Song:God's Got A Blessing (With Your Name In It)
Album:The Essential Norman Hutchins
Gospel artist Norman Hutchins has been recording since the 90s. He's had success on the gospel chart. But he probably made his biggest splash when the video for God's Got A Blessing was played on BET's Video Gospel. It blew up in 2002 and Hutchins continues to sustain that success today. He was born Sept. 27, 1962 in Dover, DE. Hutchins started preaching at age eight and he was ordained at age twelve. He was one of eleven children of a single mom. So he was the family breadwinner as a teen. Hutchins married at age 19 and eventually moved to Los Angeles to be music minister at West Angeles COGIC. While performing in church, Andrae Crouch spotted him and got him into the music business. After singing on the 1991 West Angeles COGIC Choir album Saints In Praise Vol. 2, Sparrow Records signed Hutchins to a solo contract. After three albums, Sparrow dropped Hutchins and he signed with James Roberson's JDI label. God's Got A Blessing is from the 2002 album Nobody But You. The song zoomed up the gospel chart after the video was played on BET's Video Gospel. Hutchins continued to have success until he left JDI to start his own label. This comp of Hutchins' JDI recordings is available as a digital download. Hutchins moved back to Dover to start his own ministry Frontline and his own label. He last released an album in 2013. Hutchins has had diabetes related health problems which required a kidney transplant from his wife. But he continues to lead his ministry and release occasional singles. Here's the video for God's Got A Blessing (With Your Name on It) by Norman Hutchins.
