Last month Erica Campbell of Mary Mary released a solo album called Help 2.0 that made her take some heat for venturing into such a branch of Southern hip-hop known as “trap gospel.” Her song was said to resemble secular club music a little too closely for gospel purists and very similar to that experienced by Kirk Franklin.
Hear Kirk Franklin's response...
“It’s very hard when you hear churches talk about you, and some people start to question your heart, and when some people start to question your motives, it could be very hard for you because you’re in your early 20s and you don’t really understand what all the fuss is about, because you’re doing just what’s real to you.“I am very, very good friends with Erica, and...
she has a great heart for God, she has a great heart for ministry, and I just believe that the heart always wins,” – Kirk Franklin
"If you're into the gospel music scene, you know Erica Campbell as half of the duo Mary Mary. Last month she released a solo album called Help 2.0.

It resembles secular club music a little too closely for gospel purists.

Mary Mary for life.... nothing do u kirk franklin
I think her song needs to be reviewed. She really went out of line
As long as her song glorifies Jesus Christ, I see nothing wrong with it. Let her just do her thing abeg
