TYRESE
Just entering his twenties, J Records recording artist,
actor and model TYRESE (Roman Pearce) has already accomplished
more than many people do the entire length of their careers.
Born and raised in Watts, California,
a section of South Central Los Angeles, Tyrese discovered
his love of music
at an early age and released his self-titled debut album
at 19. In January 2000, he received an American Music Award
for “Favorite Soul and R&B New Artist.”
In addition to his zest for music, he has also found success
in the acting and modeling worlds, having appeared in commercials
and guest spots on television series, as well as his exclusive
contract with Guess?.
Tyrese took his career to another level when he made his
feature film debut as the star of Baby Boy, directed by John
Singleton.
Tyrese recently released his third
album (on J Records), featuring the first single “How You Gonna Act Like
That,” the biggest urban record of his career. Featuring
both solo and collaborative writing efforts, Tyrese’s
music melds together the essence of hip-hop and R&B with
great energy and style. His dynamic, upbeat hits have appeared
on the Blue Streak and Best Man soundtracks, and his debut
album reached platinum status. His sophomore album, 2000
WATTS (RCA), was released in May, 2001.
Tyrese was formerly one of MTV’s
favorite VJs. His acting roles have included guest-starring
appearances in
the long-running television series Moesha, Martin and Hanging
With Mr. Cooper. Additionally, the actor appeared in a popular,
global television commercial for Coca-Cola (the kid in headphones
singing on the bus), which put him in the spotlight and helped
him gain international recognition.
One of the most sought after African-American male models
in the nation, Tyrese has been featured in numerous print
and television ad campaigns for such top brands as Tommy
Hilfiger. As a top male model, he had an exclusive sponsorship
with Guess?, which included everything from advertising and
promotions to special guest appearances and performances.
In addition to appearances and performing, Tyrese is a dedicated
community activist, focusing his efforts on assisting inner
city youth. He founded a non-profit organization, the Tyrese
Gibson Watts Foundation, whose ultimate goal is to build
youth community centers in the city of Watts.
In the summer of 2000, Tyrese started his own annual charity
event, Watts Day, a fundraising performance by a group of
artists giving back to the community in which they were raised.
