John Jay Reveals How Bishop T.D. Jakes Inspired Him to Release His New Album & Single

Gospel music artist John Jay has just released his brand new single"Better," a song of empowerment and encouragement wrapped in a moving rhythm and vibe. "Better" contains lyricism to keep listeners uplifted and motivated. John Jay engages his powerful vocal ensemble to set the tone and groove for the single laced with nostalgic Hip Hop and Go-Go influences.
"Better" is taken from Jay's album The Dreamer's Session - Live. The set was recorded in 2016, but it took an epiphany to convince Jay that the time had come to share it with the world. "I wasn't sure if I would release it but was inspired by a message preached by Bishop T.D. Jakes," he explained. "He spoke about how some people go through life and never give themselves wholly to anything or anyone. I felt convicted, and a new hope was sparked."
The Dreamer's Session - Live features songstress LeJuene Thompson on "Watch Him Work", and The Bakery Nashville Orchestra on "Big Things Start Small." John's father and renowned Gospel organist, John "Binky" Flowers, provides a special interlude on the album.
"The road to success is never easy. I've had many challenges, but the biggest was my inner struggles," says John Jay. "I want my album to inspire and motivate people to push beyond negative emotions and take hold of every good thing God has for them, just beyond their doubt and fear."
Pushing the boundaries of his talents, John Jay is also adding new layers to what Gospel music can be with his THE DREAMERS SESSION - LIVE. You can experience his carefully crafted and poignant musical compositions by pre-ordering the album and streaming "Better" now.
