Word has it that Marvin Winans, Jr. will be enlisting the vocal services of his father, Pastor Marvin L. Winans, Sr., for his sophomore album!

In addition, Winans (Jr.) will again be working with Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins to recreate some of the production magic they captured on his debut album, Image Of A Man.

He also plans to have some tracks produced by Israel Houghton & Aaron Lindsey.

This could be reeeeaaaally good…

Word has it that Tye Tribbett is working with mainstream producer Rodney Jerkins aka “Darkchild” on his next album, due in stores later this year.

I think that’s gonna be a rather hot collabo… interested in hearing the sound that comes from their sessions!

Reps from his team sent me some photo footage for your viewing pleasure:

If any of you live in (or will BE in) the Los Angeles area on August 20th-22nd, you may wanna check out The Merge Summit at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel.

This 3-day event, sponsored by Relevé Entertainment, is designed to integrate ministry and the entertainment business.  With opportunities to learn from (and network with) folks in various fields of the entertainment industry, attendees will walk away with resources for all kinds of entertainment careers.

Watch this video and visit www.themergesummit.com for more info.

Note:  Since the creation of the video above, Tye Tribbett has been removed from the line-up.  Hezekiah Walker, Pastor Jamal Bryant and several others have been added.

Sounds like an interesting concept… anyone planning to attend???
