Praise Pick Of The Week…..Jonathan Nelson….”Expect The Great”

Get ready and lets GO!!!! its time to do “The Me Dance” with Yolanda Adams

Having written the screenplay and taking the lead role in the movie, it’s only fitting that Haddon teams with his longtime aggregation for the soundtrack. Twelve tracks strong, Haddon presents a project that continues his legacy of trendy and edgy presentations second to none.

Haddon handles the lion’s share of the production on this album but brings a bevy of talented artists along for the ride for a well-rounded presentation.

Lowell Pye and BET Sunday Best runner-up Jessica Reedy lend their talents to “Praise in the House”, the album’s lone traditional offering. As expected, neither Pye nor Reedy disappoint in this infectious Sunday morning jam.

Destiny’s Child alumnus Michelle Williams offers the heartfelt plea “More Like You”, a definite favorite for personal or corporate worship. The diversity continues with the soft rock presentation of “Over Again” featuring Cylas. The Detroit-based Rock Nationcontinues the rock vibe with the hope-filled “Anything Is Possible”, which is another keeper.

Don’t miss Suzie Rock on “So What”, which deftly showcases the longtime marriage between rock and hip-hop to perfection.

With all of the guest appearances, have no fear. Haddon and VOU are in no way lost in the proverbial sauce. The radio single “Judah”, which features VOU member Clareta Jacksonon lead vocals, provides that classic VOU energy that has defined their presentation for years. Infectious and exciting, this track is unapologetic and is sure to incite a praise riot.

The same could be said for “Zion”, featuring Eric “Bishop” Taylor. Haddon goes for the jugular with the urban presentations and hits a homerun. Damita Haddon takes center stage on the urban slow jam “Breath Away”. Penned by the production team Tim & Bob, this track is evidence of Damita’s impressive artistry.

From top to bottom, Haddon delivers a gem. The multi-faceted Deitrick Haddon has found his stride and has created a soundtrack that serves as the ideal backdrop for the movie that was birthed from his heart. (gospelflava.com)

CHECK OUT THE PICS,SUPPORTING CAST, AND MUCH MORE!

The memorial celebration for the legendary, Bishop Walter Hawkins at the Paramount Theater in Oakland, California, was held this morning. His maghony-brown casket sat at stage left and was covered with a beautiful flower arrangement. Not clear why the casket wasn’t front and center, but I have my own speculations. Perhaps it was Bishop Hawkins humility, always feeling the need to let others shine. Whatver the reason, Bishop Hawkins will forever be remembered as a man who loved everybody and believed that God accepts us all — that regardless of adversity, you have to love.

More photos and video highlights after the click:

Edwin Hawkins and his three sisters, Carol, Feddie, Lynette,

and brother, Daniel, all speak to the crowd.

Donnie McClurkin and BeBe Winans sing “STAND”.

Bishop Kenneth Moales prophecies for Jamie Hawkins. The

moment that caught everyone by surprise, I was move beyond

imagination. However, I did notice earlier when Jamie spoke,

it was something different about him. I said to myself, Jamie

sound like a preacher.

A “praise break” during the service, it’s sure to make you dance.
