Gibson, who was once a member of a rap group called Triple Impact, released his self-titled debut music album, which went platinum, in 1998; his second album, 2000 Watts, shares the name of the organization he founded to help inner city children. Gibson was given the role originally intended for the late 2Pac Shakur in the 2001 film Baby Boy; the movie was a critical success and performed fairly at the box office. Gibson subsequently appeared in the 2003 box office success 2 Fast 2 Furious (opposite Paul Walker, with whom he formed a close friendship during filming), as well as Flight of the Phoenix (2004), Four Brothers (2005) and Annapolis (2006), co-starring James Franco. Gibson was picked as one of People Magazine’s Sexiest Men of the Year in 2000.
Gibson has also established himself as a successful screenwriter, selling the pitches D.A. Verdict to MGM and Extortion to Universal Studios. In 2006, Gibson sold his first original spec script, To Each His Own, to Screen Gems. He is to star in and produce all of the films. Gibson has also created HQ Pictures, a television and film production company. He has hired Mike Le as VP of development & production to oversee and develop projects under the company’s banner.
Gibson prefers his music career to acting, but will focus on both areas. His third album is called Alter Ego, and featured both R&B and hip hop songs. He used an alias, “Black Ty”, for the rap tracks. Tyrese had a role in the Transformers movie, released July of 2007; the film’s director, Michael Bay, had Gibson in mind for the role before he was cast, and thus Gibson did not have to audition for the part.
Tyrese's fourth and latest album Open Invitation was released on November 1, 2011 in the US. It was preceeded by the single "Stay" which peaked on U.S. Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Songs at number 11. The second single "Too Easy" features Ludacris and was released soon after.

The song "Hurry Up" by Tyrese is a plea for love and companionship from a man who is feeling lonely and bored. The lyrics express the urgency of his need for the presence and touch of the woman he loves. In the first verse, the singer describes his sense of isolation in his large home without his lover. He has been calling her to bring him out of his misery, but she has not yet arrived. He implores her to hurry up and give him her love, to be with him right away.
In the second verse, the singer becomes more agitated, pacing and twiddling his toes while waiting for his lover to arrive. He is suffering from insomnia, and he needs her to be there to console him. He calls her his medicine, and he fears for his health and well-being without her. The chorus repeats the message of the urgency of his need for her love and physical closeness.
Overall, the song is a display of vulnerability and neediness, as the singer reveals his deep emotional dependence on the woman he loves. He cannot be content or fulfilled without her, and he pleads with her to come to him quickly.
