At first blush, the title of singer-songwriter Korey Bowie’s “Favor Ain’t Fair” might suggest that he is about to sing from the perspective of someone still wistfully awaiting the Lord’s favor.

Just the opposite: favor is all over him like sunshine, and it has the haters hating him even harder. But Bowie doesn’t mind, shouting jubilantly, “This is my life and my time, and I’m receiving what is mine.” If you feel the same way, he adds, don’t be afraid to revel in what is yours. All this over an appropriately bright, bouncy, shoulder-shaking contemporary gospel groove.
