Prolific artist TEF XL recently shared a new single that has taken over his fanbase. “Deuces” is fun, exciting, and most importantly meaningful. The song brings back the good-old hip-hop vibes executed in a modern style and is proof of TEF’s incredible skill. “Deuces” follows the artist’s life like a compressed autobiography through which the listener gets to know TEF with phrases like “put myself through more sh#t then I could’ve suppose” and “I represent multiviews past and present”.
TEF is a business executive with deep roots as a hip-hop artist, promoter, and social advocate from Jacksonville, Florida. His music draws inspiration from 80s and 90s rap, crafted with modern melodic hints of neo-soul and enveloped in smart and socially conscious lyricism. With influences ranging from Jay-Z and Rakim to Jeezy and Kendrick Lamar, TEF is about to drop a retrospective album aptly titled CODE SWITCH that promises to be the story-of-life depiction of the artist’s experiences.
