BeBe Winans, Grammy® Award-winning singer, songwriter, producer is preparing to release a new project in 2012. America America will be a collection of patriotic songs and a celebration of the heritage and history the country shares.
In addition to nine classic songs that honor the nation, Winans has penned three original songs: the lead single “America America,” “We’re the United States of America,” and the poignant “Ultimate Sacrifice.” The latter is a tribute to the troops, acknowledging and thanking them for their personal sacrifice.
Winans plans to release a video for the single in the coming weeks. The video was shot in New York City and Washington D.C.
In the fall of 2011, BeBe Winans, along with his sister CeCe Winans, was honored with a star on the prestigious Hollywood Walk of Fame. The duo’s 2010 album, Still, their first album as a duo in 15 years, is approaching Gold status. The album and singles together appeared on eight charts in total including #2 on the Gospel Album Artists chart; #3 on the Best Gospel Album chart, as well as Top 25 honors on both the Independent Albums chart and Adult R&B Songs chart. Still won two Grammy® Awards in 2011.
“I have seen the power of music,” says Winans. “If we all come together, we all win. When our country is united, we find the path to success.”
America America is BeBe Winans’ seventh solo release. The album includes American classics, “America the Beautiful,” “Lift Every Voice,” “The Battle Hymn of the Republic,” and the national anthem, “The Star Spangled Banner.”
