Believe in Your Dreams

Christian Century,  Nov 29, 2005  by Lou R. Carlozo

Believe in Your Dreams, by Vashawn Mitchell (Tyscot). Modern gospel.

Mitchell's sound owes much to modern gospel pioneers such as Kirk Franklin and Fred Hammond, with its boisterous choirs, grinding R&B beats and supple rhythm sections--all girded by irrepressibly positive lyrics. On "No Way," an Otis Redding energy permeates as Mitchell sings, "You've already got the victory / No weapon shall prosper." While not as bombastic as Franklin or as stately as Hammond, Mitchell is a young talent with promise.
