The 2023 Super Bowl Soulful Celebration was a night of uplifting performances, unique tributes, and words of encouragement by NFL players Demario Davis (New Orleans Saints), Donovan McNabb (Philadelphia Eagles), and hosted by syndicated radio personality Willie Moore, Jr.

One of Gospel music’s prolific artists, Tye Tribbett, kicked off the show with “Get Up” & “We Gon Be Alright,” which brought the audience to its feet. Grammy-winning contemporary gospel artist Israel Houghton set the atmosphere by performing “You Are Good” and “Moving Forward.” The powerhouse gospel music artist Kierra Sheard-Kelly took the audience higher with “Something Has To Break”  and a spirited collaboration of her song “Miracles” with the Players Choir. Comprised of current and former NFL Players, the choir celebrated their 15th milestone year in the same city where they first performed together as a group back in 2008. Other players making appearances include Kelvin Beachum of the Arizona Cardinals and Justin Herron of the Las Vegas Raiders.

The legendary Patti LaBelle closed out the Super Bowl Soulful Celebration by performing her signature hits “Something Special (Is Gonna Happen Tonight),” “If Only You Knew,” and more, which kept the audience on its feet, dancing and inspired.

This year’s honoree Philadelphia Eagles Quarterback, Jalen Hurts, received the “Faith In Action” award, which honors current and former NFL Players making an impact in their communities and the lives of others off the field. Nicole Lynn, Hurts’ sports agent and the first black woman to represent a National Football League draft pick, serves as the president of football operations for Klutch Sports Group and accepted the award on Jalen’s behalf.

The Super Bowl Soulful Celebration brings together NFL players, gospel and contemporary Christian performers, comedy, and award-winning musicians on one stage for a spectacular show filled with song, hop, laughter, and uplifting messages of inspiration. Produced by Melanie Few, the only woman and person of color, and an NFL-sanctioned event during Super Bowl week.

Super Bowl Soulful Celebration: An Evening of Inspiration and Culture, formerly Super Bowl Gospel Celebration (SBGC), is founded and executive produced by Atlanta-based marketing consultant Melanie Few. Conceived in 1999 as a gospel brunch in Miami, Super Bowl Soulful Celebration continues as the only multicultural program and inspirational event sanctioned by the NFL during Super Bowl weekend. The annual event joins together key NFL Players, top Gospel/Contemporary Christian and mainstream GRAMMY® Award winning artists, and special guests all on one stage to bring audiences an evening of uplifting music, laughter, and inspirational messages.

SBSC SPECIAL HONOREE JALEN HURTS

In addition to uplifting and inspiring audiences with musical tributes, Super Bowl Soulful Celebration honors current and former NFL players making an impact in their communities, and in the lives of others off the field. This year’s honoree is Philadelphia Eagles Quarterback Jalen Hurts. Previous special honorees include Deion “Coach Prime” Sanders, Tim Brown, Russell Wilson, Tony Dungy and Troy Vincent, among others.

I’m truly honored to receive the ‘Faith in Action’ award just because I know how much faith that it’s taken — faith and work and belief, courage and perseverance; being steadfast throughout everything,” said Hurts in a pre-recorded video message.

”The beautiful part is it’s just the beginning of it and everyday I get the opportunity to dictate how the story goes and that’s something I embrace; that I enjoy. I find it thrilling in being able to determine my own destiny; be the master of my own fate. So, I’m blessed to receive the award. I’m blessed to represent the Philadelphia Eagles and my community, and really blessed to have the opportunity to, whoever is watching this, to encourage them to keep going in whatever they’re chasing too. So, it’s all an honor. ”

Bringing together four generations of music, Multi-Platinum Producer, Billboard chart topping Christian Hip Hop Recording Artists Emcee N.I.C.E., teamed up with two legends in Gospel, Billboard Charting, Stellar Award-winning Gospel Rap artist Canton Jones and the legendary Gospel singer Everett Drake (BET’s Bobby Jones Gospel show) on a song called “Amen Right There” produced by Sci Blw a 14-year-old prodigy and son of Canton Jones.

