Hey... whatever happened to Tone Loc?

Not that I was ever a fan, but they were playing "Funky Cold Medina" on the radio yesterday - the guy was real popular there for awhile, whatever happened to Tone Loc? Last thing I remember is that c-bear and Jamal cartoon....

He and MC Hammer went in on a time share and were never heard from again.

I think he has given up music and tried acting...stuff like Ace Ventura, Surf Ninjas and Blank Check come to mind.

Saw him on one of those "Where Are They Now?" shows. Apparantly, he saved all the money he made from Loc'ed After Dark instead of sending it up his nose. He's living large and does some acting and voiceover work.

I do believe he had a role in the very, very, very short-lived TV series, "Theives". It was nice, but then again, anybody could have played that role.

Lotsa voiceovers with that deep, husky voice of his. Great pay.

I believe he wanted to get out of the music biz (specifically rap).
