Teddy Bishop is an American R&B producer, songwriter, and keyboardist best known for writing and/or producing hits "Let's Ride", "Just Be a Man About It", "Miss You", and "Torn", among others. Bishop's various productions cross genre lines, and the albums his contributions are housed on have reportedly sold more than 60 million copies worldwide.[1]

In the early 1990s, Bishop was mentored by notable musician-turned label executive Antonio "LA Reid" Reid, who signed him to a production deal under his Atlanta-based label LaFace Records.[2] As one half of production duo Tim & Ted (with fellow musician Tim Thomas), one of his first commissioned projects was Toni Braxton's 1993 multi-platinum eponymous debut album, on which he contributed album cut "Love Affair", and played keyboard on key hit "Another Sad Love Song".[3] Bishop also co-produced and co-wrote debut single "Call Me a Mack" alongside new LaFace signee Usher for the 1993 Poetic Justice Soundtrack. These appearances resulted in requests to work with many other artists on the label and in the greater Atlanta area, including 4 contributions to gospel act Dawkins & Dawkins' 1994 second album Necessary Measures, "Sexy Day" for LaFace signees A Few Good Men, and vocal arrangements for Bobby Brown & Whitney Houston duet "Something In Common".
