“He’s God,” the second single culled from the forthcoming Songs from the Storm, Phillip Carter & Sounds of Victory’s fifth CD, is a lushly orchestrated ode to the staying power of God.
The fifteen-member SOV ensemble contributes to the track, but the performance belongs to lead vocalist Phillip Carter. Carter emotes in hushed solemnity and with a heartbreakingly smooth, rich resonance, like Phil Tarver and Micah Stampley in ballad mode.
Carter and SOV are based in Maryland, where Carter serves as minister of music at Mt. Ephraim Baptist Church in Upper Marlboro, and is on the ministerial staff at Breath of Life Ministries in Palmer Park. He is the host of “Real Talk with Phillip Carter” on Henry Harris’ Internet radio station, www.SpiritCo1.com.
“He’s God” is a praise and worship ballad wrapped in a marvelously simple and lovely mantra-like melody. It’s a musical peppermint with a message and musicality aimed at lowering the high blood pressure of life.
