Destiny Praise - Driven

Lead vocals switches hands several times on Walter Hawkins’ supercharged classic, Changed, presented in slightly faster and meaty funk form from the original. Experience the cleansing of DP’s utter rejoicing for His mercies throughout Psalms 136, cradled by electric piano mild reverbs.

Nothing But The Blood of Jesus, dressed up with bright jazz vocal colors and a title change The Blood, never loses its integral power, courtesy of Potts’ interpretation.

Dr. Crute’s tenor lead and DP’s seesawing harmonies gracefully cover the title track, whose goal is simply pleasing and prioritizing God: “People may laugh, but I choose to make You proud.” Let’s not forget the bonus cut, a closing prayer driven by 2 Chronicles 7:14.

There’s a contemporary urban flair, yet a sprinkling of pop, jazz, and worship elements which keeps the musical palette interesting. Potts’ one-man band pulls off crisp and sophisticated production values. DP definitely exhibits spring in their vocal step without resorting to outrageous acrobatics. Hopefully in the near future, more people and the media will recognize their distinct and sound ministry destined to give God full honor without worldly compromise.
