Stereotype: Steel & Velvet

Stereotype: Steel & Velvet is singer Tonéx's 18th album. Tonex stated in an interview, that the name Stereotype is a metaphor for the dual nature in humanity (i.e. stereo, left and right). The album was original to be released on Verity/Jive Records on September 11, 2007. Disagreements later led to a dissolution of the association between Tonex and Zomba Label Group. As a result, Stereotype: Steel & Velvet was not officially released. The artist opted to give the album away for free on his MySpace page as a thank you to fans. One single "Joy" had been serviced to radio under the auspices of Verity in May 2007.
