Tedashii

Although he’s best known as a solo artist, Christian rapper Tedashii made his debut in 2005 as a member of the 116 Clique, a group of artists associated with the Reach Records label. Lauded for his distinct, deep voice and versatile flow, he has issued a string of well-received solo LPs since his inaugural release.
In 2006, he made his solo debut with the album Kingdom People, followed a year later by the 116 Clique effort 13 Letters. 2009′s Identity Crisis found him returning to his solo career and cracking Billboard’s Top 200 album chart in the process. Blacklight, Tedashii’s solo album from 2011, also made the Top 100 along with topping the magazine’s Christian Album Chart. His fourth solo effort, Below Paradise, crashed the Top 20 and featured guest spots from Andy Mineo and Britt Nicole. An EP, This Time Around, appeared in 2016, and Tedashii issued a string of singles during 2017-2018, some of them collected on the 2019 full-length Never Fold. ~ David Jeffries
