Houston, TX native Yolanda Adams never seems to reach the peak of her career. That’s because she’s always expanding and increasing to new heights that few Gospel artists have ever been to.
Yolanda’s latest CD ‘Becoming’ was released in 2011, with the hit song ‘Be Still’ currently resting in the top 5 of Billboard Gospel’s Chart. That’s an extraordinary accomplishment when you consider the fact that the top-selling artists’ song is still on the charts after 37 weeks. ‘Be Still’ is a song that ministers to so many, and PATH is proud to be the first media outlet to give you a little sneak peek of the conceptual idea for the music video.
Yolanda Adams has had an incredible 2011 even by her standards. It’s been a year that’s seen her sing in front of Gospel audiences and mainstream audiences alike. Yolanda has sung for presidents, stole the show at Michael Jackson’s tribute concert in Wales, and most recently at Dwyane Wade’s 30th birthday party in Miami. Adams passionately brought the Gospel to the funeral of late rapper Heavy D, and was even called upon to sing the national anthem at the NFL Houston Texans first ever playoff game.
With all that goes on in this busy women’s life she encourages us to be still and take time to be with God. The ‘Be Still’ music video illustrates this by featuring Yolanda being whisked away into day-to-day career activities, and then coming home in a relaxed house setting to be with the Lord. Adam’s has said in interviews, “That no matter how busy you get, you have to be still.” Be still and know that God is always by your side.
The entire video will be out at the end of the month, but take a look at the Sneak Peek below.
