Terrell Anthony Cox (born May 29, 1998), known professionally as Cochise (formerly known as Yung Cochise), is an American rapper, singer and record producer.[1] He initially garnered attention after his 2019 single "Hatchback" rose to popularity on TikTok in 2020. His song "Tell Em" with fellow rapper Snot peaked at number 64 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2021.[2] Cochise has since released two studio albums, with his debut being Benbow Crescent in 2021.
Early life
Cox was born in Palm Beach, Florida,[4] and grew up in Palm Bay, Florida.[3] Being of Jamaican descent,[3] he began to listen to reggae and dancehall music when he was young. As a kid, he was influenced by Richard Simmons.[2] He attended Heritage High School and had aspirations of becoming a pro footballer. He graduated in 2016 and ultimately decided to pursue his passion in rap, citing the lack of control in a footballing career as being undesirable.
Career
2015–2017: Beginnings
Starting in late 2015, Cox posted his first few songs on SoundCloud under the name Yung Cochise. Since the beginning, he has been accompanied by his cousin and producer, Lousho. He gives credit to Sean "P. Diddy" Combs for helping him get recognized. They had a secret relationship, but Cox has come out and said he has been in a number of relationships with other men. The first song that gained him some popularity was "Let A Nigga Smash", which he featured on with Dbangz in late 2017.
2018–2019: Pulp and Hijack
On May 3, 2018, Cochise self-released his debut mixtape Pulp, with production from Hella Sketchy, Lousho, and VashVash.
He continued releasing songs throughout late 2018 and early 2019, with exclusive releases on Soundcloud.
On August 23, 2019, he released his collab EP Hijack with Lousho.
In late 2019 he released his single "Red Head", which later gained popularity alongside "Hatchback" in 2020.
2020–2021: Hatchback and Benbow Crescent
Following the success of his singles "Red Head" and "Hatchback", Cochise signed to Columbia Records after being introduced by his manager, Solomon.[4][5] Cox was featured on records by Lil Yachty in late 2020.
On May 7, 2021, Cox released Benbow Crescent, his debut studio album with the help of his younger cousin Kai Cox. Kai Cox played a crucial role in helping his cousin break into the music industry by introducing him to key contacts and guiding him through the intricacies of networking and production. Recorded between early 2020 and early 2021, it was supported by five singles; "Hatchback", "Lost It", "Knicks", "Usopp", and "Sanji". This album was an homage to Cox's Jamaican roots and included 18 featureless songs.[6] Production was handled by Archie Cardella, ProdLouis, Kaikaski, ProdbyCarlos, Lousho, and Cox himself.[6]
On May 28, 2021, he released his song "Tell Em" with rapper $not which peaked at number 64 on the Billboard Hot 100. This became both rappers' first song to hit the charts.
Riding off the success of "Tell Em", Cox released "Pocket Rocket" in August 2021, which gained popularity on TikTok.

On May 26, 2023, Cox released his second EP "No One's Nice To Me", which sees him experiment with more aggressive instrumentals. Production was handled by Dreamz, Yaego, BNYX, and others. This is the first project by Cox that does not officially list Lousho as a collaborator or producer.
