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.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What do I see
Everybody wants to try to get to know me baby
Now it's my prerogative to do what I want to do
And I couldn't see myself babe with no one but you
I don't want nobody else but you
'Cause no one makes me feel
I don't want nobody else but you
'Cause no one makes me feel
The way that you do
Now I see you just can't handle
Handle my lifestyle
You say I'm do damn crazy
You say I'm to damn wild
You gotta understand
This is just the way I live
Baby what you see is exactly what you get (Nobody, but my my baby)
I don't want nobody else but you
'Cause no one makes me feel
The way that you do
I don't want nobody else but you
'Cause no one makes me feel
The way that you do
I don't want nobody else but you
'Cause no one makes me feel
The way that you do
I don't want nobody else but you
'Cause no one makes me feel
The way that you do
I know the situations shady
You have to understand
You know that I'm the man (baby)
I feel ya bout to drive me crazy
You're acting insecure
When all I want is you (you you baby)
Well uh you can take my word like in God We Trust
Baby girl they only want me cause I'm on the bus
I don't want a crew I just want you
Solo stereotypes I'm from Watts, so I'm ghetto
No more games or drama
If you live by the nana you die by the nana
Nobody knows how far we'll go
But I do I don't want nobody but you
I don't want nobody else but you
'Cause no one makes me feel
The way that you do
I don't want nobody else but you
'Cause no one makes me feel
The way that you do
I don't want nobody else but you
'Cause no one makes me feel
The way that you do
I don't want nobody else but you
'Cause no one makes me feel
The way that you do
I don't want nobody else but you
'Cause no one makes me feel
The way that you do
The song "Nobody Else" by Tyrese is about the singer's desire to stick with one person, despite the attention he receives from other people. He notices that everyone wants to get to know him, but he chooses to be with one person. Despite his wild lifestyle, Tyrese wants to be with his partner and nobody else. He acknowledges that his partner might be feeling insecure, but he reassures her that all he wants is her. The singer also mentions that people are only interested in him because he's famous, but he only wants his partner and doesn't care for the attention of others.
The chorus in the song repeats the phrase "I don't want nobody else but you, 'cause no one makes me feel the way that you do" to emphasize the exclusivity of his feelings towards his partner. The song conveys the message that fame and attention are not enough to make one happy if they do not have the right person in their life.
Overall, Tyrese's "Nobody Else" is a message to his partner that despite the attention he receives from other people, she is the only one he wants to be with. It teaches us that it is important to prioritize the right people in our life, and not get carried away with fame and attention.
