Meet TUE a.k.a Thee United Empire, A Midwest music duo bringing their pop-rap appeal and fun, relatable lyrics to your ears, heart, and soul one song at a time. The charismatic duo united together in 2010 to pursue their dreams and instantly recognized each other's shared passion for writing and recording music. They started working with an indie label known as, Who Dun It Entertainment. After 5 years of making music and opening shows the two felt the desire and need to separate themselves from the indie label. Soon after, they met Artist Manager/Music Producer Matt Sapp, the three instantly shared the same vision which lead to the birth of TUE a.k.a Thee United Empire in 2015.

 

The TUE duo is formed of Michael Patrick Foerster a.k.a Big Mike and Corey Pierre a.k.a Chorus Joe. Mike was born in Memphis, TN, but raised in Hawley, MN where he would eventually meet TUE's other half, Corey. CJ was born and raised in Minneapolis, MN. Big Mike and CJ both grew up in the 90's and 2000's and like to instill that era of Hip-Hop into their music. They aim to bring the hustle and struggles of their lives into relatable lyrics while still bringing you music you can experience their fun side with. The duo has opened shows for artist such as: Yung Joc, Lil' Scrappy, DJ Unk, Gorilla Zoe, Huey, Shop Boyz, ASAP Ferg, and Bone, Thugs, & Harmony.

 

TUE is currently working on their highly anticipated debut EP titled, Rise of an Empire, coming early 2016! A Midwest and National tour is in planning for 2016. To stay tuned with TUE news and their musical journey, visit them at: tueofficial.com
