Title: Hmm.. Gospel?
Post by: Jtabije on August 18, 2010, 02:53:54 AM

Musiq - Love (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIKC2ggCed4#ws)

would this be considered gospel?

I meant is the style of chord voicing in the song similar to that in gospel?

..as a side note though, Musiq was originally going to entitle the song "Lord" (just imagine all of the "love"s replaced with "Lord"). However, he didn't want to be recognized as a gospel artist and therefore changed it to "Love". Interesting, huh?

O.K., yeah the chord voicings in this song are similar to that in gospel.

And as for your side-note, dude should've went with his original title for the song. Making one gospel song doesn't make you a gospel artist. Look at DMX, he has a gospel song on everyone of his CDs and he's as far from gospel as you can get.
