Word Has It: Clark Sisters, J Moss, Kierra Collabo Is Coming

Word has it that the Clark Sisters, J Moss and Kierra Sheard are joining forces to re-make the Frankie Beverly & Maze classic ”I Wanna Thank You.”  The track will be featured on I Wanna Thank You… An All-Star Tribute to Maze Featuring Frankie Beverly, due in stores in August of this year.  The compilation will also feature Mary J. Blige, Mint Condition, Ledisi, among others.

At first, I thought “ummm… but too many cooks spoil the broth.”  My ears won’t know what to do with the Clark Sisters, J and Kierra cuttin’ up.  But then, I heard that Donald Lawrence is gonna produce the track, and all was well with my soul. :roll:

By the way, this will be “all-star compilation album” #2 for the Clark Sisters in ’09.  Get it!

    Im not sure how I feel about theClark Sisters and this new venture with mainstream collaboration. I know they did something with Missy Elliot awhile back, but hmm idk. Other gospel artists that have done it, well you kinda learn to accept it, but the Clark Sisters?! What would Mattie think? She'd probably throw a shoe!!! lololol

    This is a family collaboration....what is there to wonder about? Their contribution will have nothing to do with what the other artists will be bringing to their songs. Even if it did, unlike other unnamed gospel artists, I know the sisters will represent in true form like they've always done. Remember the Clark Sisters collaborated with R&B soul singin' DJ Rogers back in the early 80's while Mattie was alive & kicking. I can't wait to hear it and I'm excited that Kierra & J.Moss will be apart of it. I always wanted to hear a song with all of the family.

    Honestly--I'm happy it's only a track and not a whole album...lol I'm sure they'll do it great justice, though.

    I'm a fan of everything the Clark Sisters sing--I don't think this will be any different. They are amazingly talented vocalist, J. Moss is actually quite impressive when it comes to mixing the mainstream with the gospel tracks so I think his experience will play heavily into the flow of the songs. And if D. Lawrence is going to produce it then I'm sure it'll be the next big thing every combined choir in America is singing on 2nd and 4th Sunday:-) Bottom Line: It's a Moss/Clark Family project so I'm all over it.

    LOL @ Stephen! I'm with you, doc! Don't come out with no 3:30 track. I need AT LEAST 7 good minutes.
