With an "alright, this time it's for real" promise, Toby Mac turns the keys of the ignition and hits the gas on Portable Sounds, his third and most impressive solo effort to date. The musician-producer sounds more confident and comfortable than ever before, deftly mixing elements of rap, rock, pop, R&B, funk, and even a little reggae into a deliciously creative entrée. Some of the "joints on this record" as Toby Mac's boy TruDog calls them fall more into one style or another. Yet the world party sound that Toby Mac introduced on his previous Diverse City is built upon here with the opening "One World" as well as "No Ordinary Love." Pop flavors more tracks than before with guitar-driven numbers like "Made to Love," "I'm For You," and the infectious "Suddenly." Fans will also be pleased as TruDog is indeed back on the ridiculously cute "Hype Man." Urgent rockers like "Ignition" and the silky smooth "Lose My Soul" give even more spice and variety to liven up an already electric mix. The latter track is finely tuned with guest vocals from Kirk Franklin and Toby Mac pal Mandisa. Much like Sting, Toby Mac has transcended a former identity (as part of the D.C. Talk super group) and grown into an artist worthy of merit on his own. Portable Sounds stands up to repeated listens with a fresh and energetic sound and a buoyant and unapologetic joy seldom heard. --Michael Lyttle

What separates tobyMac from other Christian artists is, in my opinion, his unwavering lyrics from the truth and the center of each theme focused on God alone. His music is high quality and his vocals are very emotive and cut through the music ever so well, along with his raps, it combines for a unique sound.
This album can be musically classified as, Rock/Pop/Rap/Funk and my favorite songs would have to be "One World", "Made To Love", "Boomin'", "I'm For You", "No Ordinary Love", "Ignition", and last but not least "Lose My Soul".
Those are 7 top notch songs you are getting and this album is certainly worth every penny. Along with the DVD of his music videos, you really do get a bonus, especially in the form of "Gone", which is somewhat of a pop-punk song and also "Irene" which speaks for itself and really is one of a kind.
The 3 best songs on the album itself would have to be (in order): "Made To Love", "Lose My Soul", and "I'm For You". I really can't wait to hear what Toby comes up with on his next albums.
God Bless tobyMac!

2ndアルバムのDiverse Cityとも違う雰囲気のアルバムです。
何のジャンルとも決め難い。
Tobymacのすごいところは、
このようにアルバムの中の雰囲気を
一貫させているところにもあると思います。
portable soundsは今まで出たアルバムの中で
最も歌の部分が多い。
Tobymac以外の人の歌やラップの部分もとても増えました。
もちろん、Tobymacのおしゃれなラップも健在ですし、
激な曲もバッチリ入ってます。
激な曲は、今までよりもヘビーになった感じもします。
Tobymacにはいつも
新しいことに挑戦しようと言う気持ちがあると思います。
それが、このアルバムに顕著に表れています。
あと、何か、このアルバムはすごく面白い部分があります。
トラック3のBoomin'/Opera Tripというのは、
Boomin'の後にOpera Tripが入っていると言うことですが、
そのOpera Tripがすごく笑える…
1人で聴いてて1人でニヤけてしまいました;
Tobyのアルバムにこんなのが入っちゃっていいの?という感じ。
あと、わたしがいつも密かに楽しみにしている
Trudogですが、彼自身成長してきていますので、
ラップの部分が長くなっています。
Das ist Musik vom feinsten zum Cruisen. Toby Mac versteht es immer wieder gute Launemusik zu machen. Klare Kaufempfehlung!
