During the 18th and 19th centuries, countless native Africans were brought to America as slaves. While slavery set them part from homes and families, it couldn’t take away their music. When they were exposed to Christianity, they learned the European hymns and combined them with traditional African music to create their own style of music, all while working in the field. With heart and soul they praise God, and yes, they also gave birth to Gospel Music.

Gospel Music has a deep impact to the development of R&B, Soul, Hip-Hop, Jazz and Rock etc. From a musician prospective, Gospel Music is full of challenges as it’s a mixed of music genres like Jazz, Blues, Funk.
