Ter�ell Shahid Bio

I. The Artist
Ter�ell the artist is interesting because his sound is urban. As a singer the skills are nice but more importantly his music is socially conscious and profound lyrically. Love songs are surely present; however; songs about going out on the town, social awareness and struggle round out this body of work entitled �Chocolate City� (Suga� Free Edition). This musical void is simply waiting to be filled.

In the spirit of Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield, Rick James, Prince and others, Ter�ell Shahid comes off as a present day Shaft of music. Shahid is Aramaic (The language of Christ) and means �Social Witness� or � Martyr�.

II. The Writer
Ter�ell the writer is a machine. Since the age of 17, Ter�ell has been creating (sample free) songs. He writes, produces, plays, performs, mixes, and masters his own material as well as other artists and companies material. He has 5 underground CD�s full of songs under his belt and has hundreds of songs and tracks that have not yet been heard or used. He creates everything himself, in his own studio and therefore owns his masters directly and indirectly. Ter�ell has worked on Rock projects, Sca, Hiphop, Rap, R&B, Neo-Soul, Drum&bass, and the list goes on. (You get the idea.)

Ter�ell plays Saxaphone, Drums, Keys, Bass, Flute, and Percussion. Ter�ell has the creative ability to easily pump out a completed song every day, if necessary.

III. Affiliations
Manager - Ron Kelly 713-292-7272
Lawyer - Brad Stein

There are some investors and new production team/labels who are interested in assisting with this CD, if needed. For example, Carnival Beats, who wrote tracks for Paul Wall, Slim Thug, Mike Jones, and Bunn B.

Writers such as Jah Born (Eryka Badu�s On&On) and Darryl Anthony (Az Yet�s Last Night) appear on Ter�ell Shahid�s Album.

All rappers were �Works for hire�.

IV. Targets
Ter�ell targets the same audiences as John Legend, Anthony Hamilton, R Kelly, Outkast, Cee Lo, Alycia Keys, Eryka Badu, D� Angelo, Snoop Dogg, Mos Def, Kanye West and Common just to give you a clear picture of the �Cross marketing� affects.

Please consider the possibilities of having an artist/singer/song writer/producer like Ter�ell Shahid on your team.

God bless you and Thank You for your time.
