BUILT IN THE DARK — 11 songs | dropping 11/11!!

From heavy days and empty rooms to finding my footing, feeling joy again, and being grateful I’m still here. This album follows that whole journey.

For anyone still working their way toward the light—there’s a place for you in these songs.

Turn the sound up. This is your first step inside. 🎧

Which track title on the cover speaks to you?

One clip wasn’t enough? Here’s another. 😏🎙️

“Not Done Yet,” live into my phone. Same voice you heard on “Dark Light.” Same voice behind the AI model I use in my music. Mine!

AI is part of my studio. It isn’t my identity.

And if you’re wondering how much I’ve got left… watch me. 🔥

AI didn’t give me a voice. I gave the AI mine. 🎙️

This is me singing “Dark Light” live, straight into my phone. No polished master. No stem editing. Just my actual voice!

The voice I use in my music was modeled from my own vocals. My tone. My delivery. My identity.

AI is part of my studio. It isn’t my identity. I edit the stems, refine the vocals, mix, and master to shape each finished Tony D record.

So when you hear “Dark Light”… this is where that voice comes from. 🖤

“Not Done Yet” + “Better Days” are OUT NOW! 🔥☀️

Still more to give. Still more to look forward to.

“Not Done Yet” is for anyone who knows their story isn’t finished. “Better Days” is that windows-down, music-up reminder to enjoy the good moments you fought to reach.

Two releases from my Built In The Dark journey. I’m proud to share both with y’all.

Listen on Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube. Which one are you playing first? 👇

Some battles don’t happen in the light.

They happen in the silence… in the shadows… in the parts of yourself nobody else gets to see.

**DARK LIGHT — Tony D**
Available now on all streaming platforms!!

"Built in the dark. Still standing in it."

Seven years ago, I was honored to be invited to perform twice as an opener for my longtime friend @dsmileywarrior !! These would be my first live performances since 2008. They were incredible experiences that would reignite my love and passion for music and singing!
Although it would take me seven years to finally release my own music, I’ve finally done it!!

The song you’re hearing now is my newest release, “Heavy Days”

I wrote this song based on my own experiences battling depression and stress and continuing to carry forward and persevere.

If you can relate, drop a like, comment, and follow for more music that’s real, honest, and relatable! 🙏🏾

“Heavy Days” is out now!!
