Grammy Award winning artist Smokie Norful debuted his new song on BET’s Celebration of Gospel a couple of months ago and now it is available to consumers.
“Say So,” the dynamic and head-nodding jam that had audiences on their feet, will go on sale on iTunes and other digital platforms on Tuesday, May 28th.
“Say So,” is being released to popular demand after Norful’s standout television performance with 9-year old son Ashton. Smokie & Ashton also perform the high energy song on this summer’s McDonald’s Inspiration Celebration Gospel Tour. “Say So,” is off of Norful’s forthcoming studio album IN THE MEANTIME to be released later this year on Tre’ Myles/Motown Gospel.
As part of the rollout Gospelpundit.com will post snippets of Smokie’s new video blog Hangin’ with Smokie Norful, where Norful shares behind the scenes footage and exclusive interviews.
Full videos will be available on the Official Smokie Norful Facebook page and supporters will have their own opportunity to “Say So” by sharing their own personal stories about why they are a believer.
Smokie brings Ashton along with him when he hits the road this month where he headlines The McDonald’s Inspiration Celebration Gospel Tour. The line up also includes Vickie Winans, Tamela Mann, Lecrae and John P. Kee. McDonald’s Inspiration Celebration Gospel Tour kicked off May 9 and runs through August 30.
