As an actor, T-REP has played a lead role in the hit gospel stageplay "Can You Keep A Secret?" A play about AIDS/HIV awareness and also played a lead role in the theatrical production of “Be Careful What You Pray For.” He was a featured actor and singer/rapper in “Speak! I’m Listening” a dramatic stageplay written, directed by and starring Tyga Graham (of R&B group Silk and Tyler Perry’s I Can Do Bad All By Myself). He has appeared on Cartoon Network approximately 10 times on shows that featured Nick Cannon, Sammie, Da Back Wudz, Jibbs, Jessie McCartney, Hawthorne Heights and The Plain White T’s. He played a lead role in the independent film “Gangland” with Lantawood Films where one of his songs was featured in the movie. He did voice over for an animated TV show pilot in which he portrayed the lead character in “The Fantastical Adventures of Sleepy Steve”. In 2008 he received a personal phone call from CBS Network Television Station casting department, inviting him to play a season role on the TV show “Kid Nation” (which T-REP had to turn down due to scheduling conflicts – WOW! What a great problem to have). He’s been featured in several other television pilots including “Kidz Connect” and “Talent TV For Kids & Teens”. T-REP was recently cast in the upcoming stageplay musical “City of Love” which will take place at Bishop Eddie L. Long’s New Birth MBC Re-Present Youth Conference. He also auditioned and was selected to receive professional training workshops from the internationally famous Millie Lewis Actor’s, Model and Talent for Christ Competition (AMTC) to be held in Orlando, FL. He is currently receiving training in Modeling, Acting and Performance (Artist Development). In his recent past, T-REP has auditioned for Nickelodean and Disney shows, which he received call back auditions for from getting Casting Directors attention. We are praying and believing that it will just be a matter of time before we’ll be seeing T-REP on one of these stations in the near future.
What’s poppin’ for T-REP in 2K11? More TV Shows, more movies, more performances, more music, more ministry. T-REP recently signed with one of the most prestigious and well-connected talent agencies in the country, J Pervis Talent, who discovered film and television superstars such as Dakota Fanning, Raven Symone, Lucas Till, Kyle & Chris Massey and more. He’s currently featured on President Barack Obama’s musical soundtrack for the highly acclaimed documentary “Becoming Barack – Evolution Of A Leader” (www.becomingbarack.com). T-REP was recently interviewed by TBN’s JCTV and will be featured in a special segment plus involvement on some of their other upcoming projects. T-REP very recently was featured in a special interview on The Donnie McClurkin Show as an “Amazing Kid”. Also, with the support and guidance of an expert management team & advisors, T-REP is launching his very own entertainment company, Yungsta Grind Entertainment, Int’l. YGEI will be a full service record label and entertainment company, which will provide a wide range of resources with the primary focus of supporting positive and inspiring entertainment of the arts that reaches all generations, especially the youth. His new music video “Why Is Life So Hard?” has just been released. Look out for new highly anticipated musical projects from T-REP. Two simultaneous projects will be released. His Urban Inspirational project is titled “YUNGSTA GRIND” and his mainstream Pop/Hip Hop project is not yet titled but sure to be an attention getter. Very impressive for a young shawty who just 14.
