'It's the God in Me'
One of my fav gospel songs ever by Mary Mary feat. Ki Ki Sheard. All awesome vocalists! Didn't know there was a vid, thanks Nick.lol .. Partying for the lord! lol
But, def check out their album, they cover every genre singing about positivity and God, so no matter what or how you worship, it's a great album.

The In Between EP is Here!
About The In Between
The In Between EP is a prelude to Siaira Shawn's debut album, "The Outsider Inside." This five song EP with bonus acapella showcases the wide vocal range and talents of one of the Bay Area's budding R&B stars. The "Intro" and "Outro" narrates what would usually be complex subject matter for the typical R&B album. Shawn's songwriting depicts the battles we endure searching for love as well as the trials we face defining ourselves in a world bent on conformity. Musically speaking, the up-tempo tracks such as "Seat Filler" produced by Mr. Know-It-All to the sonically progressive ballad, "Where You Are," tightropes the energy and imagination of a Janelle Monae with the soul and depth of Donny Hathaway. The In Between infuses futuristic soundscapes with the maturity and vulnerability contemporary R&B audiences have been yearning for.
Production Credits
Nick James, George Hearst, T.K. Top Kat, Mr. Know-It-All, and Will Bracy
All songs written by Siaira Harris | Mixed by George Hearst at Gehea Music Studios | Art Design by Nick James

Siaira Shawn,
