Music Times UK Exclusive Interview: Tony DeYoung Sets the Record Straight

In a candid and revealing conversation, Music Times UK sat down with Tony DeYoung, the talented rapper and entrepreneur behind Tony DeYoung Entertainment. Tony DeYoung opened up about his experiences, his music, and the challenges he’s faced, including the recent controversy surrounding his appearance on Dr. Phil.

_Music Times UK: Tony, thanks for taking the time to speak with us today. Can you tell us a bit about what’s been going on with your aunt Lorraine and the Dr. Phil show?_

Tony DeYoung: Yeah, sure. So, my aunt Lorraine has been trying to twist the story and make it seem like I’m the bad guy. But the truth is, she lost custody of her own kid, Nicholas, and she’s been trying to use me and my platform to get attention and sympathy.

_Music Times UK: That must have been really tough for you to deal with. Can you tell us more about what happened on the Dr. Phil show?_

Tony DeYoung: Yeah, so my team and I set up the whole thing with Dr. Phil. We wanted to use the platform to share my story and my music with a wider audience. But my aunt Lorraine had other plans. She showed up on the show and started trying to trash me and my reputation.

_Music Times UK: That’s really unfortunate. But it’s clear that you’re not letting it get you down. Can you tell us a bit about your music and your marketing strategy?_

Tony DeYoung: Yeah, sure. So, my music is all about telling my story and sharing my experiences with others. I’ve been fortunate enough to have a loyal fanbase that supports me every step of the way. And my marketing strategy is all about using social media and other platforms to connect with my fans and share my music with a wider audience.

_Music Times UK: Your hard work and determination have clearly paid off. Can you tell us a bit about your metrics and analytics?_

Tony DeYoung: Yeah, sure. So, I’ve been on national television for 7 years straight, first on CBS and now on the Oprah Winfrey Network. I’ve got over 5 million followers across all social media platforms, and my music has been streamed over 50 million times on platforms such as Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube Music.

_Music Times UK: Those are impressive numbers. Finally, what message do you want to leave with our readers?_

Tony DeYoung: I just want to say that we’re like any normal family – we’ve got our own issues and differences. But the difference is that we’ve got millions of eyes on us all the time. I hope that my story and my music can inspire and motivate others to pursue their passions and never give up on their dreams.
