Rejoice and Shout



This film, REJOICE AND SHOUT, seems as if its going to be a good one. I got the following excerpt from Magnolia Picture's website:


"Rejoice and Shout traces the evolution of Gospel through its many musical styles – spirituals and early hymns, four-part harmony-based quartets, the integration of blues and swing into Gospel, the emergence of Soul, and the blending of Rap and Hip Hop elements."


I am definitely going to check this out. I thoroughly enjoyed @vh1soul's documentary of the linkage between Gospel music and today's different music genres. This new film opens in DC at the West End Cinema on June 17th.


Oh, and it's right around the corner from Dusk lounge, one of my hideaways in the city.
