Hello! I’m Gail Nobles on The Gospel Greats. “Dear Future Me” is a gospel song by James Fortune. I’m impressed with the cover of the single. Half of his face is the future. The other half is probably him in the present, but what I’m most impressed with is his single, “Dear Future Me”.
James Fortune is a gospel music recording artist, songwriter, and producer. He is also a radio personality on 1190 AM WLIB. As much or more a preacher, choir leader, master of ceremonies, and worship service manager as he is straight -up singer. Fortune's strength is in understanding how to put gospel and praise songs over to a young 21st century audience, and with his featured choir, FIYA (which stands for Free in Yahweh's Abundance), he freely incorporates hip-hop arrangements and urban beats into his recordings according to his bio. You can hear it in his song, “Dear Future Me”.
In the song, James Fortune asked the questions that many of us ask when we are trying to get somewhere. Will I ever move from this place? Is it worth the fight? How Will I Know? Where Will I Go? You can hear the single on Spotify. So make sure to check it out. I’m Gail Nobles on The Gospel Greats.
