Artist:Jermaine Dolly
Song:You
Album:Dolly Express
Jermaine Dolly topped the gospel charts with the 2015 single You. He also topped the gospel album charts with the 2017 album Dolly Express. He signed a new record deal and is working on new music. He was born Mar. 8, 1987 in Philadelphia. He grew up singing in church and learned to play piano and drums. While attending West Chester University, he led the group Prayz1. When they opened for gospel star Tye Tribbett, Tribbett was so impressed with Dolly that he was asked to join Tribbett's group as a backup singer. After touring with Tribbett and appearing on a couple of his albums, Dolly went solo and released the single You on his own label. When the single topped the gospel charts, Dolly released the 2017 album Dolly Express. Why was it a success? For one thing, Dolly spent money on a music video that doesn't take itself too seriously. Dolly has a following for his Instagram comedy videos. His goofiness is similar to Tribbett. And his falsetto vocal distinguishes him from other gospel artists. Dolly's normal voice is tenor. Dolly wrote, produced and played all the instruments himself. He also wrote and produced the album with help from former Dr. Dre protege Maurice Wilcher. Wilcher has also worked with Biz Markie, Freddie Jackson and Glenn Lewis. Dolly has signed with Malaco Records and is currently working on new music. Here's the video for You by Jermaine Dolly.
