Triston Thompson, known artistically as Tahym, is a powerful voice rising out of Queens, NY. Born on November 10, 1988, to a single Jamaican mother who filled their home with a rich mix of sounds—from Whitney Houston to Bob Marley—Tahym was shaped early by music’s diversity and emotional depth.

From rewriting lyrics of other artists to navigating life’s toughest battles, Tahym’s journey is marked by perseverance. He stepped away from music at times, most notably after being diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome as a teen. The disease forced him to relearn basic functions like walking and talking, but it also reignited his love for songwriting. Supported by his beloved aunt, who later passed away from cancer, Tahym poured his experiences of loss, fatherhood, and family trials into his lyrics.

Music became more than a passion—it became therapy, a calling, and a tribute to those who stood by him. His turning point came after connecting with longtime friend and producer Garry G, a partnership that helped him finally carve out the sound he had been searching for his entire life.

Tahym’s music is filled with raw emotion, pain, hope, and truth. It speaks to those who have been knocked down but refuse to stay there.

His latest single, “Mamma’s Luv,” is a heartfelt tribute that encapsulates his journey, honoring the love and strength of the women who shaped him.
