This has been recorded by a bunch of people in Castington Young Offenders Institute. Let me quote,"...it is about making good come from bad situations, about recognising that we all have God given gifts and talents and using them to express ourselves...our experiences, thoughts, fears and our hope for something more." In and of itself, it's recorded very well, sounds very crisp and professional and wouldn't be unwelcome or out of place in the charts. Good deejaying and some good sampling (I think they're samples). With titles such as "Be Blessed", "Your Way", "God We Trust" and "Hope" you can guess where they're coming from. It's not very often that I'll listen to this sort of stuff, but it's good to see the Gospel having a positive effect and hear the enthusiasm of those it's affected. I have to thank Alison Rankine for her input, she suggested a 6 for this so that's what it gets.
