Gold-selling R&B singer Dave Hollister continues his foray into gospel music with his sophomore opus, 'Witness Protection.'

The CD, hitting the marketplace on Aug. 5, features 16 tracks including the first single 'Striving.'

"I always write and record music that reflects where I am in life, and on this project I was drawn towards a theme of persevering through adversity, which we all have to do from time to time, and giving God glory for and also through these situations because we know the testing of our faith produces patience," said Hollister."More than anything, the CD shows the depth of my heart for God by offering more songs of worship. I want people to be encouraged in their faith through this project, and I hope it will help people who may have lost their way find the path back to God."

 Hollister, a former member of the R&B group Blackstreet who had solo hits like 'One Woman Man,' 'Can't Stay' and 'Take Care of Home,' made his gospel debut in Sept. 2006 with the 'Billboard' chart-topper 'The Book Of David: Transition.'

GOSPEL PRINCESS WANDA NERO BUTLER IS BACK WITH NEW CD: Motor City Praise Records presents 'No Failure".

As expected, Stellar Awards nominee Wanda Nero Butler once again puts her stamp of energy and genuine love for God on every song on her upcoming project, “No Failure,” to be released October 14 on Motor City Praise Records.

     Known for her Billboard chart topping hits “Hey Yall” and “Newborn Soul,” the chart-topping recording artist, known as the Gospel Princess, is back and better than ever offering a plethora of inspirational tunes.

     Wanda is pegged as a more traditional Gospel artist on this CD with a contemporary twist. From the stand-out “No Failure” featuring Victoria “Vicki” Vaughn to the powerful “Deliver Me” and “No One” a duet with Pam and Dodi, the album which is also available as a vinyl CD, is sure to be a knockout.

     Wanda has been singing in front of audiences since the age of nine as the lead singer of the group Creators Children. She received vocal training at the Los Angeles Community College in Hollywood where her range and vocal abilities were expanded.

     In 1987 she released her debut albums “Reach for His Love,” on the Sound of Gospel label; in 1989 she released “New Born Soul,” and in 1991 “Wanda Nero Butler – Live in Atlanta,” which garnered a GMWA Excellence Award for Best Female Vocalist.
