Erica Campbell's 'HELP' Wins Grammy for Best Gospel Album; '2.0' Version Features New Tracks
Erica Campbell's solo career reached new heights this weekend when she won the Grammy Award for Best Gospel Album.
Already a multiple Grammy Award winner for her work with Mary Mary, this is Campbell's first Grammy as a solo artist. She was recognized for solo debut album HELP which was released last March.
"Thrilled! Overwhelmed! Honored! God is faithful and amazing," said Campbell after her win. "I'm just going to keep on singing like I've been singing."
HELP continues to be among the top-selling Gospel albums this year. This win comes on the heels of Erica's 10 Stellar Award nominations and a Dove Award and Soul Train Music Award win.
Campbell kicked off the weekend performing for the Grammy Legacy Foundation Concert benefiting NARAS related charities. She honored Grammy® Lifetime Achievement Award recipient Stevie Wonder with an amazing, high-energy performance of "Higher Ground" with Robin Thicke.
Not one to rest on her laurels, Campbell will present a re-release album on March 31st called HELP 2.0 featuring two new songs, "I Luh God," and her new single "More Love."
HELP 2.0 will be released on MyBlock/eOne and feature never before heard music, remixes of her hits and several guest artists including "A Little More Jesus," featuring Fantasia and Lisa Knowles. "More Love," is available now digitally on iTunes. Campbell plans to hit the road this spring for the HELP 2.0 tour which kicks off on May 1st in Baltimore MD.
Campbell's hit TV show, Mary Mary, returns on March 5th for the 4th Season on WE tv.
