Speaker 3: the microphone? And I know when you're in like what
Speaker 3: I'll call a church setting. You know, it's at Miracle Theater,
Speaker 3: but it's like a church setting. It's a service. They
Speaker 3: could be anyone in that room who can take that
Speaker 3: microphone and blow yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I like to look at it.
Speaker 5: Actually, you know, so it's a concert, but the concert
Speaker 5: is kind of geared towards the spirit of God and
Speaker 5: the gift of music, you know, just like celebrating music
Speaker 5: in the way that everybody could get to it. And
Speaker 5: to your point with the Grammy uh uh pre celebration,
Speaker 5: it was crazy. Avery Wilson got up there. Every sunshine
Speaker 5: I got up there. Yeah, uh both Avery uh tore
Speaker 5: it up.
Speaker 6: Robert Glasper yes, uh Glasberg got up there.

Speaker 2: It was an amazing night Standard Romola. I was standing
Speaker 2: in the corner.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was.
Speaker 5: Crazy, stay in the room only, but I had such
Speaker 5: a great time and I and I remember at the
Speaker 5: end of the night for me was like the the
Speaker 5: start of Uh I guess where I am tonight? Where
Speaker 5: we are today? Rather because I remember just the create
Speaker 5: at the end of that night. You know that I'm
Speaker 5: a winner and and I'm glad to.
Speaker 4: Have one the Grammy for my album Church.
Speaker 2: I love it. There's a spirit of humility.
Speaker 3: But the last time you came in on the show,
Speaker 3: I should say the first time came in before the Grammys,
Speaker 3: you made it very clear.
Speaker 2: I want to win.
Speaker 7: I want to win.
Speaker 8: I want to win.
Speaker 6: There's nothing wrong with that, nothing wrong with it. It
Speaker 6: is a competition. I think we all is a competition,
Speaker 6: and I'm not in it to lose. It's nice to
Speaker 6: be nominated, but and.
Speaker 5: Being nominated is also a win, Like I mean, there's
Speaker 5: millions of albums that are like submitted, you know, every year,
Speaker 5: and to be nominated is a win. So like I've
Speaker 5: always appreciated and never give up the fact that, like
Speaker 5: you know, I've already won, but to actually bring it
Speaker 5: home and you know, and bring the whole thing together
Speaker 5: is like whoa.
Speaker 4: It fulfills another whole joy in my soul.
Speaker 3: Going back to Miracle Theater Easter evening, how do you
Speaker 3: foresee that night going? Do you have a set list
Speaker 3: where you know I'm going to play this, this is this,
Speaker 3: or You're gonna let the spirit guide you.
Speaker 2: Wherever it leads you is where you're gonna end up.
Speaker 5: I always come in with a game plan, right, and
Speaker 5: I'm still working on it. The bands have now grown
Speaker 5: tremendously in the last four days. I just started asking
Speaker 5: my friends and more with my friends I was like, man,
Speaker 5: could you come out? And I was like, oh, if
Speaker 5: I got this many people, we can go ahead and
Speaker 5: do this many things. So I come up with a
Speaker 5: game plan. But somewhere in the middle, if not the
Speaker 5: top of the concert, you know, the spirit does take
Speaker 5: over and I try to play the things that the
Speaker 5: spirit tells me to play. So it's always about that.
Speaker 5: It's always about following the spirit and trying to touch
Speaker 5: the people with the music.
Speaker 3: When you come in and you sit down and you
Speaker 3: see maybe a person who didn't expect to see there,
Speaker 3: and it fills your heart, does it make you play
Speaker 3: you just to make you play differently. I know when
Speaker 3: I would perform and I like, oh my mama's out there,
Speaker 3: or someone's like.
Speaker 4: Oh my god.
Speaker 3: Someone said they weren't sure they were gonna be able
Speaker 3: to make it and they end up making it, and
Speaker 3: it just changes your whole countenance.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I like when it happens on the like when it's spontaneous,
Speaker 5: you know, because normally when I'm playing shows, my eyes
Speaker 5: is closed or I'm kind of like zoned.
Speaker 4: In at the egg I get that, or I'm looking
Speaker 4: at something very random.
Speaker 5: But once I start to like recognize people in the
Speaker 5: performance and something like that does happen. It makes me
Speaker 5: happy and want to play harder.
