Richie Stephens and Sanchez, two of reggae’s most respected vocalists, have joined forces to publicly express their gratitude to The Almighty. The gospel track, titled “Forever Grateful,” is featured on Richie‘s recently released album, “The Soul of Richie Stephens.”
Richie Stephens, a veteran reggae artist, has never shied away from creating gospel music when he felt compelled to do so. In fact, one of the biggest gospel compilations shared in Jamaica last year was the “Street Gospel Riddim,” which was produced by Richie Stephens and released on his own Pot of Gold Production label.
As for Sanchez, he is primarily known for his melodious voice and numerous lovers-rock hits. However, since the 1990s, he has been incorporating gospel themes in most of his recordings. Sanchez was officially embraced by the Christian community after the release of his 1999 gospel album, “Who is This Man,” and a few years later, he shared another gospel project called “He’s Got the Power.”
“The Soul of Richie Stephens,” as the name implies, is a soul music album. It was released on July 26, 2024, and is now available on all streaming platforms.
