Toby From 59th

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. One of my earliest memories with music, hip hop specifically, is, funnily enough, not my memory but a story that my uncle always tells about them recording me rhythmically mumbling a freestyle to a Kirk Franklin instrumental before I could speak. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Kendrick Lamar, To Pimp a Butterfly Khuli Chana, Lost in Time Thandiswa, Sankofa My Favourites change all the time but I can give ypu the most important records to me TPAB inspired my desire to always set and be the standard, as well as the importance of messaging. Lost In Time was consistently present throughout my childhood. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Parables (feat. DIMAL & Prince Luwi)” I think Parables is my best-written piece; some of my best imagery is on that song, the piano is one we tracked ourselves, Luwi did a great job, and Dimal's section ties the record together so beautifully, it's the perfect closer in my opinion. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Putting out my 1st album this year for sure, it was self-released, and we were able to independently present it exclusively at a listening session prior to its release, as well as present it live in show form, and present it in visual form. so that.
