What's wrong with this world? Only because an artist decides to stop singing secular music , and become a gospel singer it's bad?, God bless you Mitchell!! It's amazing to see someone leave their life of sin for Jesus. THE KING OF KINGS! Keep making music so people can feel his presence with your music!!

even while she was in Destiny's Child God was still her priority and made that clear she is an amazing person and artist in general and i hope she keeps doing gospel
@chilliharris2963
I think that this is beautiful, she went from Destiny's child, singing about sex and relationships, now she's a successful gospel singer
@limian1
***** true that and more people will be more interested in that than in her gospel work. (though it might just be me, can't say for sure. lol)
