NEW MUSIC: Juan & Lisa Winans featuring Marvin Winans ‘It Belongs To Me’

Juan Winans is the brother of Deborah Joy Winans, 'Charity' from OWN's 'Greenleaf'

Hello World,

Dare Records celebrates the release of gospel music’s premiere millennial GRAMMY-nominated couple, Juan and Lisa Winans’, official debut single, “It Belongs To Me,” featuring 6X GRAMMY-Award winner Marvin Winans, who is Juan’s uncle. Following the success of their 2018 Holiday EP, A Little Soul for Christmas, “It Belongs To Me” encourages all that the good news and promises of God are for them and will come to pass. It’s a beautifully rendered and timely message as the world faces a global health crisis and rising social and political unrest. “It Belongs To Me” will be available on all major digital retail outlets on Friday, May 8, 2020.

Juan Winans began his career with the Billboard #1 Gospel Album, “Winans Phase 2: We Got Next.” Juan and his sister Deborah Joy Winans (“Greenleaf”) toured in the original musical “Born For This: The BeBe Winans Story,” for which Juan won Best Male Lead at the 2019 NAACP Theater Awards. Lisa Winans (formerly Lisa Kimmey) is best known as one third of the Dove Award winning, Contemporary Christian Music trio, Out of Eden. The group was active from 1994 to 2006, producing seven albums. During Lisa’s tenure with Out of Eden, she appeared on the 90’s sitcom “Moesha,” and hosted original programming for the Gospel Music Channel. In 2006, Out of Eden retired and released a greatest hits compilation. The trio reunited in 2014 for a special Gotee Records compilation album with a cover of House of Heroes’ single “Constant.”

“Our single, (“It Belongs To Me”) is more than a song to us, it’s the way we are aspiring to live. Jesus said that He came to give us abundant life. That’s a big, bold statement and just one of many promises offered to us as children of God. This song is a declaration of our desire and dedication to living in those promises; to possessing every gift and blessing that God makes available to us through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. ‘It Belongs To Me’ is our anthem of grace and faith,” says Juan Winans.

The series’ innovative format takes an inside look at the creative process behind songwriting, and each episode provides one up-and-coming songwriter the opportunity to have their song recorded by a chart-topping artist. “SONGLAND” premiered Monday, April 13th at 10PM ET/PT on NBC.

Bishop Hezekiah Walker VS. John P. Kee TONIGHT!!!

Hello World,

Although I’m a Christian, I still do listen to and enjoy secular music and don’t come for me if you don’t. Just because the gospel is not mentioned in a song doesn’t make the song evil or distasteful. That being said, I got my entire life while watching the Instagram battle between Teddy Riley and Babyface last Monday as a part of the wide variety of quarantine entertainment available now. I came of age listening to their music so it was fun to see them showcase their music on a modern platform via a “Verzuz” battle. But later on today, the gospel will be proclaimed as Bishop Hezekiah Walker and John P. Kee will be “battling” on Instagram although it’s not a part of “Verzuz.” See the flier above for the details…See John P. Kee’s statement about the “battle” below…

I’ll be watching! How about you?

Hello World,

If this is true, Charlotte Pastor Brian Carn must be allegedly trying to tempt God…According to the WSOC-TV in Charlotte, North Carolina, there is an audio recording in which Pastor Carn of Kingdom City Church in Charlotte, North Carolina allegedly admitted to having the shakes, coughing and body pain…And on top of that, Pastor Carn allegedly told his church members to not reveal where they went to church if they got sick and had to go to the doctor! Check out an excerpt of the shocking story by Glenn Counts below…

“A Charlotte preacher claims he had COVID-19 symptoms and still held services packed with people.

Pastor Brian Carn allegedly conducted service at Kingdom City Church on Dr. Carver Drive on Easter Sunday, and it’s raising eyebrows.

“Does the devil fight my body?” Carn could be heard saying in an audio recording. “Of course. Just like he fights your body. Did I get the shakes? Yup. Did I cough? Yup. Did I feel pain in my body? Whatever.”

Carn allegedly was talking about being infected with the virus.

Channel 9 learned Thursday that Carn has now agreed not to hold any more in-person services after he was contacted by the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department.”
