For an artist to credit such luminaries as BeBe Winans, Patti Labelle, Gladys Night, Chaka Khan, and...erm....Stevie Wonder, via celebs Oprah, Chis Tucker and Jesse Jackson, you have to wonder. Egomaniac namedroppers better deliver or forever stand in the shadows of true talent and achievement. Well, Donnie lurks in the background here, accompanied by a swathe of average MOR gospel material which fails to inspire big time. The vocals and production from a large cast, despite being strong, simply lose out to desperately inferior songwriting. Oh for a "Midnight Train To Georgia", "Superstition" or "Lady Marmalade", something to stir the soul. This offering couldn't stir a calorie-free cuppasoup. Donnie is also pastor of the grandly titled Perfecting Faith Church. The mind boggles... my small church is in the mustard seed category. Only in America, eh?
