TolumiDE (pronounced toe-LU-mee-day) is on the cusp of becoming a household name in gospel music. In a world of cookie-cutter artists, she is set to take the gospel music community by storm with her eclectic and riveting performances on her debut, full-length CD, ‘My Love’ releasing May 2010. The project is a sonic collage of urban, contemporary gospel, world, soul, inspiration, jazz, and R&B music and of course, African rhythms. But for TolumiDE, music and its differing styles are simply a means to an end; for her, it’s all about delivering the uplifting and eternal message of Christ through song.
Her first full length project, My Love, and simply put, it’s a stunner. Exposing all the musical sides of the artist, My Love is power-packed with one great track after another. The industry has already been abuzz about the singer’s lead single, “My Love”, a funky, infectious pop and urban tune about the artist’s relationship with the Lord. The single’s video, directed by Tayo Abereoje for Black Royal Pictures, has also caught the attention of fans and gospel industry insiders alike with thousands of views on countless video websites. With a thick back beat and a striking urban groove, the hot cut is easily radio ready for urban or contemporary gospel stations. She uniquely packages inspirational messages with brilliant songwriting, flawless production and riveting vocals. Throughout the eleven tracks, all penned by the artist herself, TolumiDE bares her musical soul and takes the listener on an emotive and telling journey of her life and her Lord.
TolumiDE's 'My Love' Album includes Enhanced CD features with bonus screen Savers, Karaoke - Instrumentals, Music Video & Media.
The project is also available digitally on iTunes and Amazon.
