“I Want the World to Know”Desiree Coleman Jackson
From the CD My Voice is My Weapon
A jumping polyrhythmic backbeat fuels “I Want the World to Know,” an infectious mid-tempo praise song by Desiree Coleman Jackson that will make shoulders shake and hands clap.
Just how good is God to “Dez” Coleman? “You make a girl kick off her shoes and dance as your spirit runs through,” she sings. The enthusiasm of this Jamaica, Queens native to tell the world how she feels is so bright and unbridled you can imagine her shaking off her shoes and praise dancing in the aisles.
Aided by none other than Patti LaBelle, who helped the young songster land a record deal with Motown, Desiree started in the R&B music field but is now singing gospel. She is married to NBA hall-of-famer and coach Mark Jackson and a mother of four.
