TAIOTIMS has come a long way from 2020, using anything he could to record his freestyles such as an iPhone 6 or his work laptop and a Playstation headset, to now building his own home studio and engineering his own vocals using FL Studio.
Since arriving on the scene with his debut single ‘My Soulview’ in 2021. TAIOTIMS has been recognised for his craft by Auckland Hip Hop icons such as - Scribe, Che Fu, Tom Scott, Rizvan, Poetik, Diggy Dupe and Lucky Lance to name a few.
Only months ago, TAIOTIMS was invited to perform at an international organisation showcase ‘Breaking Sound’ and is now set to be on the opening line up for ‘Enter the Ville’ National Tour run by 685’s very own - Poetik. Growing up in his childhood home Grey Lynn, TAIOTIMS is excited to share that he has been requested to perform alongside BaseFM DJ and good friend Jay Knight at this year’s Grey Lynn Festival.
His portfolio has grown rapidly since he hit the NZ Hip Hop scene being featured on NZ’s music publication platform Muzic.Net and National Radio stations such as MaiFM, BaseFM and NiuFM. His hit single ‘All for You’ was playlisted on NuiFm’s rotational playlists which was later placed on the Top 100 for Radioscope NZ’s ‘Most Added’ charts, placing at #37.
TAIOTIMS apsires to be a spokesperson for those that suffer from mental health problems regardless of Nationality or Area Code. With his debut EP ‘Thank you for your Patience’ he signals that he is grateful for everyone’s patience and is ready to let the world dive a bit deeper into his soul.
