Tyrese’s multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated music career ascent began as a Watts, California 16-year-old native with a million dollar smile on the back of a bus in the worldwide Coca-Cola commercial. The hip-hop disc is comprised of guest appearances by The Game, Snoop Dogg, Kurupt, Method Man, Too $hort and Manni Fresh with production by Manni Fresh, Scott Storch, All Star and various members from Tyrese’s Headquarter Entertainment in-house production team The Frontline BoyZ. Kelly (“Hurry Up,” “Signs of Love Makin’ Part II”), Brian Michael Cox (“Gotta Get You”), Lil’ Jon (“Turn Ya Out”), Eric Dawkins and Tony Dixon (“Morning After,” “Better Than Sex,”) and Trick Stewart (“Lights On”), resulting in a bevy of great songs that cater to Tyrese’s R&B fanbase. Three new singles herald the project: the melodic ballad “One,” produced by the Underdogs the sensual “Turn Ya Out” featuring Lil’ Jon and the club-banging rap track “Get It In.” This unique set garnered a 3 1/2-star review in USA Today which cites that “Gibson holds his own as an MC,” while The Washington Times states that Alter Ego is “a noteworthy accomplishment.” On Alter Ego’s R&B disc, Tyrese joins forces with producers The Underdogs (“One,” “Better To Know”), R. 2000 Watts arrived three years later and I Wanna Go There appeared a year after that, but it wasnt until late 2006 that he released his fourth album, Alter Ego, a double-disc set split between R&B and rap material.
#Tyrese alter ego album songs full
A concept two years in the making, Tyrese is the first male R&B artist to introduce a rapping alter ego (Black-Ty) and release a groundbreaking double disc - one disc full of R&B songs, while the other is a collection of rap tracks featuring Black-Ty. His big break came when he starred in a commercial for Coca-Cola, followed shortly in 1998 by his self-titled debut album for RCA. Last week, Tyrese’s Alter Ego was #10 on iTunes R&B/Soul chart and VH1.com listed the album as one of “December Must-Hear Albums,” while the video for the hit single “One” was #9 on VH1 Soul. This marks the highest selling debut week of Tyrese’s illustrious recording career! Alter Ego is Tyrese’s first debut on the Rap Album chart, second Top 5 debut on the R&B Album chart and his fourth album in the Top 10 on the R&B Album chart.

On disc two, Black-Ty is an indistinguishable amalgam of at least a dozen big-name rappers (some of whom even guest here), but the disc itself happens to be more distinct than the first because it is so bad, with many of the guests on the verge of self-parody as Black-Ty serves up verse after verse of clumsy, inarticulate, and relentlessly over-the-top rhymes. With rare exception, disc one is indistinct seduction material, and little of it compares to either of Tyrese's first two albums. On the back of the package, a stone-faced Tyrese puts on a pair of sunglasses and transforms into (dun-dun-dun) " Black-Ty (aka Tyrese)," indicating that disc two is very different from disc one. On the front of the package, a stone-faced Tyrese is " Tyrese (aka Black-Ty)," and this is meant to indicate that disc one offers more of Tyrese's sensitive (if swaggering) R&B. Whether you've been a fan of Tyrese the VJ, Tyrese the model, Tyrese the actor, Tyrese the singer, or any combination thereof, one glance at the two-disc Alter Ego is likely to provoke a question or two.
