GRAMMY® and Stellar Award-winning artist, actress, and entrepreneur, Kierra Sheard, released her highly anticipated album KIERRA (Karew Entertainment / RCA Inspiration). Marking her sixth studio album and first project with RCA Inspiration. KIERRA includes the songstress’ latest single “It Keeps Happening,” and the popular anthem “Don’t Judge Me,” featuring Missy Elliott. Also, the album is accompanied by the release of a new video for another single, the atmosphere moving, “Something Has To Break (Live)” featuring Tasha Cobbs Leonard.
The album includes 15-tracks with sounds ranging from Pop, R&B, Hip-Hop, and Gospel, and features some live recorded songs which Kierra performed before a sold-out crowd in her hometown of Detroit, MI. Demonstrating her lyricism, Kierra either wrote or co-wrote all of the tracks on the album including the beautiful ballad “Grateful,” the authentic and raw “Human,” and “Better.” My favorites of the work are the first track with Missy Elliott, “Don’t Judge Me”. To me, this song is the plea that many Christians face balancing the scrutiny from the “holier than thou” and living life in general. Also, the soul-stirring, “Something Has to Break” featuring Tasha Cobbs Leonard gets me out of my seat into worship every time. The album also features vocals from Gospel Artists: Todd Dulaney, Le’Andria Johnson, and Kierra’s nephew Jacob Sheard.
