“I’m not a rapper and will never claim to be,” Logan Cain states. “I just had a dream in my head one day of me rapping along to the song. I admit that I originally heard it in a Chance The Rapper tone, but I made up my own version and started doing it in our shows. What has been so great is that people were just connecting with the song’s message, that your status as a child of the Most High is not conditional. When we were writing the song, that’s exactly what we hoped the takeaway would be from its message.”

Logan continues, ” It doesn’t matter what day it is, if it’s a random Tuesday or even your birthday, and it’s not about having dollar signs in your eyes and sunglasses on at night. It’s being blessed knowing that Jesus is mine and I am His. We’re hoping that who we serve has the biggest say in how we serve them. We want the listeners to know that we’re so grateful that you have connected with this song in such a major way. We heard you and we got this version out as quickly as we could!”

TyBrasel Shining Final Cover

Raised on the outskirts of Memphis, Brasel struggled with criminal behavior before rediscovering God and renewing his purpose as a faith-driven hip-hop star. Since then, he’s used music as a means of encouraging others to move past their own obstacles. Produced by Dirty Rice, Joseph Prielozny, and JuiceBangers, TRANSCENDENT will mark his fourth release for Curb Records’ hip-hop imprint, IVAV, joining an acclaimed catalog that also includes 2020’s The Divine Storm and 2018’s Destined For Greatness.

“TRANSCENDENT is about rising above all types of emotions and challenges that can lead you down a dangerous path,” Brasel says of the upcoming record, which also includes collabs with The WRLDFMS Tony Williams, Aaron Cole, Foggieraw, Jay-Way, and Parris Chariz. “Those challenges can be anything from ego to depression to pride to fear. We can tap into our divine resources to overcome those obstacles, and that story is reflective of my own life — my personal story of transcending.”

Switchfoot Shares Pre-Release Track “California Christmas”

Switchfoot releases “California Christmas” off their upcoming Christmas LP, this is our Christmas album, out November 4th. Marking the band’s first-ever holiday record, this is our Christmas album finds Switchfoot infusing their signature West Coast sound to a number of holiday classics and five, new original Christmas songs. Cheery, nostalgic and brimming with sunshine, the 11 track collection was inspired by everyone from the Beach Boys to Black Flag, and promises to be the perfect soundtrack for the holiday season with a new California twist.

“Christmas is an emotional treasure chest for a songwriter to pull from,” lead Singer Jon Foreman says. “It’s a season stretched tight with contradictions: celebrating the free gifts of love and grace with an outburst of materialist capitalist consumption. An emotional roller coaster of family and friends, hopes and scars- bringing out the worst and the best in all of us.” A project that’s been years in the making, this is our Christmas album, wraps its arms wide around these contradictions.

this is our Christmas album is a follow up to 2021’s interobang, which saw the band opt for raw 60’s era pop-infused feel and straying away from their typical rock sound. Penned through the pandemic, interrobang celebrates the journey when the destination is unsure. It illustrates the contrast between joy and pain, faith and doubt, and marks a bold new creative peak for the multi-platinum rockers.

Vineyard Worship UK Release Second Live Single “Running”.

The second Vineyard Worship single recorded live at their youth event, Dreaming the Impossible, is set to release on 14th October.

The song, titled ‘Running’, is interpreted by songwriters and worship leaders Beth McNeil and Jon Solway. ‘Running’ is a slower and meditative track adorned with strings and spacious voicings that explores the beauty of Jesus’ grace.

Telling the story of the new song, Beth explains that its inspiration came from the story of the prodigal son in Luke 15 and the amazing picture of the Lord’s heart painted through it. ‘Running’ cleverly links the touching parable told by Jesus to his death a few chapters later, connecting us afresh with God’s life-changing grace.

As the single ends, the recording captures a beautiful moment as the track fades and the crowd sings in simple devotion. Produced by Jonny Bird, Vineyard Worship’s new single follows a first live release from Dreaming the Impossible, this year’s national youth festival which gathered three thousand from all over the UK.

“Running” – Vineyard Worship is available now.
