Timeline

Rene Francisco Sotomayor, better known by the stage name T-Bone, is a Christian rapper.

His father was Nicaraguan and his mother is Salvadoran.

His name came from being called 'Bones' as a youngster because he was very Skinny.

The 'T' was "added to give the name a little slang edge."

According to published interview, he started rapping at the age of seven at parties and in rap battles.

He was close to getting a gangsta rap record, but, after changing his life, he opened for a noted rock group at that time which led him to getting signed to his first inspirational record deal that very night.

1993

His first three albums: Redeemed Hoodlum in 1993, Tha Life of a Hoodlum in 1995 and Tha Hoodlum's Testimony in 1996 were released on the independent Metro One record label.

All three albums were characterized by being gangsta rap albums, which was rare in the inspirational music scene at the time.

1997

In 1997, he released History of a Hoodlum, a compilation set of hits from his first three albums was released on the Metro One record label.

2001

After a brief hiatus, T-Bone released his fourth album, and first on the Flicker Records music label, Tha Last Street Preacha, in 2001, to critical acclaim.

Tha Last Street Preacha was nominated for the Rock Gospel Album Grammy Award.

and saw T-Bone break into the contemporary Christian music market.

It was the first rap album to debut at No. 7 on the Christian Contemporary Music charts.

2002

2002 saw an increased exposure of T-Bone to both Christian and mainstream markets with the release of his fifth album, Gospelalphamegafunkyboogiediscomusic.

The album was characterized by the guest appearance of hip-hop legend KRS-One on the title track – returning the favor of the controversial guest spot T-Bone had made on KRS-One's Spiritual Minded album earlier in the year.

2003

T-Bone's first major film role was in 2003, playing the role of Briggs, a rapping prisoner in the comedy-romance motion picture The Fighting Temptations, which starred Cuba Gooding Jr.. and Beyoncé Knowles.

In the film, T-Bone performs the song "To da River" with secular artists Lil Zane and Montell Jordan.

His other films include Carman and Stephen Yake's R.I.O.T. and starred in Black Rose in 2003.

2005

2005 saw the release of his most controversial, and successful, album to date: Bone-A-Fide.

Bone-A-Fide's album cover controversially featured T-Bone in an image evoking Che Guevara, leading to concerns that he was promoting communist ideologies – charges he denied.

Adding to the controversy were collaborations with two major secular rappers: Mack 10 and Chino XL.

Bone-A-Fide was his first album not to be produced by long-time collaborator Chase Dante and, perhaps deliberately, saw T-Bone move away from the previous West Coast sound of his earlier albums to a smoother, more East Coast sound.

Also, in 2005, he was featured as Jairus in the rock opera !Hero, along with Michael Tait of Tait and dc Talk, Rebecca St. James, and Mark Stuart of Audio Adrenaline.
