Artist:forever JONES
Song:He Wants It All
Album:Get Ready
Contemporary gospel fans are going to want to check out this 2010 album by the family group forever JONES. They were led by Dewitt Jones and his wife Kim. They are from Washington state. Dewitt wrote the gospel standard Use Me for Ron Kenoly. He claims God gave him a "specific call" to start the group with his five kids. They are D'Jeniele Hooten on guitar and vocals, Dominique Jones on vocals and piano, Mya Jones on vocals, Dewitt Jones IV on bass and Judah Jones on drums. I guess the idea was to showcase the five kids. Their manager introduced them to producer Tommy Sims and he got them a record deal with EMI Gospel. He produced the 2010 album Get Ready. The parents wrote most of the songs. But the lead single He Wants It All was written and sung by Dominique. I thought at the time that she had star potential. They were nominated for two Grammys. The 2012 album Musical Revival was produced by Keith Thomas. When it didn't do as well, a third album was recorded. But I don't think it was ever released. And Dominique decided to go solo. She now calls herself DOE. Her big break came when she appeared on the 2018 Jonathan McReynolds single Cycles. This got her a deal with RCA Inspiration and her debut album Clarity was released Feb. 2022. She got four Dove nomination. I told you she's a star. Here's the video for He Wants It All by forever JONES.
