Substance is a special album for the 13-time Grammy nominee and multi-decorated Gospel icon as it’s the first to be released on his own Elev8 Media & Entertainment label. The album is also the first to be recorded in Sapp’s newly built Fort Worth, Texas studio.

“This album is called Substance because it delivers applicable principles while giving listeners music that is enjoyable and uplifting,” says Sapp. “After everything that we have gone through over the past two years, I wanted to deliver an album with biblically-based lyrical content that is both fortifying and entertaining.”

The lead single “All In Your Hands,” written and produced by frequent collaborators Stan Jones and Aaron Lindsey, is a luminous reminder to relinquish worry, anxiety, fear, and doubt to the ever-knowing God who has an answer before the question is even asked.

In addition to being a gifted preacher, Marvin Sapp is an author, radio show host and internationally renowned singer who has enjoyed a decorated 30-year music career, receiving 24 Stellar Awards, two Soul Train Music Awards, two BET Awards, three Dove Awards and eight BMI Songwriter’s Awards for sales along with many other accolades and honors from national, regional and local institutions. He is a multiple Grammy and Billboard Award nominee. Sapp was named one of Billboard’s 2019 Top 10 Gospel Artists and his greatest hits collection, The Very Best Of Marvin Sapp, was one of Billboard’s Top 10 Gospel Albums of 2019. After a lifetime, literally, in his hometown of Grand Rapids, Michigan, Sapp moved to the Dallas Metroplex and became Senior Pastor of The Chosen Vessel Cathedral in Fort Worth, Texas on September 15, 2019.
