Hailing from the war-torn nation of Liberia, a modern Renaissance-level polymath, Still.Teddy is going full mad scientist on a vast array of killer beats and melodic treats. Multi-instrumentalist, producer, entrepreneur, and family man Still.Teddy has brought his golden touch to national acts such as Foxy Shazam, NUEX, and Automagik. Now, for the first time, he's preparing to release music for a project that bears his name alone, with a penchant for writing infectious tunes and relatable narratives.

Still.Teddy is greatly influenced by real life experiences, drawing inspiration for his music from personal experiences and hardships, allowing him to tell powerful stories.

Hi this is Teddy, thanks for giving me your time. "I'd Start Practicing If I Were You" is a record about despair and hope. It outlines some of my thoughts, questions and fears about the current state of the world, while still giving a glimmer of hope and love.

It's a personal record that touches on my family escaping the war in Liberia and coming to America and seeing a similar spirit of hatred amongst its people and being confused by how as spiritual beings we can treat each other so badly, but also knowing that at the end, everything will always be ok.

There's still much good in the world and a lot to be happy about. That record will come, but for now, I'd start practicing if I were you.
