Five-time Grammy Award-winning gospel legend Karen Clark Sheard is poised to set the industry ablaze with her upcoming album, Still Karen. This album is a powerful testament to her enduring talent and innovative spirit, bringing a fresh twist to the nostalgic sounds of two of her most iconic albums: Finally Karen and Second Chance.
Still Karen is a masterful blend of worship songs, urban contemporary music, soaring ballads, and unmatched vocal stylings that showcase Karen Clark Sheard in ways we haven’t heard before. This album truly has something for everyone, catering to a wide range of musical tastes and spiritual needs.
During her last stint on ‘The Reunion Tour,’ Karen left audiences clamoring for more with viral clips that showcased her extraordinary talent. In Still Karen, she delivers beyond expectations. The album exudes a “homecoming” feel, featuring many producers who have been instrumental in her illustrious career. This includes music from Mano Hanes, J Moss, J Drew Sheard II, and A&R consulting from the legendary Donald Lawrence.
The fresh sound of renowned musicians such as Anthony Brown, Anita Wilson, Charles Jenkins, and Karen’s daughter, Kierra Sheard, adds to the album’s excitement. The album’s Executive Producer, 13-time Grammy Award-winner Pharrell Williams, has contributed his exceptional touch to this dynamic body of work. This incredible mixture of some of the industry’s most talented musicians has created a collection of songs that will make a significant impact not only in gospel music but in music history as a whole.
J. Drew Sheard II, head of the Karew Entertainment label and Co-Executive Producer of Still Karen, shared his vision for the album: “I wanted to create something that the fans would really enjoy. I brought together many of the greats that I’ve looked up to and have been so instrumental in KCS’s career. I can’t wait for the listener to feel enriched both musically and spiritually while enjoying both good music and the love of Jesus Christ.”
He adds, “This is by far one of the most versatile albums she’s ever had. It encompasses urban sounds, CCM (Contemporary Christian Music), trap, ballads, worship, gospel funk, and more! It really is unlike any body of work you’ve ever heard before.”
