God's Lives Matter by Gary Shepard


"God's Lives Matter" is a right now kinda song! It tackles the very sensitive topic of police brutality and the apparent victimization of African Americans. The project is overseen by Sam Bradley, CEO of Gospel Entertainment, created and produced by Lakia Crawford and Brandon Baymon of Kilabra Stone Productions and produced/mixed/mastered to perfection by Irv Baptiste. The track lays it all out on the line as each of the featured artists share their views on the "matter".

Shkitzo
Shkitzo is what you call a fire spitter. He starts with a straightforward and familiar flow as if he is on cruise control. He then comes in full throttle with a fast-paced, staccato flow that forces the listener to concentrate in order to keep up. Shkitzo touches upon government corruption and the lack of concern for the law. He also touches on how the church is spiritually sleeping as these crimes against humanity occur.

Johnny Lavid

Very talented brother with multiple gifts, delivers a strong warning to listeners about the evil of this present world. He outlines the truth behind spiritual warfare and connects it directly to the topic at hand: police brutality and murdering of people of color. He takes his flow to the next level by incorporating his first language, Spanish, into the mix.

Rock Weilla Brown 

ends the song well by touching on the history of the 1st murder and cleverly brings us in the present state that we live in. He provides a historical and biblical perspective that ties in the themes and messages of the first three rappers and concludes the matter by proclaiming that "Jesus" lives matter, hence "God's Lives Matter"!

There are many groups of people in the world and whether it be black lives, white lives, or police lives...ALL LIVES MATTER! We must realize that all life comes from God himself now and forever.

Stay tuned! This is only the beginning for this movement. There is so much more to come. Gospel Beat Entertainment is doing great things and you don't want to miss out. God Bless!

The King's Men Tour

What do you get when you put four power house performers together in one arena? You get an amazing show that will leave you completely breathless! I had the pleasure of seeing Donnie McClurkin, Marvin Sapp, Israel Houghton and Kirk Franklin perform live at the XL Center in Hartford, Connecticut last month and could not believe the amazing show that my $50 afforded me. My expectations were that each man would have their own set and perform 2 or 3 of their hit songs for the crowd before we were dismissed. I was pleasantly surprised that the show lasted 2+ hours and is easily classified as one of the best shows I have ever seen in my life!! All 4 performers were on stage at the same time for the majority of the show, supporting and singing background for each other. To me this demonstrated unity and humility because each of them is at the level in their career where they could demand their own spotlighted segment. Taking this unified approach resulted in a show that was seaml

BET has caught the Christian reality TV bug! The Sheards is the lastest reality show based on Christians and is proving to be a hit for the network. As we all know, Mary Mary spearheaded the movement with the WE TV show Mary Mary. Preachers Wives and Preachers Daughters are two other shows that have emerged. The Sheards stars gospel powerhouse Karen Clark Sheard of the Clark Sisters and her equally talented daughter Kierra "KiKi" Sheard who is working diligently with her brother/producer J. Drew Sheard to take her career to the next level. The show highlights the family dynamics and the tensions that can arise when people mix business with personal. It also shows the very "real" love that the family has for one another and the support that comes with that kind of love! The show airs every Sunday night at 8pm est.

God’s Original Design (G.O.D)

Dear Soul, What is DNA? According to the U.S. National Library of Medicine: DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same DNA…The order, or sequence, of DNA bases determines the information available for building and maintaining an organism, similar to the way in which letters of the alphabet appear in a certain order to form words and sentences. (https://ghr.nlm.nih.gov/primer/basics/dna) DNA determines our height, weight, eye color, hair color, and even our personalities. DNA is the essence of who we are and we do not have the power to control our genetic makeup (though we try…) Now, what does DNA have to do with this devotional? I’m glad you asked… David, former king of Israel and a man after God’s own heart, informs us in Psalm 51:5 that as humans, we were shaped or formed in iniquity or wickedness and conceived in sin (immorality, transgression, or evil).
