n today’s political climate, unity is needed more than ever. There’s something about gospel music that helps bring that unity forth, in addition to providing an uplifting message for listeners. Pastor Darrell Kelley has set out to promote a unified front from the gospel community, in hopes that listeners and fans will adhere to the messaging. After breaking into the gospel music scene, Kelley has continued utilizing his inherent talent of spreading light and positivity to anyone who will listen.
After Kelley released his hit single “Unity” earlier this year, he has noticed how listeners have flocked toward him. As this is the goal for any entertainer, he only plans to continue blazing ahead in his career. He’s been in the game for several years, and has no plans in stopping anytime soon. “I own a restaurant called Soul Delicious, and we do a gospel concert every year. My gospel group kept inviting me to perform, and I’ve done it ever since. I’ve been writing and producing since 2013,” said Kelley. Kelley is a wearer of many hats, and his versatility and effectiveness in being so relatable has helped him gain footing in the industry.
Darrell Kelley is back on the scene with a new single titled ‘Believe in Something (Kneel)”, which is an ode to NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick’s movement. Freedom of speech and the power to proclaim what you believe in is at the forefront of the song’s theme, which is crucially important to Kelly. You see, Kelley places an emphasis on each person’s individualistic ideas and beliefs, especially in the case of Kaepernick. The song shines light on the movement in a positive way, therein giving a voice to people who want to exercise their given rights.
