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.

Came with the girls, gonna leave with a star

The lyrics of Tyrese's song "One Night" depict a scene of a woman walking into a club with her friends and catching the attention of the singer. Tyrese notes that he has everything she needs and that she is his type with her body looking right. He then hints that she is a freak that he wants to keep on the low, promising her satisfaction guarantee. The song then progresses to him asking her to spend the night with him, stating that he will change her life, and promising that she will never leave him after one night. While the lyrics may be seen as overtly sexual, they also show a certain level of confidence that Tyrese has in himself as a lover.
The suggestive nature of the lyrics is characteristic of R&B music, commonly referred to as "baby-making music." The genre's goal is to create a sensual atmosphere and make listeners feel relaxed and comfortable. While some may criticize this kind of music for being overly explicit, others argue that it promotes healthy sexual expression and can even bring couples closer together.
