Biography
As his love for music continued to flourish Tony T began collect instruments and even some sound equipment of his own. He came to know his production skills by recording different instruments on a cassette tape from his keyboard with a karaoke machine. Recording each instrument’s sound on several different cassettes he would go back and compose them together one by one. Tony would take his mixes to his Uncle Derrick Ward’s, aka Uncle Buck, studio in Woodville and let him listen to them. While other kids were going to sport practices after school Tony T would go over to his uncle’s studio, do his homework and play with the equipment. After a couple years Uncle Buck & rapper/producer Pink 4 realized that he remained interest in the production process and began to teach him everything they knew. When Tony was 13 Uncle Buck closed his studio and gave him all of his equipment. From that point he turned his mom, Margaret Turner’s home into his very own recording studio. Keeping her up all night with loud music Tony also took his recording skill on the road, literally. He would pack up all of his recording equipment and go around to people’s houses and record them there on location. In 2004, Tony had his first major session at the age of 18, recording an entire album for local artist, Jessie Miles. Once it was released it created major buzz in the area & sparked serious interest in other local artist. People realized he had raw talent. Somehow a semi professional gospel quartet known as “The Veal Brothers” got a hold of Jessie’s album and Tony T later found himself recording their album in 2008 entitle “Crossroads”. He also played the keyboard for The Veal Brothers. As business began to grow Tony took an even bigger step in his career and joined the gospel group “Castro Coleman & Highly Favored”, where he played keys, base guitar, & did background vocals. While in the group Tony T began to coproduce and also co wrote the song, “Negative People”. Afterwards, Castro Coleman & Highly Favored got signed to a major label, Malaco Records; where they released the album entitled “Time Out”. On the album Tony T also exposed his writing skills when he wrote the song, “My Story”. He agrees that being a part of the group had taken him pretty far. Now his talents where know at a national level and more people became interested in his work.

Producing countless artists across the United States and appearing on BET numerous times and doing countless show across the country with other artist he’s produced; Tony T & the entire Incredibeats Company is growing rapidly. With his late great beloved Big Ma as his inspiration and mom, Margaret, as his support system; Tony T has one more main component that drives him, his son Jeremiah Turner. Starting a new generation of musicians Tony T inspires his son to play instruments too; he also started playing drums at the tender age of 2. He recalls with a smile that he felt like he had made it when his son called him numerous times while he was in church just to tell him that he had seen him on TV. =Credits & Appearances=
