He was born in Chicago but he was raised in Cleveland. My mom's sister in Cleveland said he grew up in East Cleveland which is a bad neighborhood because I didn't know what area he lived in. I remember in rapper 50 Cent's Get Rich Or Die Tryin movie, Terrence told 50 Cent when Terrence was leaving prison, if you're ever in Cleveland look me up. Terrence is a very good actor and I like several of his movies like Sunset Park, Four Brothers, Animal, The Jacksons An American Dream, Crash, The Brave One, Get Rich Or Die Tryin and Dead Man Down.
