THE BIG BUDGET animated movie The Prince of Egypt is to be the inspiration for a number of top Christian music artists including Kirk Franklin, Jars Of Clay and BeBe & CeCe Winans. In addition to a soundtrack album, two albums are being recorded featuring songs inspired by the film: 'Inspirational', gathering top artists from pop, R&B and gospel music; and 'Nashville', a compilation performed by Music City's top talents. The 'inspired by' albums are due for mid autumn release preceding the December 18 opening of the film, a creative retelling of the story of Moses. The film features the voice of Val Kilmer as Moses and Ralph Fiennes as Rameses and other movie stars contributing voice overs are Jeff Goldblum and Michelle Pfeiffer. CR
