“Rain On Me”
Maurice Griffin
From the MGM Music Group CD
I Am Somebody 1 Peter 2:9 (2011)
“Rain On Me” is a quiet-to-intense praise and worship ballad by BET Sunday Best Season Two finalist and GMWA Gospel Treasure champ Maurice Griffin. The young Chicagoan’s elastic gospel voice calls and answers the background group’s hypnotic chanting like a VaShawn Mitchell in the making.
“His Praises” is the current single from Griffin’s new CD, but “Rain On Me” best illustrates the expressiveness of his gospel tenor. Griffin continues to gain strength as a vocalist and my guess is the best is yet to come.
