Artist:Kim Burrell
Song:I Keep Holding On
Album:Everlasting Love
Kim Burrell is a gospel artist from Houston very popular with other singers. Too bad that can't get her a decent record contract. She was spotted singing in a choir and signed with Tommy Boy Gospel. The 1998 CD Everlasting Love was produced by veteran producer Asaph Ward. Burrell writes & arranges most of her own material. Tommy Boy Gospel closed in 2002 and Kim has not released a record since then. She did sign with Sony after appearing on a Tye Tribbett CD. There was supposed to be a CD released a couple of years ago but it never came out. With all the mergers & acquisitions at Sony, I checked to see if she's still signed but it doesn't look like it. Singers like Beyonce, Faith Evans & Angie Stone have expressed their admiration for Kim. She even recorded a recent duet with Harry Connick Jr. and he loves her too. It's a shame that someone as talented as Kim Burrell hasn't released a CD since 2001. She continues to tour and appear on other folks records. Here's Kim Burrell singing Thank You from one of those Christian networks in the US. The website shown on the screen is kaput.
