About the Artist
Diamond Note Records presents...TINO!

The phrase "A lyricist whom words intoxicates" describes TINO, because his flamboyant style delivers a variety of storylines with a jagged street edge! His debut album entitled "Die for Fortune & Fame" pays homage to the urban lifestyle and creates a lyrical documentary every time the listener plays his CD! He incorporates charismatic vocals over Hip-Hop beats to create a new... "South meets West" sound with undertones of an R&B genre. TINO's infectious grooves put the listener in a rhythmic trance! Vibe to the hot climatic songs such as; "Self-Made Millionaire, Paparazzi, and the reggae/rock induced Intoxication!"

TINO is one lyrical poet who hails from the Southwest side of Houston, Texas, which spawned big acts like the Geto Boys and Destiny's Child. His melodramatic style falls between the Dirty South and West Coast rhythms. Some of his career highlights include the following:
