Kim Burrell - A Force of Nature

Goodness! You would think after all the hype about the Super Bowl that I'd be planted in front of the TV, but I had to get this post in about one of my favorite singers, Kim Burrell.

She hasn't actually released her own project since doing "Live In Concert" in 2002, but she has collaborated with several artists including Richard Smallwood & Vision, Missy Elliot & a trio with R. Kelly & Kelly Price. Several R&B and pop artists list her as being one of their influences, including Beyonce, Jessica Simpson, Mariah Carey & Chris Brown. From all accounts, she lives the message behind the music, so it would be safe to call her a minister instead of just a gospel artist.

I'm sharing a video where Kim is during a service where she's freestyling on one of her songs, "Have Faith" doing the runs she's known and loved for. Enjoy, and have a good evening!
