House of Music

''House of Music'' is the fourth studio album by American R&B group Tony! Toni! Toné!, released on November 19, 1996, by Mercury Records. It is the follow-up to their critically and commercially successful 1993 album ''Sons of Soul''. Recording sessions for the album took place at several recording studios in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Oakland, and Sacramento during 1995 to 1996, with production handled primarily by the group members. The album was named after a record store in the group's native Oakland.
Following their hiatus as a group, Tony! Toni! Toné! members Raphael Saadiq, D'wayne Wiggins, and Timothy Christian Riley worked on songs for the album independently before putting together their finished recordings. Collectively, they sought to emphasize musicianship rather than production technique during the sessions. ''House of Music'' expands on their previous work's traditional R&B influences with live instrumentation and balladry. Music writers have noted the album for its incorporation of traditional and contemporary musical styles, themes of love and romance, and witty, sensitive lyrics.
''House of Music'' reached number 32 on the ''Billboard'' 200, on which it charted for 31 weeks. It was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The record received widespread acclaim from critics, who praised its musical style, classic influences, and the group's musicianship and songwriting. An expected international tour in support of the album did not materialize, and ''House of Music'' proved to be the group's last album together, as they subsequently disbanded due to creative differences and pursued separate music careers.
== Background ==
Following the commercial and critical success of their 1993 album ''Sons of Soul'', Tony! Toni! Toné! took a hiatus as a group. During their break, the group's main members Raphael Wiggins, D'wayne Wiggins, and Timothy Christian Riley worked on songwriting and production for other recording artists, including D'Angelo, En Vogue, Karyn White, Tevin Campbell, and A Tribe Called Quest. Raphael Wiggins adopted the surname Saadiq for his professional name in 1994,〔 meaning "man of his word" in Arabic, and released his solo single "Ask of You" in 1995.〔 Their work outside the group led to rumors of a break-up during the time between albums.〔
''House of Music'' was titled after the name of a record store in the group's native Oakland, California, which had closed several years prior to the album's release.〔 In an interview for ''Billboard'', D'wayne Wiggins said of naming the album, "We title all our albums at the end of the project. We sat back and listened to everything, and it reminded us of this mom-and-pop store around our way in Oakland."〔 The album's cover and booklet photos were taken by photographer William Claxton.
