Ty Talaban
Ty Talaban was born and raised in Brooklyn, which gave foundation to his swaggy persona. The natural New Yorker charisma made him a standout when he moved to Texas by age 9. Ty Talaban had to adjust quickly to the culture shock of southern life. His prior lifestyle, environment, and style of speech created a challenge when making acquaintances, but the universal language of music smoothed over any doubts. Ty Talaban’s musical interest began while watching his father create reggae songs as a child. “He got me in tune. I didn't think I had a voice then”. Along with inspiration from artists like Lil Wayne, who wasn’t afraid to mesh genre’s on record, Ty Talaban found the push he needed to put himself out there as an artist. The rap rockstar was an opening act for artists such as Da Baby, Trippie Redd, Lil Baby, Stunna 4 Vegas, and 10K Cash Dancer. However, those high accolades did not slow down Ty Talaban’s work ethic. “Dollars” possess heavy moshpit energy. The boasty lyrics and rugged delivery will heighten your adrenaline. In Ty Talaban’s world, he does what he wants. His unapologetic presence gives his listeners an invite to his lifestyle.“I want to be remembered by my character”. “Dollars” is a lively record with trippy visuals that need to be played with the volume at its maximum. Whether “Dollars” is being played in a club or a kickback, it is guaranteed to amp up the vibe.

Hardbody Shard — Move Calculated, Let Them Do The Math
What’s your name and where are you from? My name is Hardbody Shard and I’m from Birmingham, Alabama. When I started taking music serious, like writing, recording, and releasing music, my first artist name was Reason. By the time I released my second project, “Parapenelia,” I had partnered with one of my best friends growing up and another close friend. Together, we formed a brotherhood called BTMG, also the name of my first single off of that project, produced by 30 Roc of Eardrummers. This was around the first time I had ever heard of “Reason” from TDE(Top Dog Entertainment), so I knew I had to do something about my name at the time. So once I released “Parapenelia” is when I took the BTMG and added it to Reason just to separate myself from him. After about a year, we kinda grew apart on the business end so I decided to rebrand and change my name once again. December 25th, 2018 I dropped “Fie On Me”(Directed by ALsoHD Films) (prod. by LamarcusJ and Prezzley P) under my current artist name, Hardbody Shard. I believe that change was something I needed. It was fresh and I knew there wasn’t another artist out there with the same alias.
