Sone drops his new album 'Dirty Laundry' on April 4th, resurrection day. It is a day of great meaning to him as a born again Christian. The album opens a new chapter in his career and features more outside artists than any other album to date. Sone told us that every feature on the album was ordained by God for reasons that were only revealed after the songs were already written and recorded. He digs up some of the past with a sequel to 'Just Breathe' from his first album. As he airs out his dirty laundry, could this be a hint of more sequels to come?
'Beautiful' is a song from the album that Sone impressed he holds most dear. The hook was written a cappella by his daughter, Ahlia, for one of her friends in her third grade class. Her friend was being constantly bullied by the other classmates and she wanted to make her feel special and beautiful exactly how God made her by writing a song just for her. Psych Owens, the other featuring artist, wrote his verse to a drum pattern alone in which Sone built the beat around. His verse speaks of falling away from Christ only to be redeemed and washed new. Little did he know Sone's plans for 'Dirty Laundry' at the time. Sone also worked landscaping with Psych Owens' mom who played a lead role in Sone's coming to Christ. Relentless, she sat and prayed with and for him everyday for the year that they worked together and he told us he cannot express how grateful he is for that.
'Silence' is a track that Sone also highlighted from the album. He spoke to the subject of the inner thoughts we hold inside that are only shared with God. Reflecting that overthinking can be deadly to the soul and healed only through prayer. Sometimes we just need to take and step back in silence and rest with the Holy Spirit.
'I Will Be Your Diary' is Sone's promise to God. As God has been faithful time and time again in the transformation of his life, he promises in turn to be faithful to what God asks of him; To use his given gifts as an instrument and example for others. Through his walk God has shown him how to let others into his heart again and how to have compassion for their pain where he didnt before so they may be transformed and made clean as well. Sone will take this album on tour with his prison and juvenile detention ministry as well as his street ministry.
Sone has commenced on a careful mission to seek only purpose and understanding rather than recognition or validation. He opens and dumps his bag of dirty laundry at the foot of the cross and challenges his listeners to do the same. Telling a story of filthy pieces that were once broken, gathered and reforged into something better than before and the truth about how Jesus can make you clean and new again. Zachariah 3:3 - Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the Angel. Then He answered and spoke to those who stood before Him, saying, “Take away the filthy garments from him.” And to him He said, “See, I have removed your iniquity from you, and I will clothe you with rich robes.”
