As the first two reviewers said before this album is not getting the amount of airplay it deserves. When I first bought it. I bought it mainly because of the title track then as I began to listen to it every song ministered to me in it's own way. My favorites have to be Welcome in your Presence, Still Here, God Can, You Survived, My father knows and you are holy.

Excellent album. Upbeat tracks and lively music for young christians as well as the young at heart.

Wow. What more to say than wow. This album is mad hott. If you like gospel and you like some hott cats usin their musical gifts to the fullest, then this album is for you. Excellent vocal talents featuring Shawn McClemore, Nikki Ross Turneley, and EB layin down the 16 bars. This is one of the HOTTEST gospel joints goin on right now. Also in this album is the work of keyboard player Terrence Vaughn, who is a phenominal keyboard player. Terrence helped produce this album, and works with LL Cool J and Brent Jones. All the players on this CD are top notch musicians. Best of all James keeps it real and tells it like it is, his lyrics are down to earth and for real. You gotta love this CD for what it is, and for the incredible talent displayed throughout each track. Two hott tracks to check out are "Praise Anthem" and "Dance (remix)". The best thing I can compare FIYA to is Tye Tribbett and GA, or John P. Kee. If you like gospel this is the CD to get!!

James Fortune is a genius in music. I love the sound him and his group have. You must have this CD.

This album deserves a lot more air play then it has been receiving. If you are looking for an album that really ministers to your soul then this should be in your collection. The title song itself is enough for you to purchase the album. I know that even though i went through a lot of hard times in my life, I am still a survivor. James fortune & Fiya keep ministering and letting God use you.

It seems like a lot of people are sleeping on this album. When I heard the title track "You Survived" on the radio over a year ago I knew I had to find out who the song was from. WHen I finally got the CD it really ministered to me from day one. It is such a uplifting album. I think it's great for young adults, well I think everyone can recieve something from this album. "God Can" is another uplifting track. Also, "I'm Still Here" really spoke to me, because I am a college student and it always seems like something, whether it be financially, in classes, with time or anything is going wrong.

Love the CD, I hope others will pick it up and I pray that is ministers to them like it did and continues to do with me.

Happy Listening
Stay Blessed