AMEN, RIGHT THERE” (ART) is what you say when you are feeling “thankful” and “fortunate” you respond with “Amen, Right There” or if someone is in need of prayer and encouragement it’s ART. The song is inspired by and features Gospel Legend Everett Drake, whose original hit “Amen Goes Right There” became a gospel classic and was the centerpiece of this true collaboration for 14-year producer Dominion Jones aka “Sci Blw” (pronounced Sky-Blue) which makes this an instant rap and gospel classic, especially with Canton and N.I.C.E., it crosses multiple genres in Christian/Gospel and Hip Hop/Rap, ART is very upbeat, a sing-along song with a dance vibe, that has south meets west bounce and melodies with a Kanye West “Through the Wire” type vibe. Instruments include Bass, Drums, Lead Guitar, Piano, and a hard hip-hop kick drum merged with Everett Drake’s gospel vocals and delivers a feel-good sensation.

Emcee N.I.C.E. Stated “To be amongst legends while also being considered one I give God all of the glory! Four generations of music are represented here by myself, Canton Jones, Everett Drake, and Young 14-year-old Sci Blw, the producer. Think about it, Classic Gospel, Gospel Rap, Christian Hip Hop, and a classic flip in a time where we need some joy and hope, this could become a song of the year!”

Canton Jones followed with “I am So blessed to work with the legendary Emcee N.I.C.E. And Everett Drake! I’m so humbled that my son, SCI BLW, produced a modern-day interpretation of a song that was already classic in “Amen Goes Right There!” me working with my son, is like Lebron and Bronny coming together, except, I beat LeBron James to it.

Everett Drake when reflecting on the song, “Words cannot express the joy and gratitude I feel knowing that this message will live on through another generation because of these amazing young Brothers, Emcee N.I.C.E. And Canton Jones!”

Sci Blw (pronounced Sky Blu) says, “It was great producing the beat, and I’m glad I could bless so many people with it including my peers!” Amen Right There is a song that is destined to bridge the gap between the Gospel and Rap, it’s radio friendly and it will uplift and unite listeners that love Christian Hip Hop, Gospel Rap, and Gospel music. Amen Right There!

SET TO PERFORM AT HIPHOPDX.COM 2023 GRAMMY EVENT

STREAM & PURCHASE EMANUEL NOW

(ATLANTA, GA) – Friday, January 27, 2023 – Known to the Christian Hip Hop community as Da’ T.R.U.T.H.Emanuel Lee Lambert Jr. is ringing in 2023 with a new name and self-titled album, Emanuel, that proves hip hop is not just for the youth.  Emanuel, a sonic journey through Emanuel’s entire career, including years spent as a classroom-trained percussionist, is released in partnership with Mixed Bag Entertainment.  Emanuel is available wherever music is sold and streamed on Friday, January 27, 2023.

The album Emanuel focuses on the intersection between two worlds.  The world of Emanuel, his birth name, and Immanuel, the Hebrew name given to Jesus Christ.  Boasting collaborations with Fred Hammond, Todd Dulaney, Aaron Cole, Dante Bowe, Tamela Mann, Maranda Curtis, Rich Tolbert, PJ Morton, Yolanda Adams, and more, this album reminds listeners that whatever their state or station of life, the greatest confidence one can have is knowing that God is “Immanuel,” – The God who is with all through every season of life. 

The release of Emanuel also introduces the retirement of his artist name, Da’ T.R.U.T.H., and the birth of moving forward under his given name, Emanuel Lambert.  “Being older and wiser makes me feel more stripped down and vulnerable.  Da’ T.R.U.T.H. is strong, and he knows it.  Emanuel is more like one of the guys.  I have been thinking for the past four years that this is something I wanted to do, and this was a perfect time,” shares Emanuel.

CEO of Mixed Bag Entertainment, Gary Crockett, states, ““Working with Emanuel has been exciting. Seeing him along with the Gospel greats bridge the worlds of Gospel music with hip hop is a conduit to bring Generations together. This album speaks to the issues of life but giving an enormous celebration of hope in each song.”

