My name is Tyquan Griffin aka Ty Griff and I was born in Morristown, NJ at Morristown Memorial Hospital on July 20th, 1985 and from the day I heard my first song I’ve loved music. I knew I wanted to be an artist in the music industry honestly, around 19-20 years old; the thing that influenced me was being in the studio, from the first time I walked in a studio, I fell in love with every aspect of it. From day one, I mean the first time I stepped in a studio and starting writing music and recording I was sold, it was like an escape from the world, I loved it and haven’t looked back yet. It has instantly become my passion in life, my escape, my everything. I love it so much, I taught myself how to record myself and other people, not only to produce people, but how to make and produce beats, to mixdown songs, to master songs, to rap and take singing lessons. I’m more then a triple threat and that’s because of the passion I have for music.
Growing up I was the man of the family; there was my mother, grandmother, aunt, two little cousins and younger brother. I started paying bills around 14 and continue to do so today. I’ve never went without working at least two jobs. I’m telling you this to explain what my work ethic is like. Also I’m very motivated, ambitious and hungry, here’s a little story, about 5 years ago my mother went blind, so not only have I been taking care of her, I’ve been helping to raise my younger brother, received an associates degree in liberal arts and a B.A. in Psychology, all while working 2 full time jobs and one part time job.
Like I previously stated I am a very ambitious and hungry young man, and if giving the opportunity would put more into my music then I’m probably supposed to. If just given one chance, would take it and triple my value. And the person whom gave me this chance would not be sorry because in return they would get my all, I mean everything. My work ethic is uncanny, but I’m not a very big talker, I believe in the saying “actions speak louder then words” so what I’m saying is I could show you better then I could tell you if given the opportunity.
