Hezekiah Walker- Souled Out

November 16, 2008 · Print This Article

For over two decades, Hezekiah Walker has been recording fun exciting displays of contemporary funky gospel music - styled in such a tradition that people have gone to such great lengths to label it the “Hezekiah Walker” sound. And for generations, Hezekiah Walker has become an inspiration to many youth choirs and choir directors for keeping good choir music alive. In the linear notes of Souled Out, the pastor’s thirteen project to date, Walker expresses his labor of love for a style of gospel music that has become so unappreciated and neglected by today’s gospel industry. “Although the industry is trying to do away with choirs, this CD is a testimony that we are here to stay.” It’s kind of hard to believe that it has been over twenty years since Walker and his energetic Love Fellowship Crusade Choir jumped on the recording scene. But evidentially, Souled Out is a fresh new chapter for the songbook of Hezekiah Walker. For the most part, it serves as an inspirational guide for struggling choirs looking for cool material that bears the seal of approval from the renowned Pastor of Hip-Hop.
