For TCM Pain, being a twenty-two-year-old brilliant musician who grew up in New Orleans, Louisiana, isn’t easy. But given that’s where he grew up and gained a profound love for music, he’s more than ready to honor his roots. 

TCM Pain has already showcased his musical gift, great hunger for growth, and his passionate commitment as an artist in the music industry. His debut hit single “Ain’t Too Late” paved the way for him to start establishing his name in the music industry. This hit single has earned over 12,000 all-time streams. 

With the world learning more about Pain and his music, his acronym ‘TCM’ was one of the many things that stood atop his personal brand. “TCM stands for Timeless Core Music. When I first started making music I knew I wanted it to be timeless, as time went on I reinvented myself.”

“No Vanity, Only Regrets. I keyed this quote after I first started realizing things about myself, knowing myself,” explains the soulful rap artist. “It translates to me not ever drowning in conceit from my own appearance or achievements. I’ve come far in life and in my music career so much so that it’s easy to obtain an unforgiving ego, but my pessimistic nature and my habitual overthinking keep me modest and on the road of humility.” 

Some of his inspirations are Post Malone, Rod Wave, and Juice WRLD. These artists have influenced the way he created music and his very own brand of unique, saddened, and melodic sound. 

The young artist creates his own music out of sheer passion and desire for growth and is very much ready to embrace wherever his promising career in music takes him.

Pain has a unique gift of telling his listeners through the many words of his music. He showed his artistry and soulful music through one of his songs where he said that he can’t afford his love for his special person because he feels he’s giving his all to that person and they are playing along and not reciprocating. 

With just having a melodic guitar rhythm and his soulful emotional lyrics, he walks his listeners through his prolonged agony from a heartbreak. 

“You had me down, now you asking for a wedding ring. Marriage mad overrated, I would rather be a king”. As more and more people hear his one-of-a-kind music, he is looking at creating more music for his fans and avid supporters of his music. A few years from now, TCM envisions himself to be known as a rising underground artist that makes melodic, emo rap music.”
