TONYB. Drops the Seductive New Track "You Knew What This Was" [Premiere]

Nashville artist TONYB. creates soulful R&B dripping with 90's and early 2000's influence. His latest release "You Knew What This Was" is a shining example of his ability to blend smooth, rich vocal tones with snappy beats and ascending melodies to produce something that'll keep you coming back for more, time and time again. His addictive sound brings to mind the likes of D'Angelo meets Seal - a heady concoction of old school R&B with fresh production.

"You Knew What This Was" is the follow up to his debut LP Flashing Lights. The track touches on one’s inability to choose the better path and instead dive headfirst into an undesirable situation. In this circumstance it's to do with the modern "situationship" and everything that comes with it. The songwriter shares, "This comes from the particular perspective of: I made my intentions clear, but you ignored them, so you knew what this was." The relatable song allows others to see that we all make the same mistakes and sometimes our temptations get the better of us. TONYB. further impacts this familiar feeling through the use of his conversational lyrics, enabling us to connect with him on a deeper level.  

With a slew of releases under his belt, TONYB. is proving to be an untouchable force. So remember his name, because you'll be hearing a lot more from him.
