		<title>Deitrick Haddon- Church On The Moon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Imagine if you will, the superstar sparkle of Kirk Franklin and the bravado of Michael Jackson entangled around fashionable hip-hop beats and urban contemporary extravagance. It’s probably the safest way to describe urban gospel star Deitrick Haddon. He’s since dropped his choirboy image for the cool street evangelist look since 7 Days, his 2006 project produced by hip-hop duo Tim &#038; Bob. On his fifth studio album for Verity, Haddon plays with the concept album motif of Ne-Yo’s Libra Scale to kick off a futuristic gospel sound that plays with the Legos of Lady Gaga and Black Eyed Peas. It’s highly ambitious, crammed tightly with eighteen tracks loaded with lots of cyber-pop and even Auto-tune. Club bounce surfaces on “Reppin’ the Kingdom,” where Haddon steps back from the spotlight to allow fellow gospel contemporaries J Moss, Canton Jones and Tye Tribbett to work in their verses. “Show Stopper” swerves into Chris Brown-style pop, while the Rodney Jerkins-produced “Power,” “One More Chance” and “Fighting Temptation” keeps him on the precipice of R&#038;B crossover. Melodic ballads do offer up some needed balance on the lengthy set. His finest intimate moment, while staying in the realm of extraterrestrial fantasy, is “Gravity,” where Haddon deals with the pressures of Earth:”Wanna share with the world the peace that I’ve found/But gravity keeps on bringing me down.” Halfway into the set, the mood shifts from Lowrider crunk to worshipful gospel (“You Are My Strength,” “Well Done”). <br/><br/><span class="readmore"><a href="http://totalpraise.net/2011/04/09/deitrick-haddon-church-on-the-moon/" title="Deitrick Haddon- Church On The Moon">Continue Reading--51 words totally</a></span>]]></description>

		<title>Spotlight On CJ Ballance</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some people are given their calling quite early in life. And others seem to find it along the way. The former is the case with contemporary gospel recording artist CJ Ballance. Although he’s young in age, this gifted singer has much to share through the vehicle of gospel music. Corey E. Ballance Jr., affectionately known as CJ Ballance, is on a mission to inspire, uplift and give hope to all who have lost it. The North Carolina resident is “launching out into the deep” with his first national gospel release from Gospel Visions Entertainment entitled “If God Said It” in January 2011. <br/><br/><span class="readmore"><a href="http://totalpraise.net/2011/04/09/spotlight-on-cj-ballance/" title="Spotlight On CJ Ballance">Continue Reading--119 words totally</a></span>]]></description>

		<title>Kirk Franklin- Hello Fear</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With a knack for uplifting people through music, Kirk Franklin gives fans encouragement to press on during trying times with his latest album, Hello Fear. But instead of looking into the unknown with trepidation, Franklin (a Dove and GRAMMY Award-winner) greets difficult circumstances with a buoyant proclamation of faith. The best example? A song called “I Smile” that’s counter-intuitively dedicated to “recession, depression, and unemployment.”<br/><br/><span class="readmore"><a href="http://totalpraise.net/2011/04/02/kirk-franklin-hello-fear/" title="Kirk Franklin- Hello Fear">Continue Reading--11 words totally</a></span>]]></description>

		<title>Spotlight on Forever Jones</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him (Psalm 127:3).  While some may gloss over this declaration in the book of Psalms in passing, this verse is at the very core of the Jones family, known musically as forever JONES.

Early in their marriage, Dewitt &#038; Kim Jones were given devastating news.   A bout with toxic shock syndrome at age 18 had resulted in Kim being diagnosed with Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, and the young newlyweds were told they would likely never have children.  The doctor prescribed medication for Kim, but she made a decision not to take it, but rather to completely trust God with her life and for her healing.  <br/><br/><span class="readmore"><a href="http://totalpraise.net/2011/04/02/spotlight-on-forever-jones/" title="Spotlight on Forever Jones">Continue Reading--146 words totally</a></span>]]></description>
