See the 1st Episode of ‘KINGDOM BUSINESS’ from BET+ & Pics from ‘KINGDOM BUSINESS’ Premiere…

Hello World,

I’ve been hearing great things about KINGDOM BUSINESS,  the new BET+ show which is executive produced by DeVon Franklin, Holly Carter, and Kirk Franklin and premiered earlier this month! It’s hard to measure up to OWN’s Greenleaf, my favorite church drama of all time, but I’m always up for a new show if done well…

If you missed the first episode, please check it out below followed by the official synopsis:

About KINGDOM BUSINESS: Denita Jordan is the Queen of Gospel Music at First Kingdom Church and Kingdom Records in Atlanta. A superstar whose music has been heard around the world, she is determined to guard her family and its many secrets at all costs. Her husband Calvin Jordan may be the Bishop at First Kingdom, but Denita is the true leader, and she has little tolerance for insurrection among her family and employees (and ex-employees). Suddenly, there is a new powerhouse performer on the Atlanta gospel scene — a young pole dancer, Rbel, whose talent and pedigree may bring her closer to God and gold than she ever imagined.

KINGDOM BUSINESS also touts a stellar lineup of talented recurring guests stars, including Tamar Braxton as “Sasha”, La’Miya Good as “Essence,” Aspen Kennedy as “Zyan,” Kiandra Richardson as “C.J. Jordan-Walker,” Kajuana Shuford Marie as “Dani” and Sam Malone as “Dex.”

Also, check out pics from the Hollywood premiere of KINGDOM BUSINESS. Yolanda Adams, Serayah, Michael Jai White, Michael Beach, Chaundre A. Hall-Broomfield, La’Myia Good and Kiandra Richardson were in attendance at the star-studded celebration at NeueHouse in Hollywood, California.

Premiere Highlights included:

  • An intimate evening with a black carpet outside the venue and an interactive photo booth and custom snacks and drinks inside
  • Guests were treated to a Q&A hosted by executive producers DeVon Franklin and Holly Carter
  • A surprise musical performance by Serayah, Yolanda Adams, and Kirk Franklin on the piano, performing original gospel tracks “It Was Love” and “Talk Back,” which will be available via the official Kingdom Business soundtrack this summer