With a career spanning two decades, Emanuel has sold over a quarter million records worldwide and toured or collaborated with some of Gospel and Christian music’s premiere artists.  As a leading voice in the music industry, he has been committed to using creativity in the arts to share his faith & life experiences.  He has won four Stellar Gospel Music Awards and is GRAMMY and DOVE Award nominated.  Additionally, he serves as the CEO of the newly formed entertainment company, NXT Agency.

Emanuel’s lead single, “Set The Bar,” is a powerful and thought-provoking track that starts with an orchestral string composition.  Upbeat and intense Set The Bar” takes listeners on a journey from humble beginnings in the industry to his current status.  He highlights one of the greatest challenges of longevity: the audience expects the artist to stay the same.  In this heavily string-driven song, he makes an appeal, challenging his listeners to allow him room to evolve and grow as an artist.  The chorus, “I set the pace, I set the bar,” keeps the focus on his intent to be a trailblazer.  Over time, he has developed his own sound and wants his fans and supporters to stay with him as he seeks to mature the genre.

Whole” is a reflective declaration in three parts.  Emanuel begins with the Gospel rap and Hip Hop style for which he has gained an international reputation.  Known for his unique instrumentation, he beings the song with a simple piano and beat instrumentation.  As he sets the theme for the song, he wants the listener to focus on the lyrics.  Section two is reminiscent of the early gospel hymn songs in which music was primarily created with voices and a keyboard instrument.  In this section, Emanuel and Yolanda Adams utilize the Black music form known as Call and Response to draw the listener into this intimate moment.  Section three returns to traditional Gospel, and the two artists drive the song to the end with an upbeat and celebratory declaration, “I Need Healing for My Soul.” 

Tell Somebody” with Maranda Curtis opens with an intimate children’s moment that reminds us of a Sunday School lesson.  Within seconds, we are shifted to an upbeat vibe with an Island feel.  “Crown” features Todd Dulaney and Aaron Cole and is a spiritually awakening collaboration.  Listeners hear the Dulaney worship sound, which is contemporary Christian in nature.  Emanuel uses his unique lyrical gift to engage those listeners that might need a more urban spiritual moment.  Aaron Cole uses the purity and honesty of his voice to ensure that the text remains at the forefront of the song.  “Kingdom” features Dante Bowe and is a standout declaration that the time has come for the Kingdom of God to rise.  The raw edge of Dante Bowe’s voice and the energetic lyricism of Emanuel activates a call to action that is hard to ignore.  Many believers will relate to the visual picture presented when Bowe sings about the stirring in his soul and the open fire burning in his bones.  “Kingdom” puts these feelings into context by informing listeners that they are a notification that the time has come for them to rise.

Emanuel shares, “I craft music for a mature listener.  If you love music, you will love Emanuel.  If you love Christian hip hop but think you are too old to listen to it, I’m here to tell you that you’re not.  I want people to feel comfortable ‘still liking this.'”

A multi-hyphenate force in the music industry, LaTocha is best known as a member of the multi-platinum-selling R&B group Xscape, providing leads on some of the group’s biggest songs, including “Who Can I Run To” and “The Arms of the One Who Loves You.” “It has always been a passion of mine to do inspirational music,” says LaTocha. “It has been my foundation, and that is very evident, even when I sing R&B music. I can’t escape that.” For the powerhouse songstress, the interplay of music and faith began at Mt. Olive Church of God in Holiness, in her hometown of College Park, GA. She leaned on that foundation even as she became a household name in one of the biggest girl groups in R&B history. “A hallmark of LaTocha’s successful career has been her love for gospel music and her strong personal connection to the Black church,” shares Monica Coates, Co-Executive Director, Motown Gospel. “I am excited for her fans—long-standing and new—to finally have a body of work that reflects those areas of her passion.” Adds EJ Gaines, Co-Executive Director of Motown Gospel: “LaTocha has one of the most recognized voices in R&B, but she also has staying power and manages to maintain relevance in a marketplace that doesn’t always allow for that. I can’t wait for her fans to hear what she’s been working on.” LaTocha is readying her debut inspirational project, slated for release this year. Fans can stay connected with LaTocha via her social media channels– @iAmLaTocha on Instagram, TikTok, Twitter and Facebook.
