People are listening. Belle's first gospel album, "Love Forever Shines," released in the spring, is No. 7 on Billboard's top gospel albums chart. The CD contains traditional, contemporary and jazz-tinged ballads. Belle says there's not only a difference in the content of her music, but also in herself.
In a recent interview with The Associated Press, Belle talked about what it takes to sing gospel, and why she's doing it.
AP: What's the difference in preparation when you get on stage to sing secular music versus religious music?
Belle: Huge, it's a huge difference. You've got to take into account too that this past Mother's Day I celebrated 21 years in the industry. Even with R&B I get nervous, but there is a comfortability in that when I sing that first note, I sit in my comfortability. So it's gliding for the rest of the show, because I know how to operate the controls.
