Hero follows Kirk Franklin's award-encrusted The Rebirth of Kirk Franklin (2002). While Rebirth felt largely like a return to Franklin's Family days, Hero is grounded in his trademark hip-hop gospel a la the Nu Nation Project. But this time around, Franklin draws heavily from '70s-era pop and soul. And he doesn't just tinker with these samples; instead, he uses them to shape something new and interesting. Though there's plenty of vocal energy, Hero's sound is somehow more honed, more refined, more channeled and focused than earlier projects.

Pastor and famed gospel singer, Donnie McClurkin , has been providing uplifting songs for years now. Known for hits like We Fall Down and Stand , McClurkin returns with his follow up to the award-winning, Again with Psalms, Hymns & Spiritual Songs. Debuting at #1 on Billboard 's Top Gospel chart, the CD was recorded live at The Rock Church in Virginia Beach. Aptly-titled, this two-disc project is a wonderful collection of songs aimed directly at the King of Kings.
