Among touring engagements and preparing for the birth of a new baby,(She gave birth only a week before this release) Le'Andria Johnson found time to get in the studio and pound a soon to be released project. On the heels of her highly successful debut project (three if you count the re-release of the debut project and a holiday EP project released at the same time) "The Experience"( allows fans of the gospel phenom to experience Johnson through live interpretations of favorites and several studio recordings. The project is preceded by the release of two radio singles:
"My Story Continues" a mid tempo song that allows Leandria to belt out strong to the naysayers while encouraging anyone who has been counted out of the race.
"Complicated" slow on the stride and reminiscent of the old school jams in the vein of Aretha Franklin or Natalie Cole. Johnson laments about love that has burned, scorned and broken a heart with a passion that sounds and feels deeply personal.
While Miss Johnson shows off her chops to sing about issues of the heart; she delves even deeper to sing about issues that affect the soul.
Leandria keeps it real with the rocking "I'm Living" The lyrics go "...I like to tell you a little bit about me. before we go any further in this CD. Now I like my trash and I like blues, Hip Hop and R&B just to name a few. But it don't mean nothing if it can't carry you through. Only the Word of God for me will do." She sets it off like that!!
Renditions of classics, "God Will Take Care of You", "Joy" , the Caravan's "Lord Keep Me Day By Day" and the Clark Sisters' "Endow Me" are given a refreshing take and shows why Le'Andria Johnson is Sunday Best!!!
The 14 track project is a can't miss, all win, all day long from beginning to end
Get It! Love It! Live it!
