Anniversary is such a quintessential masterpiece. I realized recently that the song begins the day before the anniversary, then it speaks of the plans for the day, then there is a musical interlude, then the day comes and the celebration begins. The instruments take us on a journey. The extended version is even better than the short radio version.
Just saw their live show a few weeks ago.. AMAZING!! Everyone could barely contain themselves in their seats.. 2.5hrs of pure bliss. Every song, every note and the energy was amazing, esp seeing a whole new generation in the crowd to witness one of the BEST R&B Acts.. BRAVO, BRAVO, !! So glad you're back on tour and the beautiful energy you put into every song!
Absolutely legendary, I can vividly remember 1st hearing " little Walter," "It Feels Good" and all the other hits and I was only between 8 - 10 years old at the time when they first came out. And the hits continued, from elementary school to high school and college. I would definitely be at the Memphis or the Nashville show. Hands down, one of my favorite groups of all time.
I love "i care" also Tim. That is a beautiful song. She didnt even ask Raphael favorite song. Im so happy they all back together i cant wait for Jacksonville show.
I totally enjoyed seeing Tony Toni Tone in New Orleans. It was so great to hear live music and to see these talented musicians vibing. It was a great experience! Thank you for the gift of music and for taking us down memory lane. I truly hope they felt the love. Get your ticket, you definitely won't be disappointed.
WOW! Tony! Toni! Toné! What a pleasant surprise. I grew up on this band. I remember watching the video for _Feels Good_ and my mom tellin' me to scoot back from the tv. I've been a fan ever since. _Whatever You Want..._ Don't get me started on that gem. I'll be here all night picking it apart. I'll just say that I get an inexpressible feeling inside whenever I hear it. And then you have 1993's _Anniversary_ which is just a sweet burst of nostalgia. So many warm memories done flooded my memory bank right nah. Told y'all about that 1993 nah. WHEW! What a year.
Great interview!! Thank you for asking about how they came up with the name! 😀 I just saw them Sept. 30th and omg they were Phenomenal!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥 I definitely want to see them again!! I was so excited they were back together and touring!! Love their songs! 🏆 One of my favorite groups!! 🤩
So many people in their feelings on here. I honestly don’t care about the band drama. I’ve always been about the music. I don’t even know the names of the others who were replaced. I’ve been in bands my whole life and the others have gone on to have wonderful careers. So what? Life goes on. It always comes back to the music
If you knew what happened between them all you wouldn’t be so flippant about the situation. Millions of dollars. They did this to their own blood family. But yes life does go on and the original band is doing their own thing now.
@@joybostic5084 all of that is explained in detail in the documentary “Loyalty No Royalty” that was released in 2019 (?). This includes interviews with the record execs. However the documentary is no longer available. There is a legal case right now.
@@heartnsoulloveWas Jubu a part of that? Because I'm just learning about Jubu Smith and how he played and taylored the Guitar sound and he wasn't given his credits which means probably no real money ither(producer credits). Ppl don't care when it isn't them not getting their proper due.
I love them, the concert was Epic at the Chicago theater even though we couldn't record cause they made us lock our phones, but definitely memorable 😁❤
This was great to see, now all we need is En Vogue to get back together, all 5 members( including Rhonda) and these great groups are coming back. Because they I think see R&B needs that extra spark. NE now TTT let's keep it going.
Just saw them in Nashville. The crowd erupted when the intro to Anniversary started. I could literally feel the vibration of the music and crowd singing. It was AMAZING!!!
MANNNNN! just saw these guys in Atlanta and they were on my music bucket list ✔️ I wanted them to sing STILL A MAN & WILD CHILD and a few others, but i was appreciative with what they gave us. I AM A DAY 1 FAN! LOVE THESE GUYS! 💪🏾💯🎵🎙
All seriousness if you are under 30 years old. I want you to be put on notice that these are some of the baddest brothers to ever do music. The 4th member is Jubu Smith! He is the guitarist that you hear on most of those hit records!
The real band was in some of videos and played live. These three along with management suppressed the other members. Check out the original Oakland bands video.
Tony Toni Tone was in town. Before you mentioned it, yes , I know Raphael is not with the group. I saw them perform without him. Chicago is not the town to sell tickets and perform poorly!🤔
@@TheBbtlegit No doubt! I love hearing Jubu 🎸!! Carl wheeler and all, but this happens in all bands. Some members can be replaced some can’t. 🤷🏾♂️They were touring without Raphael and guess what… just wasn’t the same. Any how, all their albums had 3 people on the cover. I just love the music. Jubu and them doing their thing with Maze and I love it!
The original TTT was 6 members not just 3. They dogged the other members out & kicked them to the curb. Even though the other members helped write the hit songs. The 3 touring now took all the money & acted like they weren't on the original recordings.
Their debut album (who?) never gets its flowers - Little Walter (their 1st hit) and Born Not To Know are still a vibe. Anniversary is my least favorite song from them only because it was played to death.
BiggTae I share the same sentiments!!! That was some bullshit they put down and it seems as though they would take this time to make things right !!!! Really disappointed in these cats they were my fav group back during this time and I had a band at that time and to think my fellow band mates(and they were also family in TTT)would stab me like that wow that’s just the unthinkable….. these guys are rats I would rather see 3tob and hear the real tone toni Tony sound !!!! 😡
As a long TTT fan! Cant suppport this new tour knowing how they dogged out the original band. Who played a key role in the music & writing of the hits @ there height! To do a reunion without them is not cool!

