T.O.K

The New York Times once described them as “the world’s greatest reggae-dancehall boyband.” T.O.K. – an acronym for “Touch of Klass” – began in Kingston, Jamaica in the early 1990s. by the mid-to-late-90s, T.O.K. began working with Richard “Shams” Browne, and on their second release together, “Hardcore Lover,” featuring Lady Saw, the collaboration bore fruit, breaking the group to new fans across the world. In 2001, they released their debut album My Crew, My Dogs, songs like “Money 2 Burn” and “Shake Yuh Bam Bam” pushed the group to broader audiences, though it was 2005’s Unknown Language that turned them into international sensations, “Gal You Ah Lead” and “Footprints,” peaked at #85 and #93 on the Hot 100, respectively. T.O.K achieved gold and platinum sales in Japan. “Guardian Angel” broke out as the #1 single in Japan, prompting the release of “Our World,” in 2009. T.O.K. maintained dominance into the next decade, collaborating with Major Lazer on the single “Shell It Down” in 2013. In 2015, the group put their music on pause, choosing instead to pursue solo endeavors. Now, the group is back together, signifying the next step in their evolution with the name change from “Touch of Klass” to “Tribe of Kings.” The single “NPLH (Home),” produced by @ShamsTheProducer, cemented their return in February of 2023, followed by "Sexy Time" in July, prod by Dave Kelly. T.O.K. is looking forward to reconnecting with fans worldwide as they gear up to embark on their next world tour.
