In church you need something to praise to, but you also want something to turn up to. So I decided to put it together in a song.” Although “I Luh God” shot to the top of the gospel charts, it was not without its critics, who called it “trap gospel”.
She adds:
People were calling it ‘trap gospel’, but I really don’t know what trap music is so I just did what I felt. My husband created the track and it was banging and we just went with it. I just hope people hear my heart. I know that everyone won’t and that’s OK with me. I’m so unbothered by all of that because I know my purpose and I know my goal.”

I love my kids, I love my husband, I love my family, and I [
