TEDxFIU: A performance by ToBy


Reggie Baril is an independent Haitian-American Hip Hop recording artist from Miami. A senior at FIU majoring in theatre performance, Baril was exposed to music from an early age. He played piano and drums until high school where he discovered his passion for songwriting and rapping.

As ToBy, he’s performed across Florida at venues across such as Revolution Live and Grand Central MIA. Baril recently released his debut mixtape KNGS, which has received national exposure.

His musical ability is only the tip of the iceberg, as Reggie also directs, writes, acts in, and produces most, if not all, of his own content.

Enjoy Baril’s TEDxFIU 2015 performance featured above.
