Tezz Cart'R Perspective on Anytime

I’m Tezz Cart'R— a Barbados born - R&B writer, singer, and storyteller signed under Emarc Entertainment. I craft melodies that hit where words can't, blending soulful vibes with raw emotion. Whether I’m penning lyrics or pouring my heart into a track, it’s all about creating moments you can feel long after the song ends.

I’m here to give you rhythm, realness, and a little bit of me in every verse.

Being born in Barbados, it’s in my blood to blend rhythm with soul. The island teaches you how to feel music before you even understand it. That sunshine, that struggle, that slow wine heartbreak—it all shows up in Anytime.

The song’s about loyalty and longing, yeah, but there’s also that Caribbean patience and passion in it. Like, I might not see you every day... but Anytime you need me, I’m pulling up—no questions, no clock. That’s island love. Deep, real, and steady.

It’s not just a track. It’s a vibe passed down from my roots. 🌊🇧🇧

Man... earliest memories? I remember waking up to my grandmother humming old calypso tunes while the sun poured through the kitchen window. The scent of saltfish and bakes in the air, and the radio playing Sparrow, Rihanna, and Beres Hammond like it was the holy trinity.

But the moment that really hit? I was maybe five, sitting on the veranda during a summer rain, and my uncle played Luther Vandross on this dusty cassette deck. That man’s voice slid through the storm like silk—and I swear, that’s when I knew: music wasn’t just sound... it was sanctuary.

From then on, I was hooked. Always listening, always learning. Every rhythm told a story—and I was gonna write my own.

From then on, I was hooked. Always listening, always learning. Every rhythm told a story—and I was gonna write my own.

Yo, real talk? I was six years old, standing in front of a broken floor fan like it was a sold-out stadium mic. I had on my cousin’s shades, my uncle’s church shoes two sizes too big, and I was singing my heart out to a Boyz II Men track—off-key but all heart.

That moment? Something clicked. I saw how my aunt paused from cooking just to listen. How my little sister stopped crying. It was like… my voice mattered. I wasn’t just making noise—I was making a connection.

That’s when I knew: this ain’t just what I love—this is what I’m meant to do.

And from that day on, every talent show, every mirror performance, every scribbled lyric—it was all leading to this. I didn't just choose the stage—the stage chose me.

Anytime is rooted deep in R&B and Soul, no doubt. That’s the heart—the emotional pull, the late-night phone call kinda vibe. But I had to lace it with a little Hip-Hop grit—those drum patterns don’t play, they knock. It gives the track backbone, that edge that makes it feel current, like we ain't just reminiscing—we're living it.

And then yeah, those Jazz sprinkles? That’s the seasoning. The unexpected chord changes, the little sax licks, the smooth transitions... it’s like sipping dark wine on a rooftop at midnight. Smooth, classy, but lowkey dangerous.

So yeah, it's R&B/Soul at its core, but with Hip-Hop's confidence and Jazz's elegance—a genre blend that tells the story exactly how I felt it.

I want people to feel seen. Like, really seen. Whether you’re heartbroken, healing, vibing alone at 2AM, or missing someone you shouldn’t be missing—my music is that space where you don’t have to pretend.

When you hit play, I want the world to pause for a second. I want the lyrics to hug your chest, the beat to carry your thoughts, and the voice to say, “Yo, I’ve been there too.”

It’s not just about sounding good—it’s about being real. If you walk away from my song and feel like someone finally put your unspoken feelings into melody?

Then I did what I came here to do. 🎤💙