YEEES .. And that Guitar sound was Jubu Smith... Never knew that, always thought it was Dwayne playing ALL the Guitar.
Anniversary was masterfully produced. The “extended” version is magic. The outro…*chef’s kiss*
Listen to it literally everyday.❤
Toni is back. The Fugees is back. Man what an amazing time for black music

Never thought I'd see these brothas reunite, yet here we are. 😊😊😊
❤just saw them in Charlotte. Fantastic show with live band and background singers. 10/10!!

Hands down one of my favorite groups loved their music still do to this day
I love seeing them all together again! Listening to them is like eating my favorite, home cooked, comfort food. This reunion is like Magic!

I had always said when these Cats were Young in The Day I wanted Mint Condition to Tour with Them! Two Live Bands that sound Good, Real Musicians!
I couldn’t survive that 😭😭😭😭
Having seen them last month, I'm glad the entire concert was just them. They were Phenomenal! 🔥🔥🔥

I went to the show at Radio City Music Hall and it was amazing!
“I Care” is underrated.
The whole CD was on repeat in my house.
I am 45 and always love this group❤❤❤❤

Don’t get my hopes up!!
From that period, Guy and TTT are my go-to jam makers.
The ending of anniversary is epic it gives a Marvin Gaye affect
That Guitar go crazy..
Just saw them in Nashville. The crowd erupted when the intro to Anniversary started. I could literally feel the vibration of the music and crowd singing. It was AMAZING!!!
Yes Need a new album.
Runnin’ to Apple Music to stream my fav Tony Toni Tone jams!🙌🏼
R&B is not dead
I love them 😭💙💙 October 19 I see them
MANNNNN! just saw these guys in Atlanta and they were on my music bucket list ✔️ I wanted them to sing STILL A MAN & WILD CHILD and a few others, but i was appreciative with what they gave us. I AM A DAY 1 FAN! LOVE THESE GUYS! 💪🏾💯🎵🎙
Everyone is tired of the ghetto, thot and Gantsa garbage, Soul, R & B is classy and sophisticated and so needed again.
One ofmy favorite groups being back good memories ❤
I can't wait 💯
I pray they do another tour or just some more dates. It was sooo good seeing them in 2023. More shows, please…🙏🏽
Greatness❤❤❤❤❤
I just went back into time to the 90s decade. ❤❤
Oh wow … my favourite band.
Why no mention of Hey Little Walter?
Yall were in Chicago 17 days ago!!!?! I am so 😩😩😩😭😭😭 I missed it😭😭😭😣 Come back!!
It's about damn time!!!
Can’t believe I missed it.
My favourite song frfr
I need the original band members back also
Yayyyyyyyyyy 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Bless up.👊🔥
I’m sorry yall feel that way but the fans really don’t know or care! This tour is a smash!!! We just love the music!!
The ending of anniversary is epic it gives a Marvin Gaye affect
Their concert at Radio City Music Hall was freakin' amazing
Legends☝🏿💯🔥🔥🔥👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Yep!!!
I definitely wanna come.. this my type of muxiq 💪🏾🙏🏾
Oooh this my song
Super epic. 🙏🏼👍🏼🙏🏼
So, i guess they got all the money disputes all sorted out, huh..?
Well, good. Time for more T T T music. The world needs em.
I hope they took care of Jubu.
@@reyalexiswilliams7683you know they didn’t
I’m in ❤️ again Omg ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 back to being 13
I hope T³ does a couple of single week stints in Vegas ala EWF, over the next two years.
The melody of “Little Walters” instrumentation is dope
True R&B has NEVER been dead, it's just record companies are not marketing it like they used to towards the mainstream unless it sounds a certain way.
Bout dam time 👍

