Myron Has Now Become One Of My Faves..And That's Hard To Do

"Man, where has this guy been. I hadn't heard about him until recently when his CD was being reviewed on gospelflava.com. They said he did some work with Kirk Franklin back in the day, so I made it my mandate to check him out. About 2 weeks later, I got his CD as a Christmas gift! And I haven't been able to put this CD down since!!
From the start this CD is a smash. The first 3 songs, "That Place", "I Can", and "Set Me Free", instantly became my favourite songs on the CD. After those songs, the songs are great but not like those 1st three. The beginning of "Set Me Free" also had a kind of Tye Tribbett feel to it, so I really liked that one.
There are so many leaders with chorales/choirs coming out these days it's so hard to keep up: Brent Jones & TP Mobb, Natalie Wilson & SOP, Israel & New Breed, Tye Tribbett & GA are pretty much the best of the bunch. But now you can add a new addition to that group. Myron Butler & Levi are definitely gospel excellence and don't disappoint with this CD. It was well worth the wait.
Kingdom Blessings...

Excellent CD From "God's Property" Alumni

"When I heard "Set Me Free" on the radio here in Chicago, I knew those voices and production style sounded familiar. I loved the song, then I bought the full CD- and loved all of it! Then when I heard Myron Butler did some things with Kirk Franklin, I went to my "God's Property From Kirk Franklin's Nu Nation" CD, looked through the credits, and noticed that basically all the singers, musicians, and song writers, from the Myron Butler & Levi project played major roles on the God's Property CD. You may remember Myron Butler singing the lead on "Faith" (the song where he said he had "mustard seed" faith). The only thing that surprised me about all this was that MB and the the rest of the talented crew didn't come out with anything as a unit before this (at least as far as I know).
Everything about the two projects is so similar- although they are definitely two distinct projects- and that is an excellent thing! Upbeat songs to go along with the more mellow songs, excellent musicianship by the band, and most importantly, the lyrics of all the songs emphasize a focus on God and our need to uplift Him, and stay true to the course He has laid for us. My personal favorites are "Set Me Free", "I Can", "That's Who You Are", and "Latter Rain", but I can easily listen to the entire CD without skipping a track.
If you liked the "God's Property" sound, you will definitely enjoy this CD. Get it and receive your blessing!"

"This project is more than just another gospel cd. Every song exudes excellence - lyrics, vocals, musicianship, vocal arrangements, and production. Each song reflects integrity and substance. There is not one song on here that I can skip over. Listening to Myron Butler & Levi is a breath of fresh air. This cd serves up a full course feast for your soul. And you can actually understand every word in the songs. This cd is music ministry at its best. If I just had to pick a few favorites they would be "That Place", Set Me Free", "That's Who You Are", "Heal The Land"... Never mind, I like them all. It's just that good. If you appreciate excellence in music ministry please BUY - dont burn - this CD!"
