Anyone watch Bobby Jones Gospel yesterday?
I dunno if I enjoyed the line-up, though I typically enjoy the artists individually. I DID, however, enjoy watching Damita Haddon. It was Damita Haddon WEEKEND for me! LOL. Anyway, she and her background vocalists sounded great. Good stuff. I feel fanaticism creeping in… 
On the Generation Gospel front, I didn’t like this episode as much as previous ones, but it was consistent.
I’ll note that the “Tye’s Tidbits” section was rather bare on the… bits. Now that January is over, there’s not as much to talk about in the gospel industry for a minute. Everyone is recuperating from the Stellars.
And what the heck were they talking about on the “J Sells” segment with Jermaine Sellers? On his left was some 32-year old lady talking about being pure and how she can help everyone with their own purity, and on his right was African-American bestseller, Zane, who has been dubbed “The Queen of Erotic Fiction,” and has just released a new book, the title of which I cannot, in good conscience, say on this blog. What exactly was the take-away from this segment??? 
The performances were cool: Spensha Baker sang her remake of the Clark Sisters’ “Hallelujah.” To be only 15 years old, she’s got a VOICE on her! And Marvin Winans, Jr. performed and did an interview, too. Cool.
Like I said in my earlier post, Juda Camp won the choir battle, so they’re the new house choir. I still want them to sing DURING the show, not just as we go to commercial breaks, but if you like it, I love it.
Thoughts, anyone???
E.J. are you secretly working for Damita Haddon now or what, LOL. Bobby Jones was ok. I'm with you on your comment on the line-up. Although I enjoy hearing Lookin Back & Striving on the radio, there was really no stand out performance. I too was glad to see that house choir leave the 106 show:-) They didnt give Tye anything to say during his segment. They could at least say who has albums coming out, who has the number one album, or who is in the studio. I straight fast forwarded through that Jermaine Sellars segment, lol. Spensha Baker was cool, super mature for her age. Warryn Campbell did a great job producing that tune she did. Marvin Winans should have performed his single instead of the song he did.
I was a little lost on the JSells segment too. I can't believe they had Zane on there. She may be a best-selling author but some of her stuff is really "erotic". Too much for a Gospel show.
@luda: LOL. I WISH I was gettin' paid for the Damita plugs! AND you're hilarious for fast-forwarding through segments. Ha! @Dominique: I know, right?!
Zane was on the show -- As an interview??? Was she actively plugging her book or something? Please share!
