AccuRadio Song Of The Day-Casey J


Artist:Casey J

Song:Fill Me Up

Album:The Truth


Casey J topped the gospel chart with her 2015 debut single Fill Me Up.  Do you know what a sophomore slump is? That happens in the music business too. She was born Casey Janice Hobbs June 29, 1986 in Atlanta. She grew up singing in church. As a teen, she was in Atlanta Young Singers of Callanwolde. After graduating from the University of Georgia, Casey was a math teacher and worship leader at Fresh Start Church in Duluth, GA. When her rendition of Fill Me Up got a positive response, church pastor Marquis Boone had her record the song. It was written by Will Reagan who has written songs for Tasha Cobbs Leonard. Boone released it through Tyscot Records. Fill Me Up topped the Gospel Airplay chart and the album The Truth topped the Billboard Gospel Album chart. The album was recorded live at Fresh Start Church. Casey wrote half the songs on the album. The producer was pianist Korey Bowie who has worked with Angie Stone and Bri. For Casey's 2019 album The Gathering, Tyscot owner Dr. Leonard Scott signed with Integrity Music to get better distribution. It didn't do as well. According to her website, Casey is working on new music. But I saw no indication of a release date. Here's Casey J performing Fill Me Up on a religious TV show in Atlanta.
