nae AKER New Releases Bee May 31, 2011 Trin-i-Tee 5:7 - Angel & Chanelle - Universal- EMICMG Three high school classmates in New Orleans formed this chart-topping group in 1997—as well as their original, scrip- ture-derived moniker. The soul-styled ballads and club- friendly tracks on their debut, self-titled album earned Trin-i-tee 5:7 a Stellar Award for Best New Artist. In 2000, their sophomore CD Spiritual Love went to #1 on the gospel chart and #5 on the R&B sales chart. After a renewing five years off, the group’s comeback album T57 won two Dove Awards, a Grammy nomination and an invite to perform during the Grammy broadcast with Aretha Franklin, BeBe Winans, Israel & New Breed and the Clark Sisters. It was a comeback made even more triumphant after the loss and devastation of Hurricane Katrina. In the spring of 2011, Trin-i-tee 5:7 original members Angel Taylor and Chanelle Haynes move forward as a duo, releasing their highly anticipated 7th studio album Tedashii - BlackLight - Reach Records - Infinity Dist. While Tedashii’s robust stature and delivery on the mic catch the attention of most, his gentle spirit hints at an even deeper story behind the man and the music. Black- Light in the Bible deals with 2 Corinthians 4A:16-18 where one can have hope to stand before God jusitfied. As Tedashii puts it “the inner man grows as the outter man wates away...there is more to us that needs to be revealed or seen in the light of eternity.” LIVE WITH THE END IN MIND
