    Raphael is a born leader, even though he may not feel comfortable with that title. True Tonies fans have been waiting on this tour 🙌 ❤❤❤

      Did you hear how he treated Dawn from EnVouge and Lucy Pearl his jealous ways?

    • @TheCakediva08
      @TheCakediva08 10 месяцев назад +4

      It was the other way around. Dawn and her husband was the problem. Dawn was also the reason En Vouge was kicked off the Luther Vandross tour. She is known for having a horrible attitude

      @Thetannery68 10 месяцев назад

      Exactly- En Vogue wants nothing to do with Dawn! Raphael was warned about her, but gave her an opportunity to redeem herself. She really took that Diva thang to her own demise. How you going to blame other people for your own bad decisions while you and your husband controlled your own finances. Get outta here with all that garbage.

    I'm a huge Tonyies fan, I'm 41 and I've been a fan since 1989 when I heard "little walter". They all look amazing and I love Tim and how he doesn't say much I'm the same way. I'm trying to find that song they trying to find, I believe I heard that song before in the 80s as a kid. I want to say it could be Living Colour, 52nd Street, Black Box

    I'm so happy for new music. My daughter just saw them in Nashville Wednesday and she said they were wonderful. Sound just like themselves with a band and everything. She was so glad she went by herself and was so glad she did. I told her I wish I could have been there. Can't wait for this music.

    I had the opportunity to visit Dewayne's studio, that was in his house. That was an incredible night, Jody Watley stop by, Master P stopped by, with a young Beyonce. He was mentoring her at the time. Great night!

    Raphael always said they will get back together again one day. I am glad that is has finally happened. We need more real soul music out there and these guys can really dish it. I hope they will not be like Floetry who came back together and broke up quickly again.

    They need to pay the other members who really wrote all the songs and who were left off the credits on the albums and denied there full payment and acknowledgement of achievements.

    Nice interview with music singers Tony Toni Tone. It's too late for Tony Toni Tone to be doing a new album LOL. They should've did albums a long time ago after House Of Music. LOL@Timothy Riley glasses. LOL@Dwayne Wiggins glasses. Raphael Wiggins should've never left Tony Toni Tone. I like The Revival, Sons Of Soul, House Of Music albums. Tony Toni Tone, The Jacksons(RIP Michael Jackson), Luther Vandross(RIP), Vanity(RIP), Florence Ballard of The Supremes(RIP), Cameo, Midnight Star, Beyonce Knowles are my favorite black music singers.

      They can still put out a new album, I just hate it took so long to get back together. Raphael could have done solo albums while in Tony Toni Tone. I understand why they had to split and focus on them.
