TJ Carroll’s Chill “Time To Waste” Packs a Punch

“Time To Waste” finds TJ Carroll easing out of battle mode after last being heard going to “WAR” alongside fellow Florida native WXLF. Produced by Dylan Hyde and released just in time for Valentine’s Day, the Chill-Rap record pairs smooth, late-night energy with moments of quiet emotional depth.

Cutting through nightlife distractions and surface-level connections, the song centers on choosing something real—built on trust, love, and purpose. With reflective lyrics touching on distance, timing, and divine guidance, TJ balances vulnerability and confidence, presenting himself as an artist led by conviction rather than impulse.
