From the Don't Be A Menace movie, this attempt to put the soulful sound of gospel into the mainstream isn't a complete success but still sports a seriously soulful lead from Karen Clark-Sheard and a nice looping semi-swingbeat rhythm. There are four mixes (of which the Church Mix and Main Mix are best) and the sleeve says featuring Kirk Franklin, Karen Clark-Sheard, Donald Lawrence and Hezekiah Walker though it's the ex-Clark Sister most in evidence.
