Never heard of Maverick City so I went into research mode. They sound great but I am wholeheartedly with Angel on this. I would definitely put them in the Christian/Worship genre. I can certainly hear the difference. I hear the praise but not the soul.

[@thehoneydeev]

Kirk Franklin had gone to the Breakfast Club to promote them. That’s how I found about them

[@liquidlightz]

I saw them in concert with Kirk recently and obviously people knew their music. They are more worship and praise.

[@vaughnpowell9331]

"I hear the praise but not the soul" is a great way to put it!

[@kryseehuyler6844]

They most definately are closer to TRBL or Elevation in terms of sound that a soulful Ricky Dillard or Jekalyn Carr, but I never saw Christian Contemporary as seperate from Gospel. Just another sub-genre. I always looked at Gospel as a genre with subgenres (Gospel Rap, Contemporary Gospel, Choir etc) like Rock (Atlernative, Heavy Metal, Grundge etc). This whole is it gospel thing is just interesting to me. We all talking about God anyway.

They don’t wanna be soul or gospel. That was from the mouth of their worship leader’s mouth

[@msbrownsuga]

Replay gang gang! I think Angel hit on the key when she said “As soon as it starts with the acoustic guitar riff…” It’s not just that the song has a different melody and count, but when it loses some of the umph I tend to consider it contemporary Christian. And I want more Black people in contemporary Christian categories anyway, so I’m okay with it.

I personally think Beenie Man vs. Bounty Killer took Verzuz to the next level re: performance. They were the first to battle in the same room with their own DJ’s. Verzuz didn’t go back to separate spaces format after that. Also, I think ppl are trying to recreate the competitive atmosphere that Lox vs. Dipset had, but that was a once in a lifetime moment that cannot be done again.

Just FYI.... Meg Thee Stallion is between 5'10 and 6'0 and between 185-200lbs. She got the "Stallion" nickname because she is TALL & THICK! Stallion is a nickname for a tall, shapely horse. Her boyfriend, Pardi (Pardison Fontaine) is 6'5" and a former college basketball player. When they are standing together, you can see how tall she is because Pardi is so tall! I know most women in the industry are petite but Meg is a real one. I'm 5'8" so I love Meg representing for the tall, thick girls!

[@marquettastrait4788]

Agreed! I've also come to learn that Gospel is amazing but not all of it is considered worship music. I was raised on Gospel music and eventually lived in an environment where Gospel music was not as accessible on the radio stations. I recall asking my friend on the worship team why they didn't do certain songs at church, and she pointed out that a lot of those songs that I referenced focused on us and not Jesus. Since then, it's really given me more perspective on what type of songs I sing and what I am really aiming for: jams or worship.

Shoot, I became a Mario fan after one of those shows. Mario is a true vocalist. He's serious about his craft. Always been rooting for him to be a bigger known artist. And he's from BMore.
