Damn I just downloaded Tonex album "O2" and it's of the hook. Atleast the first two songs O2 and Bout A Thang. Only ones I have listened to yet though smile



O2 is hot, but it's heavily MJ influenced. Out The Box is where he gets princely. Stand out tracks: God has not forgot, Why and Alive ver 2.0. I'm tellin you, man. Crazy.

Have to check it out.

Res was like fake Neo Soul though, so yeah, you can definitely have that fraudulent shit.

Insane. Insane. The only guy I've ever heard whose live vocals rival Prince's for sheer mastery, control, range and dynamics. Kid sang and danced for two hours, plus took a turn on every instrument and directed a choir. I know it's gospel and thus won't get as much love from radio, but I'm tellin you, no matter who you think is singin right now, Tonex is the next Prince.


Is it better than his debut "Pronounced Toe-nay"...? Cuz that CD was HOT AS SHIT!

It really wasn't Neo-Soul at all, thank God. You can definitely have that watered down, uninspired boring drivel.

In other words that would mean you're allowing me to have Res's fake ass. I'll pass.

Damn, I JUST got the email about 5 minutes after I posted about Tonex to find out that Tonex is retiring:

Yesterday, (1/22) in a shocking revelation to Aundrae Russell during the popular gospel radio show known as Spread the Word on 102.3 Radio Free KJLH, Award-winning, Verity Records artist Tonex announced his retirement from the gospel industry. Originally scheduled to appear on Spread the Word to talk about his participation in the upcoming BET Gospel Celebration, Tonex began to explain his disappointment in the industry and the direction the music is taking...

And while Aundrae and guest co-host Lester Barry were shocked to hear this first hand from the ground breaking artist, Tonex went on to discuss his position. He also pointed out that his blog on www.myspace.com/tonex would explain some of what he is feeling... The blog starts out like this:

"TONEX RETIRES FROM THE MUSIC INDUSTRY

Salutations 2 all,

After long contemplation and much financial & emotional hardship I have decided that Tonex needs go on hiatus from the music industry. I have tried very hard to endure all that I can from being misunderstodd to being down right lied on and I don't physically or emotionally have the capacity to continue on anymore under the current circumstances. My record Label ZLG (Zomba Label Group) has repeatedly ignored my requests for help and they just don't get me as an artist. But I'm not blaming them, it's hard for anyone to really get me as an artist because I am not the normal type of artist. I bow out. And I don't know when I'm coming back. "

We'll have more about Tonex's retirement as the day progresses.. and will post the entire interview with Tonex on our website so that you can hear first hand, the analysis of the gospel music industry and Tonex's retirement announcement... Keep checking www.kjlhradio.com to hear more of Tonex and his sudden retirement from the industry...

Bringing you the news first, It's 102.3 Radio Free KJLH.....


Damn shame. Better buy his shit up now, folks, because it doesn't look like he wants to come back anytime soon, if ever.

I never said she didn't have talent. I definitely think she can sing. It's just that her music (and most neo-soul, for that matter) isn't my cup of tea.
