Teno Songwriter is a platinum-selling songwriter that has to his credit one of the most influential and successful records of our culture; “Freak Me” performed by multi-platinum R&B recording artists SILK, penned by Teno Songwriter and Keith Sweat.
To commemorate the 30 year anniversary of Freak Me, Teno Songwriter has brought us “Boss Chick”, to say “thank you” and pay homage to all the beautiful Boss Chicks who have supported “Freak Me” throughout the years. Teno Songwriter has worked with countless numbers of producers and artists throughout his music career.
A MASTER at writing HOOKS, Teno encourages artists to write by allowing them room to pen their own verses on his songs. Teno Songwriter resides in a suburb of Atlanta with his wife and two children where he continues to write some of the most beautiful songs of his career.
Boss Chick is a commemorative song honoring the 30-year anniversary of the platinum hit “Freak Me” penned by Teno Songwriter and Keith Sweat, for the multi-platinum singing group SILK. Boss Chick is a sexy, base-heavy R&B/HipHop masterpiece that places women on the pedestal they deserve to stand on. Women are taking care of their families, leading our country and major corporations as well as running their own businesses, yet there’s no music saying to them, “great job, thank you and I appreciate you”. Boss Chick pays homage to women while demanding they be recognized and treated as a Boss Chick. More than just a song, Boss Chick is a movement dedicated to all women, regardless of creed, color, or race.
Back in the day, so to speak, Alvin L. Giles was putting out tons of music on YouTube and working closely with R&B and soul artist Cody ChesnuTT – touring the world as his music director and working as the principal arranger for his critically acclaimed album Landing on 100.
He even worked as pianist and lead musician on the song “What Does Freedom Mean” for the soundtrack to the Oscar-winning film “Twelve Years a Slave.”
Then he became a father and his focus shifted to being a good provider and dad.
Now, 10 years since his last release hit the shelves, the artist known as Giles is reintroducing himself to the world with his stirring new single “Alive” and a chorus that borrows from the colloquial expression it’s not the size of the dog in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the dog.
“When I wrote the song it was really a message to myself because I needed the encouragement,” he says. “When you’ve stepped away from your dreams and passions for 10 years, even if you’re doing it for a noble cause like taking care of your family, it’s a mighty blow. I’m trying to step back into the ring and reconnect with my old fans. I needed something in my head to click and that’s what this song was for me.”
As he debated what song to release for his coming back party, war broke out in Ukraine and Giles knew the single had to be “Alive.”
“You are here, you persist, you’re alive,” he sings in the chorus. “Despite fear, you resist, and you thrive.”
“We’re all coming out of a pandemic, we’re all survivors in a sense and there’s war, there’s suffering,” he says.
It’s an impressive debut, with Giles “really spitting” and showcasing his lyricism, songwriting and musical chops. Every bass note plucked, every hi-hat and drum beat – everything is 100 percent him. He composed the song; wrote the hooks, the chorus, the harmonies and engineered the recording, only bringing in a fresh set of ears for mixing and mastering.
“You really get an overdose of what Giles has to say and has to bring musically, sonically,” he says. “This is not my only style but this song encapsulates something that I think is quite unique. A lot of times you have people who excel in one particular area. They might be a fantastic producer but they need a ghostwriter or they’re a fantastic lyricist but they can’t write a song. I have my fingers on the pulse of the music. I’m not just thinking about what bars I’m going to rap, I’m thinking about what keyboard licks I’m going to play and what bass riffs. You get a pure view of my vision.”
He calls it purposeful intention, because Giles wants listeners to hear his raw vision and know that every note was placed intentionally. There are no opportunities for his music or message to get lost in translation.
Placing Giles’ music in a specific genre is a difficult task because he excels in multiple styles. It’s hip hop, it’s indie rock – it’s even been compared to Seal. He studied jazz piano in college at Florida A&M and the fact he was chosen to play piano on a major motion picture soundtrack, curated by John Legend, speaks to his talent.
“Alive” is his first shot, he says, but the gun is fully loaded and Giles is putting fans of indie hip hop and people who resonate with his message on notice that he’s not going anywhere this time.
“My kids are older, I’ve done what I need to do financially to make sure my family is in a good place with or without my recording career,” he says. “Now I’m in a position to take no prisoners and that’s exactly what I intend on doing.”
Giles will release more singles throughout 2022, all sharing the same meticulous planning, and there’s one thing he hopes rings true: as an independent army of one, stack him up against your favorite major artist and their team of writers, producers, and musicians to see who comes out on top and it’s not going to be an easy win for them.

ABOUT GBG Fukemup
GBG FUKEMUP OR FUKEMUP as he is referred to by close friends and fans is a Harvey Illinois, by way of Chicago-born Independent artist who has always had the rap itch. The second youngest of six siblings, Fukemup traveled a twisting path as his drive for music pushed him onward. With childhood memories from every neighborhood he lived in, it was on Chicago’s Eastside,Fukemup reflects: “All around we moved a lot through out the city /suburb to suburb, but the trenches is actually
where it was most fun for me. There was Stony Island, we had the 79th beach where people used to bring out the cars and it was a lot of females you know”. Fukemup’s interest in the rap game was from his uncle and father who rapped when he was just 4. His professional interest came when his close friends and fellow rap artists from EBE & GBG were consistently pursuing music with focus. Fukemup soon after found himself in the music studio where he recorded some tracks and vocals on solo
projects as well as featuring as a guest rapper on other collaborations. His musical influences include such rap luminaries as T.I and 50 Cent, and a few others. His music style is thought-provoking and non-conventional; sometimes rapid-fire, but interspersed with a positive approach to social discourse and real-life experiences. Ultimately, GBG Fukemup draws inspiration from his upbringing and plans on leaving a legacy for not just his fans, but his biggest inspiration; his son. Fukemup is currently gearing up for his new music and visual releases “FREESTYLE”, “NO LIBS” & “SET”
