Troy Taylor (record producer)
Troy Christopher Taylor is an American record producer, singer, and songwriter best known for his production work and mentorship of R&B singer Trey Songz. Taylor is also the CEO of Songbook Entertainment, and has worked extensively with acts including The Isley Brothers, Aretha Franklin, Patti LaBelle, Whitney Houston, and Boyz II Men. Taylor, signed in early 1990 to a solo record deal with Motown, decided to instead explore songwriting and production for other artists, placing records from his unreleased debut album on other projects he was writing for at the time. A portion of the album was eventually released in 2021. In the 1990s/early 2000s, Taylor, alongside Charles Farrar, was a member of The Characters: a production duo that worked on Boyz II Men's Cooleyhighharmony, as well as with Kenny Lattimore.
