History
Their first album was released in 1988 and was titled Who?. The album went gold and had several hit singles. The first of these, "Little Walter", went to #1 on the R&B charts. While none of the singles went gold, the next three singles, "Born Not To Know", "For The Love Of You" and "Baby Doll" were all Top 10 R&B singles.
Firmly establishing themselves, the group's second album The Revival was released in 1990 and reached platinum status. The album spawned several #1 R&B hits with "It Never Rains", "Feels Good", and "Whatever You Want", all topping the R&B charts. "Feels Good" was the group's first single to breach the Top 10 of the Hot 100 and managed to go gold.
Furthering the group's success, they released their best selling album to date, Sons Of Soul, in 1993. The album went double platinum and had hit singles: "If I Had No Loot" which hit #7 on the Hot 100, "Anniversary" which reached #10 on the Hot 100, and "(Lay Your Head On My) Pillow" which reached #4 on the R&B charts.
In 1996, the group released their last album to date, House of Music. The album lacked the strong singles of earlier entries, only getting "Thinking Of You" into the top 10 on the R&B charts but the album still managed to go platinum.
Raphael Saadiq released his first solo effort, the Top 20 Billboard hit "Ask of You" from the Higher Learning soundtrack, in 1995. Around the same time, Saadiq became a much-sought-after R&B producer, scoring hits for D'Angelo, Total, The Roots and others. Later in the 2000s, he started a solo career, releasing two albums, Instant Vintage (2002) and Ray Ray (2004).
In 2003, most members of Tony! Toni! Toné! except for Saadiq were invited by Alicia Keys to guest on her album The Diary of Alicia Keys. The song that resulted from that session was called "Diary", and when it was released as a single in the fall of 2004, it gave them their first Top 10 US hit in eleven years. In 2005, Dwayne Wiggins became the band leader for the Weekends at the D.L. television show hosted by comedian D. L. Hughley, which airs on the Comedy Central cable network.
In 2006, the group reunited for the New Jack Reunion Tour, running throughout the U.S.

Whatever You Want
Tony Toni Toné Lyrics
I don't wish you no bad luck baby
I don't wish you no strain
I only want to expose your life to
The finer things
I offer you my company girl
You don't need no sympathy, just me
Some one who cares
[Chorus]
Whatever you want
Girl you know I can provide
Whatever you need (whatever you need baby)
Call six three two twenty-one three five
Now maybe I should drive right over
Show you my new ride
Or take you shopping out on the town
And then make you feel your best
I'll go out of my way to make sure you have everything
I want to be the one who will always be there
To give you
[Chorus: x2]
What makes you think I would try (To run a game on you)
Just as sure as my name is Dwayne (I'll be there for you and I'll)
Treat you just like a queen and give you fine things
And you'll never have to worry about another (in your place)
Believe me when I say
[Chorus: x2]
Now you know I've never been the type to have
A loss for words
So I tell you these feelings I have for you
They're all so true girl
I heard someone say that love can be so blind
I'll give you your space to go and you know I'll always be there for you
What makes you think I would try (To run a game on you)
Just as sure as my name is Dwayne (I'll be there for you and I'll)
Treat you just like a queen and give you fine things
And you'll never have to worry about another (in your place)
Believe me when I say
[Chorus: x2]
Accompaniment
[Chorus]
Girl, I will be right there for you
Whenever you need me just call
Whatever you want
La la la la da da da
La la la la da da da
[Chorus]

My dad died when I was a baby. One of the only visuals I have of him.. is an old Kodak recorded video... him and I are in front of a boom box listening and jamming to this song. I was about 14 months old. So this song has even more value to me ❤️ aside from just being a classic
