The arresting vocals of the ethereal Christian vocalist Gayla James set a new goal with the new singles crafted with urban Christian rhythms and soft R&B flow.
Urban Christian musical genre is a somewhat unusual word, but uprising vocalist Gayla James has proved over the course of her now long-decade spanned career that it suits her well. As for any artist who has been in the game for so long, there is an anticipation of development in the music career. ‘Give Him Praise’ succeeds because of its musical vitality and boppiness, which will get even the most adamant, arm-crossing churchgoer’s soul. She is here to expound on that point a little more. When witnessing the current market’s morass of droning worship music, it’s clearly a breath of fresh air to hear fast and to-the-point worship tracks with the whiff of silky R&B choruses, when the rest are up-tempo and colorless.
Gayla James’ new record ‘Follow My Lead’ brings intention and artistry to profound and nuanced new heights, openly offering a cultural and emotional deep-dive into social meaning and the human experience. The latest single ‘I’m Blessed’ combines cinematic intricacies, and intriguing melodic snippets with elements of R&B, pop, blues, funk, and a slew of scene-setting instruments. There’s also a good mix of genres, including funk, country, gospel, R&B, and contemporary worship in hybrid musicality. These three new urban Christian music releases claim – ambiguity, discomfort, and sincerity at the fore. She conveys these elements through a seemingly theatrical and intensely touching series of performances that determine the narrative and weight of contemporary life under the light of Jesus’ guiding light in an enthralling and beautifully imaginative manner.
