mother, Tina Marie Edwards' wishes, to graduate and do what you love. Constantly traveling with his family state to state with their gospel quartet, he strived to locate his purpose in the group but fell short each try. He stumbled over a hip-hop album by Outkast, titled 'Aquemini' and discovered an entirely new form of music. He continued to sneak in "secular" albums ranging from Ludacris and Tupac to Eminem and A Tribe Called Quest, respecting almost any and everyone who could turn life into lyrics. Years later he took to the microphone to make the same respected music as the ones to come before him. Putting lyricism before bling he promised to never get complacent and settle for the fame. Every real lyricist works to be a great artist praying for longevity. He also promises to never curse in his verses in respect of his family's image in the church, but still not bearing any comparison to Will Smith or Christian rappers; he still delivers uncensored topics and dialogue. Born and raised in Greenville, North Carolina, he took a break from college to pursue music. In 2010, he teamed up with duo Daagard & Morane to release "Go Ahead" a hip-hop and house fused track on Germany based label, Uptunes. While releasing random tracks across the web, he took a minor hiatus after the passing of his father but returned after seeing that music was his only outlet. Late 2013, he connected with Modana, to release "Dance the Night Away' under Planet Punk Music began gaining commercial success and creating a larger buzz. He finalized his mixtape titled, 'Method.OV.Distraxn' in which many are considering an album in it's own right. Not intimidated to work with anyone regardless of their preference of music, he stands determined to be considered as one of the best and refuses to be trapped in a classification, forever growing in his craft. Soon enough, the world will know of Tay Edwards.
