Creative singer, songwriter and passionate worshipper, Tope Ilori releases a new brand single and video titled “Alagbara” (The Mighty One).
The song was borne out of the understanding of the MIGHTINESS of God and inspired by victories, healings, restoration that our God has done in the past, the ones we are recording now and the ones He will yet do!

We’ve seen many situations that seemed impossible to man but God miraculously turned around; the barren one that God turned to mother of nations, the sick that got healed miraculously and the helpless that God helped!

Be blessed by this song and video.

During a time when music lovers are longing for a live concert experience, GRAMMY nominee Tauren Wells feels compelled to release Citizen of Heaven LIVE, which includes 15 audio tracks and 4 videos that were recorded during his album launch event in January 2020 at Lakewood Church in his hometown of Houston, TX.

“My favorite thing about creating an album is anticipating what the live versions of the songs will become,” says Wells. “Having a song come alive for the first time in the writing room or the studio is a crazy feeling, but there is a different energy and excitement when the song comes alive in a room full of people! We captured all that fire on this new LIVE album, and it is a full-on heatwave! You’re about to dance, cry, laugh, and worship all at the same time so be prepared. The people in the car next to you are going to be really confused!”

Citizen of Heaven LIVE is set to drop April 16th but is available to pre-order/pre-save now. To preview the new live experience, this week Wells dropped the live version of “Until Grace” featuring Gary LeVox of Rascal Flatts.

Orphan No More, a UK-based worship music collective, releases a live video for “Grateful Response,” which can be viewed below. The track is featured on the group’s latest release, Death Died, which dropped last week (Apr 2).

An honest and contemplative confession of faith and doubt, Death Died is interwoven with the challenging and freeing narrative of the life of the Rabbi Jesus. Written in the wake of loss and recorded during the height of lockdown and isolation, the project reaches out from the depths of the human experience into the scarred hands of divine love and acceptance.

As a community, Orphan No More has had a burning desire to get back to simplicity, to savor the beauty of the Gospel that is the good news of Jesus. In a year marked with isolation and loss, the need for simplicity in a world of chaos has become more transparent than ever. With the songs found on Death Died, which were written and produced by the Orphan No More Co and mixed by Will Reagan (United Pursuit), they’ve created an unfiltered reflection of the heart of their community, defined by love.

Blanca has released the official music video for “Papi Song” featuring Genio from her recently-released album, Renovada.

“Papi Song” honors Blanca’s late father, Tonito Reyes, who was a Christian Salsero in Puerto Rico. Reyes passed away in 2011, but his daughter hopes this song will allow his music and his memory to live on.

The featured artist heard on the fresh track is Genio, Blanca’s cousin who has written songs recorded by Ozuna, Arc angel, Cosculluela and others. “My father inspired me in so many ways in my music career,” Blanca shares. “We kept it in the family on this one, and I think the heart and passion behind this song is wild!”

Historically, Blanca has naturally translated her lyrics from English to Spanish, but for Renovada, she intentionally crafted every song from the ground up in her native tongue. Renovada, which means “renewed,” pays tribute to Blanca’s late parents, both of whom she previously lost to cancer. The new project honors her parents’ legacy and her Puerto Rican lineage. “My Spanish culture and deep Latina roots play a huge part in this,” she explains. “My parents always desired for me to embrace this part of me and create music for my people and my family. So here I am, finally doing just that. They aren’t here to see it happen, but I’m hoping through the music and the songs, I can keep their legacy alive.”
