5.0 out of 5 stars Anointed Songs for This Season, February 20, 2002

This review is from: The Rebirth Of Kirk Franklin (Audio CD)

I thank God for bringing this GREAT rebirth to Kirk Franklin! I am certain that his testimony is what each of us hear in the lyrics and melodies of these songs. As you listen to these soulful songs, listen to them within yourself! You will then find that there may be a kinship with Kirk Franklin's love for God that you and he share!
The nickname for this project is "The Church Project" and it fits! The guest Gospel artists present their gifts before the Lord on this project in the true spirit of worship and praise!
Bishop T. D. Jakes adds wisdom and a great seasoned voice to the dialog he and Kirk employ. This song ministers to the pain, fear and aimless wonder of those desperate for answers of peace from God.
If you love Gospel music filled with the presence of God, invest this CD, tape and (I believe) soon coming video into your life and those whom you love! You will be blessed prosperously for it!

The rebirth of Kirk Franklin is one of his BEST yet.

When you think you know Kirk's style of music than he will change and flips the scrip of us.

Each track on this CD is so POWERFUL even the traditional church folks will love it.

5.0 out of 5 stars One Kirk Franklin's classics........, March 20, 2002

By

This review is from: The Rebirth Of Kirk Franklin (Audio CD)

I noticed over the last few years that my man Kirk came under tremendous fire for his fushion of Hip-Hop sound and R&B artists into gospel music. But contrary to what others believed he has gone back to the basics. On, The Rebirth Of Kirk Franklin, he reinvents himself and his sound. The entire album is live with the exception of one track. However one element that stayed the same is Kirk's writing skills and style. The opening song, Hosanna, has such a powerful sound to it. It is upbeat, but highly annointed. This trend continues throughout the album, and the guest appearnces by a variety of Gospel and Christian artists including, Richard Smallwood,T.D. Jakes, Shirley Caesar,Crystal Lewis and DC Talk, adds diversity.This album contains all of the trademarks Kirk has developed throughout his ministry, and shows us he can't be stopped with God as his inspiration. I know you will love this album as much as I do, so pick it up. It's a CLASSIC.
