Album Notes

Vision Statement: Our vision as young men of God is to reach and minister to others through gospel music. We strive to live for Jesus Christ through our musical journey. Growing up The Tampa Boyz (Tyrell, Joe, Justin, Nelson, Roger III, Travis, and Tony Jr.) observed some of the nation’s finest Gospel artist such as The Canton Spirituals, The Harmony Winds, and The Exciting Gospel Warriors. While witnessing the many gospel groups’ praise and worship God through music and song, seeds were planted in them throughout their childhood. As boys, they were captivated when watching and listening attentively to the gospel artists. Their passions for music lead these young men to sing in church and become musically inclined at an early. Shortly after the opportunities to become musicians for various gospel groups and churches in the Tampa Bay Area presented itself, this gave way to outlets for the enhancement of their musical abilities. God then gave Tyrell a vision that inspired him to reach and minister to the youth through gospel music. With confirmation and support of his mentors’, Tyrell pursued his vision. In 2002 these young men came together to embark on their gospel music journey as the Sensational Brothers. Soon after in 2006, the groups’ name changed to Tyrell & The Tampa Boyz. Through the years, Tyrell & The Tampa Boyz have continued to work on their individual ministries; however, they maintain their commitment and obedience to God’s vision and mission for their gospel group. The Time Is Now and He Will Provide were the first CDs to be released by Tyrell & The Tampa Boyz. In addition to releasing the CDs, they were also blessed to videotape a live concert titled Keep on Running in March of 2006. Tyrell & The Tampa Boyz are still on their mission for God, they have just released their newest CD entitled GENESIS on April 26, 2009.
