FRSHRZ Presents… Pass The Torch 4 Ty
Filmed on Tuesday 17th August 2021, this was a special event that celebrates the life of a true UK Hip Hop legend on what was his 49th Birthday. This was the first opportunity for friends, family, and fans of Ty had to come together to celebrate this UK Rap Legends life and legacy since his passing in 2020.
.
Pass The Torch 4 Ty was a night of love, laughter, and plenty of Ty classics with his full tour band led by UK Jazz sensation Richard Spaven, featuring guest vocalists Terri Walker, BREIS, Seanie Tee, TrueMendous, FRSHRZ, Logic, and more, with music on the night from Chris Bounce. Pass The Torch was founded by Ty as means to celebrate new and seasoned UK artists whose music he supported and felt needed more exposure. The original Pass The Torch event which was held at The Jazz Cafe in January 2019, was a sell-out and a success that highlighted the demand to see the UK talent he showcased. This tribute event was organised by Chas WISDM alongside Jazz Re:Freshed, who collaborated with Ty on the original Pass The Torch nights with all proceeds going to The Ben ‘Ty’ Chijioke Foundation.
