Hezekiah Walker, Karen Clark Sheard & Kierra Sheard Join Producer Stanley Brown On “God Is Good”

Stanley Brown is Gospel music’s go-to producer and composer, especially when a project calls for a fresh but authentic sound laced with Godly reverence and an urban feel. He has worked with everyone from Karen Clark Sheard to LeAndria Johnson to T.D. Jakes. His discography also includes Run DMC, Christopher Williams, Dru Hill and a host of urban artists, making his position in the music industry multi-faceted, unique and highly sought-after.

A humble giant in the genre, Brown has spent his entire career cultivating music projects for countless artists. Now, he is cultivating a project for himself: the release of “God Is Good” on his own Timeless Music Group label. Brokered by TITLE9, Timeless Music Group has entered into a distribution partnership with music powerhouse Roc Nation. Written and produced by Brown along with Rodney Jerkins and J. Drew Sheard, “God Is Good” is an effervescent track that is sure to become an anthem.

“This song represents the best that Gospel music can offer,” says Brown. “We have the greatest vocalists making a declaration that is simple and relatable, over a beat that will attract music fans from a multitude of genres. It’s a song that we had fun putting together, and that we hope motivates the masses to declare just how good God is.”

As the song begins, Hezekiah Walker proclaims “this is the vibe we’re on, no negative energy,” and it sets the tone for the entire track. Karen Clark Sheard and Kierra Sheard trade pristine vocals that imbue every lyric with perfect-pitch joy.

Rodney Jerkins says “God Is Good” is a song that the Gospel genre needs right now. “It is infusing the genre with something new sonically, and has a message that everyone will gravitate to.”

“God Is Good” is the prelude to an upcoming album project that Brown is completing, which will continue his track record of blending an urban sound into contemporary Gospel music.

“It is an honor to be in business with Roc Nation, and I am grateful that they believe enough in me and my vision to bring Timeless Music Group into their family for this project,” says Brown. “My career was shaped early on by being an executive at Island Black Music, and still having a focus on Gospel. I think when we – as a business – approach Gospel music as the crucial component of Black music that it actually is – we win.”

God Is Good” is available now on all digital service providers.

Jason Clayborn Joins Forces With Hezekiah Walker For “You’re All I Need” Re-Release

Grammy-nominated songwriter and singer, Jason Clayborn, is teaming up with gospel music legend, Bishop Hezekiah Walker, for the re-release of the smash hit song, “You’re All I Need”. Clayborn was the original writer for the hit song that garnered Walker critical acclaim in both the Christian and secular music industry. However, for the first time ever, the writer has joined forces with the artist and the two are re-releasing the song in the form of a well orchestrated partnership, and will have fans living in the nostalgia of the moment. “This almost never happens…” says Clayborn when speaking of this momentous collaboration. “Often times, the writers of many of the songs that many of us love by our favorite artists go unnoticed, and sometimes unmentioned in the mainstream spotlight…” he continues, “…I’m so honored that Bishop Walker would be willing to do this track with me and help present me, my music, and my group, The Atmosphere Changers, to the world…”

“You’re All I Need” is currently the leading single at radio in preparation for the release of the full album, “God Made it Beautiful” to be released May 28, 2021 (the same weekend as Clayborn’s 40th birthday). Preceding the “You’re All I Need” single, Clayborn also charted with hits including “Praise Belongs to You” and the album’s title track, “God Made it Beautiful”. The official video showing the partnership between Clayborn and Walker is set to be released the same weekend, Sunday, May 30, 2021. Pre-orders for the album will begin Friday, April 16, 2021 — the same day as Clayborn’s release of his collaborative album, Choir Sessions Live,  with Contemporary Christian Music phenomenon, Stephen McWhirter.

Currently on the ballot as a voting finalist for The Stellar Awards category of “Contemporary Choir of The Year”, Jason Clayborn and The Atmosphere Changers are truly this year’s “one’s to watch” for an incredible year!
