Antonio has already sold over five million albums and this eight-song album is his first as Chief Operating Officer at Madison Line Records (he was previously at EMI Gospel).The first thing that hits you is Antonio's velvet smooth voice. While the theme stretching through this set is of reconciliation, there are some excellent songs here. "Diamond" has a touch of the John Legend about it; "Never Gave Up" is a great testimony song about love never giving up on someone; the title track has jazz influences; while "Breathe" even adds a touch of calypso! 'Welcome Home' finishes with "At The End Of Myself" sung accapella and what an encouraging message of winning the race it is. Many already know that Antonio Neal possess an exceptional vocal talent while for those who don't, here's the proof.
