I just saw this. This is from October 17th, the same day I went to TQ's performance in Belgium with Tqslittlelady.

I translated the text:
TQ was born as Terrance Quaites in Mobile, Alabama. Shortly after his birth his family moved to Compton, California where also NWA and other rap legends were born...
TQ was raised religious and he also sang in the church choir. He really got raised on the streets. That's where he got to know hip-hop. "From Monday till Saturday I hang on the streets, chased girls, got into trouble and I acted like a fool", says TQ. "But on Sunday my mom got me out of bed to go to church. That's where I developped my voice and I learned how I can let other people feel me". [this isn't translated really well, but fu?k it]
TQ knows his lyrics on 'They Never Saw Me Coming' are controversial, but he refuses to take back his words believing that honest, talent and freedom of expression are on his side. "It's stupid not to speak about the truth. Life has many ups and downs. If you hide negative things, the positive things don't mean anything".
On the second picture you see Kian, the tourmanager on the picture. He rocks! ;D
