This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Comment: IMDB, Who Sampled and YouTube serves as external links and aren't reliable sources. Don't use unreliable sources for accolades. See WP:NMUSICIAN. TheChineseGroundnut (talk) 18:45, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: This article reads more like an essay rather than an encyclopedia article. There's information that is not necessary to include, and also unable to be cited with reliable sources, such as the rapper's mantra, receiving fan mail, and etc. There's a lot of editorializing with non-neutral, unreferenceable statements such as "Torn on which career path to take, his fate to pursue music was sealed after suffering a knee injury during college football practice." Lines like these that talk about the subject's inner thoughts would not be suitable to include. Utopes (talk / cont) 07:56, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
T-Money (born Tyrone Kelsie, January 4) is a rapper, actor, entrepreneur and former MTV VJ. He was a member in the group Original Concept.[1] He was a vital player in the evolution of hip hop as one of the original innovators of the sound with bass music using the 808 drum extending into the modern rap genre.[2][1] This can be found in their songs "Knowledge Me" and "Pump That Bass".[2][3]
The element of vinyl spinning, rap freestyle, storytelling, and dance remain a key component in the theme of hip hop today, lending credit to T-Money as one of the originators of the sound for hip hop in the mainstream.[2][3]
Early life and education
T-Money was born and raised in Westbury, New York. Kelsie attended Westbury High School, where he was on the football team. In high school, he formed a DJ group, Concept Crew, with longtime friend, Doctor Dré.
He was also one of the DJ’s for the college radio station, WBAU 90.3 FM,[4] which included a host of other hip hop artists from that time, including Flavor Flav, Chuck D, Busta Rhymes, and his group member Doctor Dré. In 1996, T-Money graduated from the New York Institute of Technology[5] with a Bachelor’s degree in communications, and in 2010, he earned a professional certificate in Marketing from New York University School of Professional Studies.
Original Concept
In 1985, T-Money, along with the other members of Original Concept, released the promo "Knowledge Me", which aired on WBAU radio. T-Money wrote the lyrics, performed vocals, and co-produced the piece with Doctor Dré and Eric McIntosh. After hearing the song, Rick Rubin signed the group to Def Jam Recordings.[1] Original Concept was one of the first of many artists to sign with Def Jam, which remains one of the most notable recording labels in the music industry today.[1] In 1988, their album Straight from the Basement of Kooley High[6] was released by the label. Their song "Pump That Bass", is a frequently sampled song[7][5] in the hip hop genre.
Television and screen career
Yo! MTV Raps
T-Money was a co-host and comedic sidekick for Yo! MTV Raps with Doctor Dré and Ed Lover.[8][9] [5]Yo! MTV Raps was a music variety show which included comedic sketches, music videos, live performances and appearances on the set. T-Money displayed his acting ability with the portrayal of several other popular characters, most notably: Uncle Bobo Lovetree, The Nubianator, Clarence Coldwater Capsule, and Michael Jackson at Forty. He was also featured on his own Yo! MTV Raps trading card which was #143 in the series.
The show ran from 1988 until 1995, with the last episode going down as a significant page in hip hop history[10][11].
Acting
After Yo! MTV Raps, T-Money began acting, using his stage name as his credits. He starred in Juice (1992) and Who's the Man? (1993).[5]
MTV VJ
From 1992 to 1993, T-Money vee-jayed on the MTV game show Lip Service, with host Jay Mohr. During T-Money’s time on the show, Lip Service won the CableACE Award in the game show category[12]. He also joined the MTV Spring Break’s popular annual lineup from 1990 until 1995.
Other ventures
Utilizing his experience and education, T-Money developed his own promotions and brand marketing company, TM Media Works (2012), which has been renamed to T450 Style & Launch Inc.[13] The company provides a variety of services for the entertainment industry and beyond.
In 2020, T-Money reunited with Ed Lover and Doctor Dré for Yo! Just Say Vote,[14][15] a live stream of who, what, where, how and why of voting.
Additionally, T-Money is an advisor with the Hip-Hop Education Center.[16]
