Mandisa Drops New Album “What if We Were Real”

On the day that Mandisa released her new single, Stronger, she stepped on her scales and learned she had lost her 100th pound. That moment marked a milestone for her: Not only had 100 pounds been a personal goal for the former American Idol finalist, but it was a long, long way from where she was when Simon Cowell told her, “We’re going to have to get a bigger stage for you.” She’s also got a brand-new album called “What if We Were Real,” out today.

Mandisa is returning to the Women of Faith Tour. She says. “I have learned so much being a part of this organization and look forward to so much more! Oh! And I can’t wait to sing some of my new songs too!”
