Teezo Touchdown has always been a student of music, which came into his life early due to his father being a DJ. “It was Christmas and every year I would get something,” Teezo explains to Apple Music. “I got a pair of turntables, and then I got a piano, and then one year my dad, it was a small box and I opened it, and it was a key to the studio that he built upstairs, and that night, I made my first song.” Between appearing on tracks with Drake, Don Toliver and Lil Yachty, joining fellow Texan rapper Travis Scott on his Circus Maximus tour, receiving praise from hip-hop legend André 3000 and releasing his genre-bending 2023 debut album How Do You Sleep at Night?, the enigmatic Apple Music Up Next artist is constantly carving his own lane.
