TobyMac opened up to the audience about his son's death during his Los Angeles concert
“A lot of people have come up to me and said, ‘You know what, Toby? You’re gonna see him again.’ And I believe that with all my heart. I truly do,” he said, in. “But the question is, why? Why do I get to see him again? Because his goods outweigh his bads? No. Nah, he was my wild child. His good didn’t outweigh his bad, just like my good doesn’t outweigh my bad.
McKeehan was an aspiring rapper and released music on various platforms under the names TRU, Shiloh and Truett Foster. Over the years, he also joined forces with his father, who wrote the song “Scars” after his eldest son left home to pursue his dreams.“Truett Foster McKeehan had joy that took the room when he entered. He was a magnetic son and brother and friend. If you met him you knew him, you remembered him,” he wrote in a statement obtained by PEOPLE.
“He expressed himself through the music he made. And by made I mean, written, recorded, produced, mixed, and designed the art. All of it. A true artist,” the singer shared, before reflecting on his son’s first show a week before he died, which was “nothing short of electric.” “Everyone felt it, everyone knew it. He could’ve easily taken the easy route and put music out when he was 12, 14, 16, even 18, but he always said he wanted to live some life and have something to say before he did it. He didn’t want to be a child star, he wanted to be a man with scars and a story to tell. I always admired, respected and encouraged that stand,” he said.
