THE LOVE FACTOR

Brandon Williams musician, producer, drummer and singer. He is known by industry legends as a musical architect, able to bring a musical blend of sounds as a master craftsman. Brandon Williams continues to create an impressive resume. His latest single In Love, from his upcoming album, The Love Factor, reminds us of that good ole R&B music we enjoy most. The soulful ballad In Love, features vocalist Brian McKnight, Jr. It’s a love anthem about finding your true love and honoring your perfect match. Appropriate love is something we all can use at this time. Aside from working with the who’s who in music, The Love Factor focus is to rekindle spreading love through music. Not since Anita Baker and others have we had love albums that made us feel good or indifferent in a musical way not offensive. Brandon Williams, a protégé of Grammy and Billboard super producer Michael J. Powell (Anita Baker), I am sure The Love Factor will refresh our memories.

Devon Baker Releases His First Single off New Project

Mr. Devon Baker is an amazing testimony of when the Lord calls you answer. Even when you don’t want to. After singing background for a host of well known gospel recording artists, a career opening pushed him into a solo male gospel recording artist category. Now unaccompanied by a stage of many, Devon Baker has made his way center stage. Devon Baker’s commanding tenor is his gift from God and his gift has now made room for him. He has received many accolades from his cohorts in the gospel community such as Bishop Paul Morton, Israel Houghton and Darwin Hobbs. Also, he played a major role in gospel recording artist and songwriter Ted Winn’s music ministry. Sometimes people can get comfortable just being in a place where they are supposed to be temporary. Devon Baker had to learn in spite of his comfort, to whom much is given much more is required.
