Reviewed by Lins Honeyman
New York gospel singer and 9/11 survivor Sharon Smith takes on the role of executive producer on this two-song single as well as writer of the first song "Whenever I Call (He Will Answer Prayer)" - a slick slice of R&B featuring the substantial talents of Whitney Houston soundalike Shawna Dominique. The more traditional gospel of "I'm Living In This World" sees Smith's mother Rev Dr Ruth Singletary, together with the wonderful Mighty Newtones, rise above the tacky synthesised backing to holler God's glory from the rooftops and pull something rather special out of the bag in this curious release.
