Quando Rondo

Tyquian Terrel Bowman (born March 23, 1999), better known by his stage name Quando Rondo, is an American rapper, singer, and songwriter. He signed with YoungBoy Never Broke Again's namesake record label, an imprint of Atlantic Records shortly after the release of his 2018 single, "I Remember" (featuring Lil Baby). The song received platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and preceded his debut studio album, QPac (2020), which entered the Billboard 200 and contained his second platinum-certified song, "ABG". His second and third albums, Recovery (2023) and Here for a Reason (2024), both failed to chart.

Tyquian Bowman was born and raised in Savannah, Georgia. Before developing an interest in music, Bowman participated in track and field during his high school years. As a teenager, he spent some time in juvenile detention centers. In 2017, he spent months in county jail and was released in October. At that time, he decided to pursue music full-time. During his teenage years, he also joined the Savannah and Atlanta subset of the Rollin' 60s Neighborhood Crips.

His stage name is a play on his nickname, "Quando". He is also a fan of basketball player Rajon Rondo. He grew up listening to Chief Keef, Rich Homie Quan, Young Thug, and Camoflauge.

Bowman adopted his stage name "Quando Rondo" in 2017. It derives from his nickname "Ty-Quando" and "Rondo" was added as he liked the sound of it. Quando's earliest song is dated back to March 1, 2017, after uploading a track titled "Gangsta Bitch" directly to his official SoundCloud page.

In November 2017, after being released from jail, he made a freestyle that he wrote while incarcerated titled "I Remember" on YouTube, which went viral quickly. In January 2018, he released the song "I Remember", featuring rapper Lil Baby. He followed that up with the release of the songs "Motivation" and "Paradise". The videos for all three songs accumulated millions of views on YouTube. This led to the release of his debut mixtape Life B4 Fame on April 17, 2018. Guest appearances such as Lil Baby, Lil Durk, and OMB Peezy. The mixtape also featured Quando's viral track, "ABG" which has accumulated over 71 million views on WorldStarHipHop's official YouTube channel.

In June 2018, Quando Rondo released the single "Kiccin' Shit". Later that month, it was announced that he was the first signee to YoungBoy Never Broke Again's Atlantic Records imprint, Never Broke Again. Following the announcement, Quando's Life B4 Fame was re-released through the NBA, Atlantic imprint.

In August of that year, he and Kevin Gates were featured on the YoungBoy Never Broke Again song, "I Am Who They Say I Am". The following month, Quando Rondo was featured on three of the four tracks of YoungBoy Never Broke Again's 4Loyalty EP.

On September 24, 2018, Quando Rondo released his sophomore mixtape, Life After Fame, a sequel to his debut. The album featured guest verses from Boosie Badazz, JayDaYoungan, Rich Homie Quan, Shy Glizzy, YK Osiris, and NBA YoungBoy. The mixtape proceeded to peak at #174 on the Billboard 200, marking his first entry. He went on to open for SOB X RBE on select tour dates in the United States on their "Global Gangin" tour, which was scheduled to end in December 2018.
