Former NFL Players in Concert This Weekend
Gospel Music Artists Marcus Price and Gino Mingo To Perform in Concert in Greenville
Marcus Price and Gino Mingo are off the football playing field and on the playing field for Christ as a duo named Distinguished. Price played two years each with the San Diego Chargers, New Orleans Saints, and the Buffalo Bills and Mingo spent three years in the NFL. The gospel music group was formed three years ago and they are both currently praise and worship leaders at Shoreline Christian Church in San Diego.
Price and Mingo were each planning to do solo projects, but decided that they needed to work as a duo. They carry with them that message that they are men who love to worship God. “We have a genuine love for God through worship,” Price said in a telephone interview from his San Diego home. He views his current career as a singer and musician as a secondary service.
Price said he and Mingo want to inspire children to be the best at anything they want to do in life. “I like spending time with kids,” he said. “I really like to challenge kids. We also like to let them know what we are really down-to-earth people.”
Price said playing professional sports helped prepare him for a life after football. “Believe it or not, this is still the music business, and you still have to deal with a variety of people,” he said. “It takes structure and discipline, all those attributes I learned as an athletes carry over.” Source
Distinguished will be in concert at Reimage Church in Greenville at 6 pm Sunday. The gospel music concert is free.
Christian Hip Hop Artist Shonlock & Arrow Records Make a Deal
Arrow Records Officially Announce The Signing of Gospel Music Rap Artist Shonlock
Deshon Bullock aka gospel hip-hop artist Shonlock, has been signed by Creflo Dollar’s Arrow Records. Shonlock has worked with some of secular and Christian music’s most popular acts, from Aaliyah, Arrested Development, Grammy-nominated duo Grits, Kierra “Kiki” Sheard and Trinitee 5:7 as a dancer, choreographer, and lyricist. He is currently touring with Grammy winner TobyMac.
Now based in Atlanta, Shonlock’s study and hard work with Christian music’s biggest stars have paid off with his highly anticipated new album. Featuring 12 tracks with Shonlock’s creative blend of influences from soul, rock, and hip hop, his new album is sure to make waves in furthering the spiritually-conscious hip hop movement. Grammy-nominated producers David “Da Monsta” Lynch and Ric “Form” Robbins oversee the 12 tracks on the new album, which includes appearances from The Katinas and Trinitee 5:7.
In the video above, Shonlock touches on the ill-fated union he had with Word Records that didn’t work out because of difference in vision. You can read more about that chapter in his life at Gospel City.
I’m looking forward to the new album when it comes out. New gospel music is always good!
Creflo Dollar Presents Heart of God Change
Gospel Music Album From Creflo Dollar & Arrow Records Break Through Traditional Barriers
Gospel recording artists featured on this project come together to combine very different styles of gospel music. According to Creflo Dollar, Arrow artist, DeLeon, is a melodic worshipper. Her unique delivery leads people into a place of seeking more of God.
Jonathan Phillips, has a unique sound Dollar describes as, “flavorful rhythm and praise,” which is a unique combination of Christian rock and progressive pop. Arrow’s newest artist, Jordan Dollar, appeals broadly to teens and young adults alike. “Jordan is a bridge for young people from traditional to contemporary worship and praise,” says Creflo Dollar. “I call it ‘life music.’”
Arrow artist, Dorsey Hammond, is a gifted pianist, songwriter, and also the Minister of Music at World Changers Church International. “Dorsey’s music is a propelling force of rhythmic and harmonic freedom that excites and challenges listeners to come into deep fellowship with God. And this is the goal of the Heart of God CD: to combine the various styles which will bring people to a level of authentic, heartfelt praise, and worship toward God.” Read more
