Tyrese Gibson

The Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen star opens up his iTunes and gives us an exclusive look at the oldies but goodies that still turn his world upside down

A Taste:

Marvin Gaye, The Whispers, R. Kelly

Tyrese Gibson has got style and soul.

Musically, he’s able to blend together the best elements of hip hop and R&B, while on screen he can play the action hero with a conscience and real depth. That’s exactly what he does in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Tyrese takes his character Epps to another level, adding tangible emotion amidst all of the bombastic explosions.

Tyrese is always listening to music too. So he decided to share his playlist with ARTISTdirect.com in this exclusive feature. Check it out below and don’t miss Tyrese in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen in theaters everywhere on Wednesday June 24, 2009.

Tyrese Gibson’s Playlist:

1. Marvin Gaye

2. The Whispers

3. Stevie Wonder

4. R. Kelly

I’m an oldies but goodies guy. I stay with Marvin Gaye, The Whispers, Stevie Wonder and R. Kelly. I still listen to classic music because I feel that’s where the soul and foundation of music was built.
