TobyMac

Toby Mac, one third of the influential DC Talk and the last band member to branch out, has proven to be a solid -- and diverse -- solo force. His music ranges from melodic beats with Latin flair ("Irene"), to hardcore house/hip-hop ("Get this Party Started"), to hilariously brilliant skits ("Triple Skinny," "Tru Dog"). Mac knows engineering like Yo-Yo Ma knows the cello, and his immaculately studio-refined music reflects that passion for production. In just the blink of an album, this mastermind behind DC Talk has established himself as a unique independent performer and producer.
