Documentary on Archbishop Carl Bean to Premiere at the 2025 Tribeca Film Festival
I am proud to serve as a contributing producer to this documentary on the life of Archbishop Carl Bean. In 1977, Archbishop Carl Bean made history by recording his disco hit “I Was Born this Way,” celebrated as the world’s first gay anthem, and setting the stage for a revolution in queer music. All-star interviews with Lady Gaga, Questlove, Billy Porter, and Dionne Warwick paint a portrait of a larger-than-life figure who left an indelible mark on the genre and paved the way for future generations of LGBTQ+ artists to find their voice in mainstream music.
JGM Pick of the Week: January 23, 2024
Reggie Campbell has been in the independent gospel music community for some time—JGM reviewed his 2014 single “I’ve Got Joy”—but “In My Arms” is his best release to date.
“Been Good” – Lil Prince & Company
The acorn doesn’t fall far from the tree: Lil Prince’s group sings in the tradition of his father's Gospel Hi-Lites.
