Music Making Is All About Love For Those Crossing Over From Gospel To Secular
(PRLEAP.COM) The world of popular music is wide open and there are countless musical styles in all languages. Since the beginning of humankind as we know it, man has searched for sounds that allow him to express his innermost emotions. That’s why poets and songwriters will never cease to exist in spite of all the technological innovations.In the world of Gospel music, the creation and execution of musical works is (in most cases) inspired by the search for a deeper connection with God and a better understanding of the individual’s purpose on our planet. As a result of this, Gospel singers, musicians, composers, songwriters, etc. develop an approach to their art which is motivated by the sole purpose of polishing their craft, purely for the love of art. And the quality of their work, i.e. instrument executions, vocal performances, become quality products made possible by the energy and enthusiasm of people whose motivation is removed from mere financial gain as its main priority.
Legendary performers like Tina Turner polished their innate abilities in rural churches located in poor areas. The most renowned among the hottest Reggaeton artists is the Puerto Rican singer Don Omar who is also a product derived from the Gospel world.
But the amazing contribution of Gospel to the world of Secular music throughout the years is not limited to recording artists whose voices are easily recognizable by the masses. The discipline and dedication found in all true artists who grew up performing in their local churches is one of the primary reasons why DJ Chucky has become the Dj whose musical works get more airplay on hispanic radio in the U.S.
For him, the formula has been simple, just keep the focus on developing his art and always been open to adapt more elements to his creations. Part of his curriculum includes movie soundtracks, radio commercials, several CDs, remixes for top Latin artists, and his daily presence on national radio in the morning show El Vacilon De La Manana, which originates in New York City. Also, on his website www.djchuckyonline, he provides further proof of his multidimensional talent.
This is a very particular case of an artist whose development in the Gospel world evolved in a way that enabled him to express his musical talent in more ways than just performing and entertaining. His everyday on-air performances are listened to in numerous markets throughout the nation on any given day.
He believes his formation in the church choir to be the foundation of everything he’s become in the music industry. His value has increased exponentially since he started creating music scores for entire movie soundtracks, a giant leap for a kid who hails from the humble region of Santiago, the proudest of all provinces in the Dominican Republic.
In the case of Don Omar, he’s perhaps the biggest contribution of Gospel to the Reggaeton Movement.
A prolific career with musical works that show continuous upgrade, and a more experienced approach to creation and execution, are part of the reasons why he’s considered responsible for some of the classics of this particular genre.
As far as Tina Turner is concerned, the story is already there. Her presence onstage is overwhelming, her performances are strong and captivating, her voice is one of a kind, it’s a real feast to behold an artist of such caliber deliver her work.
For successful artists formed in the gospel world it’s the same in all cases: their art is a labor of love. That’s the approach that always works wonders, since there’s no commercial interest besides the need to create better works of art.
So, What’s Love Got To Do With It? For these three, when it comes to their art, perhaps everything.
