Tone'x-God is Love Not to long ago I started a thread about great gospel singers and someone suggested that I take a listen to Tonex's music. I'd just like to say thank you to whom ever that person was because since then I have taken a listen to his music and it is great!!! . I love it and so far my favorite tune is "God Is Love." The song is quite simply beautiful and straight to the point in it's message. So thank you again to that Orger who recommended his music . What do you think of the song? Do you even like this artist?

I discovered Tonex years ago. His "Personal Jesus" was fading in and out on my radio, and I kept hearing enough snippets to know he was the closest thing to Prince in gospel music that I'd heard.
Around that time, he was embroiled in a Prince-like war with his label, and the disc was nearly impossible to find. "Pronounced Toe-Nay" was released about a year or so later. He deals with sex, drugs, ego, power, money, cultural and religious tolerance -- he's one of the most relevant and industry-unsupported artists (of any genre) on the scene today. As such, he's in a tremendous position to minister to folks. . [Edited 7/5/06 13:21pm] | |

That was me, Nursey And ya welcome...Now, did you get his debut album? Ridiculously off the chain! I haven't heard God is Love though. [Edited 7/5/06 13:43pm] Living to die and I'll die to live again - 360 degrees - comprehend | |

And yes, Personal Jesus was his debiut single off his debut album "Pronounced Toe-nay" - he's got jazz, neo soul, r&b, and traditional gospel on that debut and it's broken down in sections just like that. You HAVE to get that. Living to die and I'll die to live again - 360 degrees - comprehend | |
