Today, three-time GRAMMY® nominee Mandisa releases Overcomer to an outpouring of acclaim as she readies to perform the project’s No. 1 single and title track on Good Morning America (GMA) this Thursday, August 29th.

The track peaked at No. 1 on the iTunes® Christian Singles Chart and is No. 1 on AC Indicator. Additionally, the song is Top 5 on the National Christian Audience chart with over 7.2 million in audience, further solidifying The Hollywood Reporter’s christening of Mandisa as one of the Top 5 Idols with the most Billboard chart-toppers.
