Tedashii

Tedashii first entered the scene in 2005 through membership in the 116 Clique, the Reach Records-affiliated collective, although recognition has come chiefly from his solo output as a Christian rapper. Praise has centered on his singular deep timbre and adaptable delivery, which have underpinned a succession of favorably received solo albums after that opening group effort.

Kingdom People marked his solo bow in 2006, with the 116 Clique following up a year later via 13 Letters. Identity Crisis brought him back to solo work in 2009 and secured his first Billboard Top 200 placement. Blacklight, the 2011 solo album, entered the Top 100 and simultaneously led the Christian Album Chart. Below Paradise, his fourth solo album, reached the Top 20 while hosting guest contributions from Andy Mineo and Britt Nicole. The EP This Time Around surfaced in 2016, and singles issued across 2017-2018 supplied part of the material for the 2019 full-length Never Fold.
