Celebration of Gospel - Three Days and counting!!

Good evening, folks! It's good to have you back here for a little bit of news on the gospel front.

This Sunday will be special on BET [Black Entertainment Television], because the much awaited Celebration of Gospel will be on!

This will be a chance to experience some of the top contemporary and traditional gospel artists, along with some spoken word segments. The exciting thing about this show is that it's one of the rare chances during the year for gospel artists to sing with their counterparts in R&B. A lot of the R&B artists that are currently popular actually got started in the church choir, like John Legend, Mario [cousin of the famous Winans family], and Heather Headley, among others. Before they became famous, folks like Gladys Knight, Dionne Warwick, Sam Cooke & Aretha Franklin got their start in the church, and have made some gospel tracks since then. So you never know who might show up unexpectedly....

Have a blessed evening!
