Emcee N.I.C.E. says:
“We joined forces with Those Baxters and are curating a radio station that’s different from contemporary gospel,” . “This is out of the box R&B gospel.”
Dubbed R&P, Gospel’s R&B, the station will break the mold of traditional and contemporary gospel.
“You’re so used to all of the traditional stations being into quartets and choirs and the traditional gospel,” . “Here, you’ll be able to hear a Jor’Dan Armstrong do a ‘90s R&B inspired song for God. That’s essentially what’s going on in a lot of these records coming out.”
