Mary Mary Continues Reign At #1 On Billboard’s Gospel Chart

The latest project from sister duo Mary Mary, titled Go Get It, continues at the #1 spot on Billboard’s Gospel Albums chart this week, after debuting at the top last week.

Beyond that, the charts had very little movement– the Joyful Noise soundtrack swapped with the WOW Gospel project and Jessica Reedy re-entered the Top 10 from #13.

Here’s this week’s top 10:

1 | Mary MaryGo Get It
2 | Marvin SappI Win
3 | Various ArtistsJoyful Noise (Soundtrack)
4 | WOW Gospel 2012
5 | Trip LeeThe Good Life
6 | William McDowellArise
7 | Fred HammondGod, Love & Romance
8 | JJ Hairston & Youthful PraiseAfter This
9 | James Fortune & FIYAIdentity
10 | Jessica ReedyFrom The Heart

Next week, I’m predicting a #1 debut from Jason Nelson, plus high sales numbers from Zacardi Cortez and Cheneta Jones.

5 Reasons To Buy: Jason Nelson — ‘Shifting The Atmosphere’

The major label debut from Jason Nelson, titled Shifting the Atmosphere, hits stores today!

Here are 5 good reasons to buy it…

1. The project takes you on a journey– a worship experience– with musical ventures into every area that one might want to explore in view of our perfect Savior.

2. Can’t nobody sing like Jason Nelson. See? He sings so well, I don’t wanna use proper grammar about it. His voice is remarkable– a throwback to the folks who could really sing, but still current enough to be relevant in today’s music landscape. Definitely one of my favorite male vocalists, right up around Marvin Winans

3. Everyone else isn’t wrong. Within hours of its release, he was already #1 in Christian & Gospel on iTunes. He’s got ringing endorsements from Kirk Franklin, Mary Mary, Donald Lawrence, John P Kee, Isaac Carree, and COUNTLESS others. And it’s not just because of his pleasing personality (though, he’s one of the most genuinely nice and humble guys in the game)… it’s because of his powerful ministry.

4. One word– “Dominion.” This song is going to be HUGE. Like… epic and huge. Like… the heartcry of believers across the nation. The whole thing is incredible, but the resonating “it’s over…” at the very end of the song is both bondage-breaking and yoke-destroying. Get you some.

5. Next generation promise. I mention this quite a bit, but Jason Nelson is one of those artists that will be foundational in the next generation of gospel music. He’s in it for the long haul; not just because of his gift, but because of his heart. We need him here. And to keep him here, we’ve gotta support it.

You can take a listen to the album and buy it right here, right now at Amazon. Let’s go!

The official video for the newest single from Mary Mary, “Go Get It,” has been released!

It’s a pretty straightforward video, with as much energy as the vocals and band give us on the recorded tune. I can dig the set, wardrobe and styling changes, though I will note that my favorite set-up is where they’re dancing with their backs against the wall– it just screams confidence and ease.

Anyway, check it out and tell me what you think!
