They don't get any bigger than the subject of our story.

Only a handful of artists in music history can be identified by a couple of notes or a line from a song.

All I have to say is, "What will people think when they hear that I'm a Jesus freak?"

In an effort to be fully transparent, I must admit that DC Talk is an all-time fave of your author today.

TobyMac, Kevin Max & Michael Tait.

March 30, 1996, in St. Louis, Missouri, at a place called the Kiel Center, and DC Talk brought the "Jesus Freak" tour to my city at the time.

BEST. SHOW. EVER.

Now, I have truly been blessed as someone in the media to attend every major tour and concert in the USA.

I am not exaggerating when I say DC Talk was the best concert I've ever been able to see live.

It was just incredible. One of the MAIN reasons it was so great lies at the feet of Toby, Kevin, and Michael.

All three of them brought such a unique aspect to the total band.

So, obviously, I'm devastated to read these stories over the last few days.

A TikTok-er, who seems like he hates any/all Christians, allegedly revealed this story in January.

Around that same time, Michael Tait, now lead singer of the Newsboys, announced he was leaving the band.

At that point, the rumor mill went into overdrive @Mach 10 speed.

Below is another TikTok-er, explaining in her video what allegations have been levied against Michael Tait as of now:
