Gospel Music Mid-Week News
Did you get the new gospel music CD byRiZen yet? Well, if you are still undecided head over to BET and take a listen to the entire CD. I really liked it. I’m loving the energy of these sisters–to me this CD is a great mix of contemporary, traditional, high energy & laid back. It’s a go for me. You can also take a listen to the new CD from gospel artist Lisa Page Brooks. I haven’t had a chance to listen to that one yet, but I’m sure it’s fire too.
Check out the interview that Katie Couric had with Sapphire, the author of the book Push which inspired the new movie Precious. I don’t know if I’m ready to watch the movie. It seems as if it’s going to be good in a sad sort of way.
