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.

The lyrics to Tony Toni Toné's "Feel Good" are all about the attraction between two people who are deeply connected with each other. The song is divided into two parts - the verses, which talk about the moments shared between the two, and the chorus which repeats the refrain "It feels good" throughout.
The first few lines in the lyrics suggest that the song should be played frequently, and as it becomes easier to listen to, it should be played once a day, or as needed. The chorus follows, and the lead vocalist sings, "It feels good," repeatedly, emphasizing the emotions felt when together.
In the verses, the singer highlights the moments shared with the significant other, mentioning that they should never change, and expressing how much they are into each other. The lyrics also mention the comfort of knowing that your loved one will always be by your side and how relaxing that feels. The song ends with the lyrics, "I feel it all over me, and it feels good," indicating that the feelings shared between them are all-encompassing and positive.

Real instruments are not always played people.
Please stop. This was a music VIDEO.
Please understand how they are made.
Please understand how concerts are today.
All that jumping around and no reflection of it in their voice from the song you hear off the Cassette/CD/Radio should tell you something.
Live? Luther Van Dross concert was LOVE singing and you ca. HEAR the difference. It wasn't bad by any means. When. I went to a concert I paid to HEAR YOU SING... all the creative dancing is extra.
Again... I PAID to HEAR you SING.
I can listen to a CD any day and of course now it is all streaming. 🎶
Patti was another LIVE REAL singer I enjoyed.
These singers now put on dance shows to a track that they lipsync.
One popular artist got caught doing the National Anthem lipsyncing. 😏
Anyway...
It was a good song. I still enjoy hearing it.
Today most of the music to me is trash or borrowed from someone else.
I miss my R&B of Atlantic Starr, Cameo, SOS Band, Gap Band, Enchantments, etc...
@marciimeris503
@Gregory Howard worst boomer take ever "music is borrowed" you're the kinda person that allows the dua Lipa case to go to trial and not just get tossed in the trash for having 0 merit.
First of all, you go to a concert you don't "PAY TO HEAR THEM SING" You go for the live performance.
Rarely in a concert venue can you hear the singer clearly just because of how loud the other instruments tend to be. You can hear enough to follow along, but rarely rarely can you notice mistakes in pitch etc.
You're at the concert for a PERFORMANCE. That includes the smoke, lights, etc. If the band uses that. Just because (generic country singer #5027472) sits in one spot on stage and plays his music. Doesn't mean every band is going to do the same.
I've seen a band with 0 stage presence in the same lineup with starset a band with extreme amounts of stage presence... it was way more fun to watch starset.
These bands also don't owe you ANYTHING. Thinking they do is what takes the soul outta music!
