No More Whack Gospel Music..please

For the last 10 years urban indie gospel and Christ hip-hop has made great strides as sub genres. It's not hard to find great music and cool up and coming artists on social networks & itunes any day of the week. And although we do not compare ourselves to mainstream artists,there still seems to be a gap in artist, song and album development. Too many of us have sacrificed quality in the name of ministry or the lack of money excuse. Many artists after traveling this road of compromise have become utterly frustrated(with an having inferior product) and have walked away from their craft and calling knowing that there was another level to be reached. Great songwriting does matter. So do what it takes to find great songwriters to write for your projects. Great vocals do matter so find great vocal producers to work on your music(slapping on itunes doesn't count!). Holistic music production does matter. not just simply about the person who programmed the track but about knowledge,experience,skill and mixing that make a great producer(he or she knows how to build a team or has a team to get the job done). So my advice to you is this: SLOW down . SAVE your money and RESEARCH to get the quality you desire and should want to present to the world. Culture doesn't have a problem with hearing songs about Christ. Let's make sure what we offer is artistically captivating and of our best effort. Jesus does the rest!
