Lyrical Musician / Urban Philanthropist / Founder of HHIM Foundation

      Thed Weller is one of those anomalies that you can't explain but delight in nonetheless.  His music reminds you of why you fell in love with hip hop and how you know it still has a pulse.   Thed's sophomore album entitled Better Than I Can Tell You "thankfully returns southern hip hop to its rightful place, one of intelligence and musical acumen, without losing an ounce of soul in the process - Fleabomb.com."  This follow up to his award winning debut album Ain't No Pillows on the Road  is not only a collection of memorable rhymes, melodic choruses and powerful commentary but it also is a testament to what he's doing outside of his musical career.  All proceeds of his albums go to benefit The Hip Hop Is Music Foundation (HHIM).  A nonprofit he's started to provide college scholarships and other educational opportunities to hip hop artists.
      He has also worked on the Emmy Award Winning Alabama Public Television documentary Mr. Dial Has Something to Say.  He, along with several other Alabamaartist, made history when they put together the first Motion Picture Soundtrack ever to accompany an APT documentary. His commitment to the educational future of our youth is also evident in his non-performing career.  Thed spends his days educating the youth of the Bessemer City School System as a 6th grade teacher.
