He's not the most prolific artist, but blame that on the fact that TobyMac wants to cram in a little living between recording sessions. The reward is a rich record that scoots around between hip-hop, reggae and rock. The music is about living passionately, and he does just that on "Me Without You," a hooky, electronic dance track, and the southern funk jam "Thankful for You," a song that is as close to country as TobyMac will get. The album walks the line between swagger and sweetness, from highlight "Forgiveness," featuring Lecrae, to the long-overdue love song "Made for Me."
TobyMac Vs. The Box
Welcome to another edition of The Box, a Rhapsody TV institution wherein you Tweet your questions for a beloved artist, we type and box 'em up, and and said beloved artist provides the answers, picking at random, on camera. Today's contestant is Christian rock superstar TobyMac, who discusses his band's occasionally bizarre behavior (i.e. that time they shot each other with tasers), what he cooks for his kid (omelettes!), and which side he takes in the great Pancakes vs. Waffles debate, and more. The answer to that last one may shock you. Enjoy.
