Paradise [Explicit Content]

• Track Listing

Explicit Version. Paradise is the 2008 entry by TQ with his music mix of West Coast Hip Hop, based on artists like Too Short, Ice-T, Ice Cube, 2Pac and Eazy-E. As far as Hip-Hop goes, it influenced his writing along with the older R&B acts such as Aretha Franklin and Stevie Wonder. TQ aka Terrance Quaites is an R&B singer who is a native of Alabama and he grew up in Compton, California. TQ formally revealed his music during the 2Pac era; in which controversy surrounding his Westside inspired lyrics censored and hindered the radio play and award eligibility most likely he would have received. Terrance Quaites was never a thug in the true sense of the word. His hard-working parents instilled positive values and did not hesitate to set him straight when he was wrong.
