It's Personal
''It's Personal'' is the first studio album by Tina Campbell (musician), Tina Campbell. Gee Tree Creative released the album on May 21, 2015. Critical reception Awarding the album three and a half stars from AllMusic, David Jeffries states, "Released in the era of early leaks for albums, Tina Campbell's solo debut made news when it actually missed its street date, but that's the only stumble made by this 2015 release, as Mary Mary fans will likely embrace this solid splinter effort." Tony Cummings, giving the album a nine out of ten at Cross Rhythms, writes, "The album closes with Tina literally praying over a piano backing and all but the most jaundiced of listeners will be moved by a brave, and deeply personal, album."

Christian R&B
Christian R&B (also known as gospel R&B, rhythm & praise music, and R&P) is a subgenre of rhythm and blues music consisting of tracks with Christian-based lyrics or by musicians typically known for writing such songs. Music in this genre intends to uplift, entertain, or to give a Christian perspective on a topic. Christian R&B could be considered a subgenre of gospel music, or a cross-genre under both gospel and R&B. Origin and musical style Gospel music is one of the roots or influences of R&B music. While it might seem as if Christian R&B should be the subgenre of gospel music, R&B is rooted in several music genres and has developed over the decades, making its musical characteristics audibly different from the musical nuances of gospel music. Yet some modern musicians mix R&B elements with gospel music elements. R&B originated between the 1940s and 1950s, and Christian R&B followed close behind. Christian rhythm and blues have the same musical characteristics heard in regula ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
