Hey Diva's..
Yours truly had the privilege of being invited to attend the premiere screening of BET'S a Celebration of Gospel at the Odeon Leicester Square today with G. All the movers and shakers of the British gospel scene were there, including JAHAZIEL, ROGER SAMUELS and the main man of the moment MUYIWA who put on a fantastic live set to end the afternoon' s festivities...what a treat! Talking of treats we were served up a delicious buffet of carribbean cuisine by top London caterers 'CUMMIN' UP'... trust me peeps I got my eat on!
Steve Harvey was the host of the show filmed late January in HOLLYWOOD and he was hilarious! His jokes about OBAMA had us in the ODEON rolling in our seats...! I recommend watching out for the following performances...Mary Mary with their new single 'GET UP' and later on in the show when they duet with the Lip Licking king himself LL Cool J who throws money into the crowd..check out the scramble for the cash, we will excuse the classlessness after all we are experiencing a global recession! Kirk Franklin rocked the show with his track 'LITTLE BOY' and Vickie Winans had us all remembering what a faithful God we serve.
As we all know BET International launched about a year ago in the UK and it has been a triumphant success reaching 1.5 
million individuals and is ranked as the leading television brand among black households aged 16-44. (source: BARB 2008). We need to promote and advertise the brand as it is THE station that represents US and OUR issues with US at heart, Glenn Yearwood and his team are doing a great job.

And a shout out to my girl ESTHER who is one of his backing singers check her out at www.myspace.com/estheradeyemi she said LA was an amazing experience and is looking forward to releasing her first single next month...YOU GO GIRL!!!
ALSO! Look out for 106 & Park presents: GOSPEL GENERATION (which launched last month) with hosts Angel Taylor from TRIN-I-TEE 5:7 and Jorel Quinn from 21:03, the show is a weekly spin off of the well known 106 & Park but instead will feature, the hottest music videos and celebrity guests making waves on the Gospel circuit, look out for Choir battles, TYE'S (tribbet's) TIDBITS and much, much more!
