In this new entry in our ‘Diamonds In The Rough’ category, we would like to introduce you to upcoming artists T.E.E and T-Quail and their brand new joint album titled Assassin’s Creed.
Hip-hop is at its best when it tells a story, and Assassin’s Creed—the highly anticipated joint album from T.E.E and T-Quail—does exactly that. Hailing from Goldsboro, NC, these two artists paint a vivid picture of life in their city from different perspectives. Though their paths differ, their struggles are strikingly similar, making this project a deeply personal and relatable body of work.
A Journey Through the Struggles and Triumphs
At its core, Assassin’s Creed is about survival, ambition, and self-reflection. T.E.E, a seasoned artist, producer, and audio engineer, brings his signature storytelling ability and sharp production to the project, while T-Quail adds his own experiences and perspectives, making the album a dynamic conversation between two voices shaped by the same environment.
