How’s THIS for a throwback?? Big up the homie @Rivah45 for sending me this pic last night. The really weird thing about this image, is that I thought about this VERY pic only a few days ago, wondering where I could find it again. Then Rivah hits me in the DM.. 🤯 I still have the magazine. Somewhere… This is a feature in Trace Mag (Big up my man Eddie Brannan and Alan Clarke with the 📸) from 98 as Ty & Shortee Blitz as a group, were working on our debut project with Soliheen (fka Def G) and we were signed to Maseo’s label, Bear Mountain. Big up Acyde each and everytime too. It’s wild how things are thought about and just appear out of nowhere. What are the odds?? Rest In Power, Ty. 🖤 #Blitztagram #TyandShorteeBlitz #RIPTY (at Saas-Fee, Switzerland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CizLDY8InXB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The sun setting was special tonight. 26.06.2020 Yesterday was Ben TY Chijioke’s Homegoing. To celebrate his life via stream with the many lives he touched was bitter sweet & painfully sad. Thank you to Mama Ben & family for letting us be present for a kingly farewell. We hold you in prayer🙏🏾 As the sun sets on his purpose fulfilled, as the pastor said, we are all now charged to commune around his legacy- his work with youth in prisons - his music mentorship- community building & the maintaining of UK Hip Hop culture & craft- whatever food you can do please do it💜 • Ty you’re truly a shining star. A stellar storyteller. Unpretentious and so open and generous creatively. The first time we worked together I told him my idea for ‘Bedroom MC’- “I need to come to your house and film you rhyming whilst laying on your bed”. He chuckled and said “okaaaay then, let’s do it”. My brother ever since😊 #ripty #restinparadise #brixtonbaby 👑🙏🏾👑 https://www.instagram.com/p/CB9hIF_gUEb/?igshid=yiqj52uw0car

Tyshawn Woods was a comedian within the hallways and classrooms of Bethune. Tyshawn impersonation of students, parents, teachers and bussing skills were epic. I’m smiling thinking about his infectious smile and traumatized knowing Bethune lost another Black male under the age of 25 to senseless violence. I’m praying for Tyshawn’s family and all impacted by his death. #RIPTy 🕊 (at Bethune Mary McleodSchool) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBO7x49nKeI/?igshid=1u4r9l4b2441k

I’m definitely one of them who was late to most of his catalogue. The musicality is inspirational and Ty produced most of it. 💫 Makes me want to take steps to learn music production after lockdown album. Legacy levels. 💜 #beyondRap #RipTy #LetsStart #WorkOfHeart https://www.instagram.com/p/CAQIBwzA19U/?igshid=rbp6a0tzpa19

That word TIRED is exactly how I have been feeling for a while now! About a week ago, I got a text that said ‘Ty didn’t make it’ and I almost passed out. And finally got round to asking WHY! When will did end? Am tired of hearing about this pandemic taking away loved ones and I’m TIRED!!! . . Ty Chijioke (@tymusical) or Big Ben as we called him was a brother and hip-hop musical genius always repping for the UK. To the world, he was an acclaimed UK hip-hop star, previously nominated for the Mercury prize for his album Upwards. Ty had a way with Spoken Words and a way for the Culture and in his untimely passing - loads of nostalgic archive works and memories have been revived to celebrate The Legend known as Ty ‘Big Ben’ Chijioke. So here’s to celebrating the impact, love, wisdom and person that you are my beloved Igbo Brother - Big Ben 🤗🖤🤗 Happy Thoughtful Friday Beloveds 🖤 The Renaissance Journey continues... • • • • • #CherishedMemories #TyChijioke #BenChijioke #RIPTy #Visionary #SpokenWords #TrailBlazer #TYMusic #UKHipHop #KingTy #LyricalGenius #MayorOfBrixton #CommunityActivist #4TheCulture #TyMusicChallenge #PurposeDriven #Covid19 #StayAtHome #Lifestyle #Mompreneur #BlackExcellence #BeInspired #BlackGirlMagic #ContentCreator #BloggingLife #BloggerLife #LifestyleBlog #LifestyleBlogger #MelaninPoppin #TheRenaissanceLady https://www.instagram.com/p/CAOV5PpJEhr/?igshid=m81t2sw5yajl
