Malaco Music Group announced yesterday that it has signed Grammy-winning group Sounds Of Blackness.
Their newest single, “Fly Again” goes to radio at the top of August, but you can listen to it NOW on the Pundit Player below!
The tune features Jamecia Bennett on lead vocals. She’s the daughter of Sounds of Blackness mainstay vocalist Ann Nesby, and mother of American Idol Top 5 contestant Paris Bennett.
The upcoming self-titled CD, Sounds of Blackness, will be released later this year, coinciding with the 20th anniversary of the group’s debut album, The Evolution of Gospel (which featured the crossover hit “Optimistic”), and the 40th anniversary of the group’s inception.
I have a special place in my heart for Sounds of Blackness– some of their early work forms pieces of the soundtrack of my life. LOVE ‘em!
Don’t forget to check out the single on the Pundit Player!
Plagiarism!? In 2006, I produced inspirational music projects with YuLanda Lunn and Terrence Frierson, from Sounds of Blackness. One of my songs I composed, copyrighted, produced and published is entitled, "Let Me Fly Again, 3:49 (c)." My concerns are that Sounds of Blackness have plagiarized my work with their new song entitled "Fly Again 3:48," featuring Jamecia Bennet on Malaco Records Label, in Jackson, Mississippi.