Speaker 3: Let's see, are we plugged it in and hit a
Speaker 3: key or something. Okay, we'll get the we'll get the
Speaker 3: ampliphone amplifier fixed in just a second. We'll do that
Speaker 3: during the break. It's four hours long, six thirty to
Speaker 3: ten thirty. I think of it like being a revival
Speaker 3: where got a little bit of music, maybe some testimony,
Speaker 3: and maybe you know, you might even open the doors
Speaker 3: to the churches.
Speaker 2: Is there one maybe?
Speaker 4: Maybe?
Speaker 5: I think for me, you know, we got a few
Speaker 5: hours because as I mentioned earlier, there's a food portion,
Speaker 5: there's a fellowship portion in which, you know, I want
Speaker 5: a fellowship.
Speaker 4: I want to be, you know, with the people.
Speaker 5: And then there's also like an after show portion, after
Speaker 5: party if you will, portion where you know, you know, son,
Speaker 5: no homies and friends go, I want to hang out.
Speaker 5: We're going to hang out afterwards. So I got a
Speaker 5: program to night to just be like, oh, we're going
Speaker 5: to be hanging all night. You know, if you don't
Speaker 5: got nowhere to go, you can kind of be with us.
Speaker 5: And and we have you know, a program of a
Speaker 5: bunch of things happening alongside with the music that I
Speaker 5: really feel really great about.
Speaker 4: That's gonna be just a good time.
Speaker 2: So tell me one song that you know you're going
Speaker 2: to perform.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 5: One song I know I'm going to perform is Praise God.
Speaker 5: That's one of my favorite ones. You know, it's a
Speaker 5: really simple, really simple song, but it touches me every day.
Speaker 4: It's like a daily mantra.
Speaker 3: I know that you are an exceptional singer, but you
Speaker 3: don't in other words, sometimes I think it gets lost
Speaker 3: in your musical virtuosity.
Speaker 2: Oh we're hot. Now, wait a minute, what happened?
Speaker 8: At?
Speaker 2: What changed?
Speaker 8: We just had?
Speaker 3: Has some We'll fix it during the break, because we've
Speaker 3: got to make sure we get you on this show.
Speaker 2: This is a live show, so stuff happens.
Speaker 4: It's on.
Speaker 3: Good all right. Well, how do you know? I lost
Speaker 3: my train of thought? So you know, why does your
Speaker 3: voice get lost? I think in your virtuosity? Do you
Speaker 3: is it something that you personally take as much pride
Speaker 3: in as you're playing or is it your secondary to
Speaker 3: your playing?
Speaker 4: Oh no, it's the same.
Speaker 5: I look at at now singing as if I'm playing.
Speaker 5: Actually my singing to me now is over my playing. Really,
Speaker 5: I think it's harder for people to get that and
Speaker 5: grasp that because I spent the better part of my
Speaker 5: life playing in front of people and just you know,
Speaker 5: being an instrumentalist and going viral for being an instrumentalist.
Speaker 4: So whenever you change, whenever.
Speaker 5: You start to do something different, people are like, WHOA,
Speaker 5: why aren't you still taking solos?
Speaker 4: And I'm like, I've been singing since I was a kid.
Speaker 5: I started singing in church when I was like, you know,
Speaker 5: six seven years old, and it's not new to me
Speaker 5: per se to be singing out now in the world,
Speaker 5: you know, as a career. So I feel like the
Speaker 5: voice kind of touches people and it gets to people
Speaker 5: closer than any instrument. I think most people can get
Speaker 5: with it. And I'd spent a lot of time listening
Speaker 5: to some of my favorite singers and just trying to
Speaker 5: shed my singing chops, and some people get with it, hopefully.
Speaker 5: And if you're doing it's okay because I'm a singer.
Speaker 2: Now, can I get you to play us out to
Speaker 2: the break?
Speaker 3: Corey Henry joins us in studio at Corey Henry On

Speaker 5: sound that I like, right, and then after I find
Speaker 5: a sound, I would pull up the measure of the bars.
Speaker 5: I tap a tempo out over here, you know, and
Speaker 5: then I'm just like you know, and then I'm like,
Speaker 5: record to what couple text based online or core progression
