Terry Presume Makes Fans “Act Up”

Florida-raised artist Terry Presume is a wild card. “I never approach music with a preconceived idea,” he told us last year, and it shows. Aside from athletic deliveries, a razor-sharp voice, and a clear point of view on life and music, you never know what you’re going to get.

“Act Up,” is a funky pop hit laced with rap verses, “Zaza and Some Runtz” takes that funk into hard-hitting psychedelic territory, and “Don’t Wait Forever” gets spiritual. Presume is a dynamic artist, but everything he releases comes across as deeply genuine and personal, and that’s part of what makes him such a compelling figure in an increasingly robotic and manufactured industry right now.

“I want to accomplish a few things in 2022 such as financial freedom and a better understanding of finance and business literacy amongst many other creative endeavors,” Terry explains in an email. “I feel good about my new music, it’s my life and slowly becoming ‘my sound.’ As for my headspace, it’s in its regular space, (my head). I have a love-hate relationship with humans and my mind is quite the dystopia so my actions are forever a bit affected by that. But in all honesty, I just want to get my music out to the world. I have it ready to go. In conclusion, I want my supporters to know that I miss getting music to them and that I’m also working on things outside of music at the moment. Foremost, it’ll be for us, then it’ll be for the world.”
