Mr Cheeks

Mr. Cheeks (b. March 28, 1971), born Terrance Kelly in Jamaica, Queens, NY, is a rapper best known for his work with the musical group The Lost Boyz, and his career as a solo artist.

Mr. Cheeks, along with band mates Freaky Tah (1972-1999), Spigg Nice and Pretty Lou made up The Lost Boyz. The Lost Boyz practiced a sincere, literate, non-sensational style of New York hip-hop and produced a number of singles including; "Lifestyles of the Rich and Shameless" (1994), "Jeeps, Lex Coups, Bimaz & Benz" (1995) and "Renee" (1996). Lost Boyz gained worldwide critical acclaim following the release of the albums; Legal Drug Money in 1996, Love, Peace & Nappiness in 1997, and LB IV Life in 1999.

In March 1999, Lost Boyz member, Freaky Tah, was murdered while leaving Mr. Cheeks' birthday party in Queens, N.Y. After Tah's death the Lost Boyz effectively broke up, and Mr. Cheeks remained quiet.

Cheeks resurfaced in late 2001, as a solo artist. His debut solo album, John P. Kelly, (Universal Records) named for both his cousin and his grandfather, featured the hit single "Lights, Camera, Action!". The album also included a collaboration with longtime friend and business partner, Stephen Marley, (son of legendary reggae artist Bob Marley) featuring the ballad "Till We Meet Again" (recorded in Freaky Tah's memory) and the reggae-flavored "Mama Say”. In 2003 Mr. Cheeks released the follow-up album, Back Again!.

In the fall of 2003 Cheeks separated from Universal, forming his own label, Diane’s Boyz. On June 8th, 2004, Mr. Cheeks released the album Ladies and Ghettomen, his 3rd solo LP in as many years. Mr. Cheeks and Stephen Marley also created a record label, One Fam Music.

He was featured on Lil Kim's single, The Jump Off. He also made a feature, rapping the hoook, on Lakey The Kid's single Q.U. Side in 2006.

Mr. Cheeks was scheduled to have another CD released in April 2006, even offering the first single ("What We do") for free on his website, however, the CD was never released and his website was taken down shortly after.

He recently released a dis track goin at 50 cent "In 50 Cent's Dreams" where he brings up the usual accusation of Curtis being a snitch.
