What can we
expect from you and GA?
Tye Tribett: Expect a lot of
energy. A lot of anointing. A lot of
celebration. Always expect the
unexpected.
If you had the
opportunity who would you want to work
with in Hip Hop?
Tye Tribett: I would love to
work with Andre 3000 from Outkast. He’s
not boxed in to the regular sounds. He
does whatever comes to mind and it’s
most successful. I just appreciate his
creativity and his willingness to be
different and daring. Cause I’m the same
way in gospel. So I can’t wait to hook
up with him. Tell him about Jesus
Christ. That way we can do something
with Jesus together.
How did singing
gospel music come about?
Tye Tribett: I’ve been
singing in church all my life.
What was most
exciting to you about singing at the BET
Gospel Celebration?
Tye Tribett: The sound check.
Because we got to listen to other
artists.
So tomorrow
night, you’ll be watching the show for
the first time yourself?
Tye Tribett: Yes! I’m gonna
be tuned in with my popcorn like
everybody else.
What are you
most proud of in yourself and gospel
music?
Tye Tribett: I am proud of
the expansion of gospel but I don’t want
it to change. I don’t want Shirley
Caesar to start singing hip hop. And I
don’t want The Hawkins to sound like Tye
Tribett. But I’m just glad that their
opening their arms and accepting
different styles of gospel music. I am
happy that it’s growing but we still
have the foundation.
Where is God
taking gospel?
Tye Tribett: I don’t think
what God wants us to do have been seen
yet.
What do you
feel God is trying to tell his people?
Tye Tribett: I would say this
is almost a wrap. I believe Jesus is
really coming back. I believe times are
getting worst and worst and worst. I
believe that we are getting little
warnings that God is getting fed up. So
on my next album I would like to be the
Noah saying listen ya’ll come on get
with God because it’s about to rain. At
the end of all your ice and your cars,
there’s Heaven or Hell. I would
encourage people to live life towards
heaven.