No shade to Raphael, but Duane has a nice voice too.
They dont make em like this anymore 😢
Tony toni tone vs Mint condition = The last of the greats to ever do it outside of Babyface/Reid, Jim jam/Terry Lewis Prince R.Kelly.
One of my favorite artist; Raphael Saadiq!
Geniuses
🙏🏾
The real band was in some of videos and played live. These three along with management suppressed the other members.
Check out the original Oakland bands video.
When is the album dropping?im impatiently waiting 😂
Is it just me or does Tim Riley look just like Ricky Smiley??? 😮
Get that money fellas! Sing those old ass songs, I mean classics!
I SWEAR HE TOOK THE WORDS OUT MY MOUTH HE LIKED I CARE BECAUSE HE WROTE IT BUT SIR THAT WAS NOT A HIT OKURRR???!!!😅😅😅
ua-cam.com/video/JCUvEceOOfs/v-deo.htmlsi=MjEohmTaw2hrZiaC
I care was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. They had a lot of joints that weren't singles that I liked more than the hits
@@Marvin-ut4xsI care was definitely a sleeper. I played that a lot.
@@Empresslockness FACTS
...and THEE ONLY version of ANNIVERSARY I will listen to is the 9min version. Anything else is just torture.

I agree. Them kicking out the original members of the band wasn't cool at all.
What original members? All I ever knew was the 3. Nobody really cares about the complete band.
@joe_smalls Speak for yourself. Real fans know the other members including Jubu Smith.
@@TheBbtlegit No doubt! I love hearing Jubu 🎸!! Carl wheeler and all, but this happens in all bands.

@joe_smalls No you are wrong look at the revival album cover all 6 members are there.
@@TheBbtlegit ok thanks
No Jubu???
🙌🏼❤️🎶🫶🏼🎵
Im confused isnt that the original 3 right there like what yall saying again??
ua-cam.com/video/J2PC7QRphfo/v-deo.htmlsi=_zitZY3rXzC7nITO

Do your research they were originally a 6 member band.
@BIGGTAE415 Exactly and what makes it more despicable weren't they close family members.
Carl wheeler,Antrone,Elijah Baker,Jubu..and the singer they used in place of Raphael was Amar Khalil
Damn they are fine.
I still can't forget how they did jubu and don't give him his credit
They should’ve never left
If Jubu not there it's not the same magic
They did him wrong
@@joef7520 Agreed 👍🏾
What did they do to him?
Dewayne Wiggins, looking like somebody grandpop
He is,lol. He's 62 years old. He still looks great though when I saw them a couple weeks ago
#jubu
Still waiting 🤔
Who's Grandma is that?
Their debut album (who?) never gets its flowers - Little Walter (their 1st hit) and Born Not To Know are still a vibe.
Anniversary is my least favorite song from them only because it was played to death.
🤔Sad they still not mentioning the other original musicians that played and wrote many of their songs!🤷♂️
The consistant background music behind the interview while they are speaking is distracting.
BiggTae I share the same sentiments!!! That was some bullshit they put down and it seems as though they would take this time to make things right !!!!

Facts
You forgot one house party2 song I don't know what you came to do.
God is real y'all he see the wrong try to make it wright ! Anniversary is a kingdom song Gods, 6palms sounds like something from hell
Man I needed that
As a long TTT fan! Cant suppport this new tour knowing how they dogged out the original band. Who played a key role in the music & writing of the hits @ there height! To do a reunion without them is not cool!
