Yolanda DeBerry Crowned Winner of T.D. Jakes’ & Marquis Boone’s “THE GOSPEL!”

Hello World,

Six gospel artists had the chance of a lifetime to perform before Bishop T.D. Jakes and Pastor Marquis Boone on their competition reality show “The Gospel.” Yolanda DeBerry (stage name “Yoli”) was declared the winner of the competition Gospel show, and was rewarded a national management contract with T.D. Jakes’ Dexterity Sounds and Marquis Boone Music Group.

Hailing from Jamaica Queens, NY, Yoli comes from a family of musicians. She found her passion for Gospel music when she joined her church’s music ministry as a little girl. On the show, she spent 8 weeks training and developing as an artist. Ultimately, she took home the win and will be on her way to being the next big thing in Gospel music!

“Yoli is that talent that has been groomed in the shadows and comes to the for front ready. She is that talent that you waited for, that talent that allows her life experiences to fuel her gift of singing. I’m excited to work with her,” says Marquis Boone of the Marquis Boone Music Group.

“The Gospel” chronicled eight episodes as contestants competed for a national management contract with T.D. Jakes’ Dexterity Sounds and Marquis Boone Music Group. The first of its kind for Gospel music, Yoli was announced as the winner of this Christian music competition at Bishop T.D. Jakes International Pastors & Leadership Conference in Tampa Bay on April 27. The show was executive produced by T.D. Jakes and Marquis Boone and hosted by Darlene McCoy. Contestants were discovered via video recordings submitted on social media and through the Bishop’s Village platform.

Mentors, including Micah Stampley, Jekalyn Carr, Q Parker, Devyne Stephens and more, helped mold them into polished performers. Not only did the artists have the opportunity to discover their stardom, but they also experienced the hustle and drive that is necessary to rise in the entertainment industry. Each week, viewers subscribed to Bishop’s Village were able to vote and select the winner of the artists’ weekly challenge.

Bishop T.D. Jakes & Marquis Boone are excited to work with Yoli and believe the viewers made a great choice. “We are ready to get in the studio and start crafting something amazing to present to the world,” says Marquis Boone.

If you missed the series you can watch it exclusively on T.D. Jakes’ online streaming platform with behind the scene videos, messages and content. Visit bishopsvillage.com.

GRAMMY Award-Winning Worship Artist Tasha Cobbs Leonard to Launch Brunch Event Featuring Yolanda Adams, ‘Greenleaf’s’ Deborah Joy Winans & More…

Hello World,

GRAMMY Award-winning worship artist Tasha Cobbs Leonard is set to launch CANDID, a series of empowering and ground-breaking events for women. Taking the ‘girls brunch’ concept to a new level, Cobbs Leonard will host the first CANDID, an exciting brunch event on Saturday, June 15, 2019, in Atlanta, GA!

Cobbs Leonard aims to offer an inviting, and open forum to inspire and encourage women to understand their potential, and live their best lives! Whether it’s launching a new business, or pursuing a passion, Cobbs Leonard wants women to tap into the possibilities, and understand that now is their time to reach for their dream. The CANDID brunch series brings together the best from entrepreneurs and creatives to philanthropists and influencers to share their stories and strategies in an intimate and fun setting.

“I wanted to take the true meaning of the African proverb ‘it takes a village to raise a child’ and support the ‘village’ in that statement — women represent the village in our communities,” Cobbs Leonard said. “We [women] support our husband, raise our children, create our own business, mentor future generations – that often times we miss the opportunity to inspire ourselves and show up for US. I wanted to create a safe space where we can do just that.”

Like every good brunch, there will be good food, great conversation and lots of laughs. Tasha invited her personal village of amazing women to join her at the inaugural CANDID brunch. The incredible line up of speakers includes legendary GRAMMY Award-winner Yolanda Adams; social influencer, TV Star Marlo Hampton (Who knew that Marlo Hampton and Tasha Cobbs Leonard are friends?); Gospel music icon and favorite Kierra Sheard; actress Deborah Joy Winans from OWN’s “Greenleaf” and social media CEO Ivy McGregor.

Tickets are available now by visiting: https://ticketlocity.com/event/view/CANDID.
