Terrance Edwards-Rountree stage name is Terry E$Q pronounced Terry Esquire.
Terrance is Born and raised in New Haven, CT from the neighborhood called “The Ville” to a single parent, Dana Edwards of the same city and to slain father Steven Rountree also of New Haven by way of Brooklyn, New York. Starting his musical journey sophomore year of high school with his friends with a group called Young Soldierz he helped put CT on notice that there were some amazing sounds coming from his hometown.
As his ear got better and his sound expanded he set out to do music solo to sharpen his craft and to develop his own sound he likes to call it his #NewTrapSwing which derives from a mixture of production and genres mainly from the legendary Teddy Riley & R-Kelly mixed with Kanye’s futuristic audio output mixed with trap drums, melodic harmonies, and a hip-hop vibrato.
Musical influences coming from Maxwell,Tyrese, Dmx, Jay-Z, Usher, and Jodeci. Terry has been in New York for about 5yrs working meeting up and working with up and coming artist and comedians such as Mr. Commodore & Danny Duces.
Networking and crafting his sound with Grammy-nominated producer Andrew “Broadway” Williams of the production group YoBo currently signed to BMG a publishing house associated with Sony Records.
He has helped Terry push to the limits of his talent to bring out the best of his songwriting and vocals not only as his engineer, producer but also as a musical mentor akin to a snoop and dre dynamic, who’re credits go as far as Kat Dahlia, (MTV Making The Band) Donnie Klang, NYC native Liana Banks and the group The ChainSmokers.
Terry E$Q is back with a lethal dose of motivation in his latest single “Commas”. Despite a world filled with beautiful women, and temptation Terry E$Q only worries is not getting to the money. The stellar production and lyrics reflect that of a mature artist with his own sound and lane. Terry E$Q provides a classy hook, that provides a mode of focus when it comes to strategizing to get to the paper.
