This playlist was inspired by a friend that I call Brotha Rod. He just recently wrote a post about missing God and getting back to worship.

So Brotha Rod this is for you.

Marvin Sapp - Thirsty


Today I would like to highlight Marvin Sapp, who has an outstanding cd that has held its own on the charts for almost 2 years. This is a good solid cd with one song that stands the test of time and that is "Never Would Have Made It." This is a cd that presents a great worship experience.

Finding Mali

I was very impressed by the artist Mali Music (Jamaal Pollard) so I just had to get his new cd which was released on 7/14/09. I thought by chance it may be at Target, but it wasn’t. Then I went to the Christian bookstore and no Mali. I thought about buying it online, but I wanted to have the cd that day. So on Friday I looked online and saw that it was in stock at my local Best Buy store. I got to Best Buy and I looked for it, the sales associates looked for it, but no Mali. One guy recommended that I try Barnes and Nobles and I did. At last, I found Mali, yea!!!!!!

Tracks: Conqueror, I Hate You

Shei Atkins - Praise My Way Out


Shei Atkins takes it back with her single "Praise My Way Out." This song is not new, it was actually released in 2007, but it still has a powerful message about having faith in God to get you out of a situation. It's upbeat with a taste of old school and it's definitely worth a listen.

New Releases - 7/14/09

This is past due, I know I know - but I've included a few snippets so that you can get a feel of how these new projects will sound.

Coko Clemons- Winner In Me
This is a great cd. I listened to few clips on ITunes and I thought that all of the snippets were great. I decided to make the purchase and I am not disappointed.

Claude Deuce -The Young Elder

Dr. Jeff Jacobs - He's Just Alright

Coco McMillan - I've Been Delivered

Mali Music - The 2nd Coming
I was a little disappointed that I couldn't find this in a store, because his music is so amazing.
Check out the last "Sneak a Piece of Pie" for additional tracks and videos

Simple Song

I was searching for music for my church choir and I came across "Our Father, You Are Holy" by Ricky Dillard & New G. This song is so powerful and the message is so simple - Bless the name of the Lord because he is holy. The praise team got to the song before I was able to introduce it to the choir, but that's okay. The song is great. Add to your worship mix.

Brian Courtney Wilson


This album was actually released on June 2, but I introduce to you Brian Courtney Wilson. Wilson's first single "All I Need" is climbing the charts. The song talks about praying to God and asking Him for peace. Wilson's voice sounds a little old school and that is what gives him such a unique sound. The cd would probably be categorized as contemporary gospel with its R&B and Jazz flavors.

Videos from the album:
