Pastor Marvin L. Sapp could not have asked for a more perfect year. The "Thirsty" CD was certified GOLD, Sapp was the 2008 recipient of the BET Best Gospel Artist award, he received an unprecedented NINE stellar award nominations, and arguably the biggest feat of all, his chart topping hit, “Never Would Have Made It,” broke records as the LONGEST running #1 single ever in gospel. The single spent 26 weeks at #1 and has become one of the most popular songs EVER in gospel music history. On Oct. 28th at Kingdom Square, on the campus of Lighthouse Full Life Center, DetroitGospel.com writer Ken Hoskins shared in a momentous evening as Marvin Sapp kicked off his "Never Would Have Made It" tour.
In anticipation of his recent visit to the city of Detroit, gospel rapper Flame spent a few minutes with DetroitGospel.com's Conway Norwood to talk about his latest project, his testimony, and the future of gospel rap.
