BET’s Sunday Best Season Four champ Amber Bullock “Amberizes” this Walter Hawkins selection, making it her first single and the title of her debut CD, released last week.

To a punchy arrangement with thumping bass and vigorous background vocalists, Bullock surveys the day’s social problems from the “there but for the grace of God go I” point of view. She thanks the Lord “for all you’ve done for me,” and given what she’s gone through this year, it’s a testimony-packed statement.

“Thank You” is a fine but not overdone showcase for Bullock’s gospel runs and trills.  The soulful musicians bathe the single in just the right combination of contemporary and R&B. Produced by Eric Dawkins for E Flat Entertainment.
