Premiering with his very own \u201cDriven VIP\u201d channel, the music video will become available on Roku as well as FireStick to expand its availability to new audiences. The \u2018Driven\u2019 brand, which has been coined by Tyke T, offers a subscription-based model for dedicated fans and followers who wish to stay informed about new music and merchandise.<\/p>\n<p>Having been challenged by his manager to write a good vibe track for the ladies, Tyke T drew inspiration from his wife\u2019s busy schedule to write a song about taking her mind off of the stress and making time for a much needed night out on the town. This is certainly a shared sentiment by many in our world\u2019s current state. We\u2019re all wishing for a semblance of normalcy so that we can once again, enjoy a stress free night out. Following a string of successful sync placements with VH1\u2019s Black Crew Compton, FOX\u2019s The Masked Singer, The Surge 2 Trailer and several ESPN games, Tyke T\u2019s new track offers that mainstream appeal while maintaining an undoubtedly strong lyrical skill.<\/p>\n<p>The countdown to the weekend is seamlessly expressed in his playful music video that features a girl who wants to wrap up her day and get cute for a stress-free night off of work. Tyke T raps to her on Facetime as he gets ready to get her mind off of all that life has thrown her way. Introducing impressive skyline views of downtown Memphis, he joins her for a romantic meal and a glass of vino as they dance the night away.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201c5-4-3-2-1, That\u2019s the countdown, It\u2019s Friday afternoon \u2013 Paint the town (red) \/\/ Dealt with the Bull shyt all week, Bout to go down \/\/ If you bringing bad vibes, Gotta go now\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>By combining honest lyrics, bold production and insight garnered from his graduate education, Tyke T has proven his mastery of the game as he continues to climb the charts without the help of a major label. After graduating with his MBA from Middle Tennessee State University, Tyke T has successfully stormed the Top 50 of four Billboard charts. Influenced by everyone from Jodeci to Kanye West, his earlier work impressively made it to the Top Ten in VH1\u2019s \u2018Make A Band Famous\u2019. Making a name for himself in Memphis, Tyke T has been featured as the \u2018Next Big Thing\u2019 by local radio after his opening performances with well known acts B.O.B &amp; Boosie Badazz. In 2015, he had the honor of performing John Legend and Common\u2019s hit \u201cGlory\u201d at the NAACP Freedom Awards to honor the director of the historical film \u2018Selma\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Driven, dedicated and decorated, Tyke T introduces \u201cCountdown\u201d, available on Roku, FireStick and all streaming platforms today.<\/p>\n<p>Watch &#8220;Countdown&#8221; on YouTube <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=qPB3_Au5FhU\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<span class=\"et_bloom_bottom_trigger\"><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>On the heels of his Billboard charting project \u201cThe Prelude\u201d as well as his 30 Day Mixtape series, Memphis rapper\u00a0Tyke T\u00a0releases a song for the ladies in his new hit \u201cCountdown\u201d.
