It was challenging for me saying, 'wow I got to listen to him,'" Winans told CP with a laugh. "It took me awhile to get my arms around it because it was something that I hadn't done before, as far as styling. When she finally accepted her son's idea to record the album, it wasn't easy for her to switch gears as a professional and let him be the boss. While the theatrics of the album's composition are now exciting for Winans to hear, the veteran gospel music star admits she wasn't initially on board when her son shared his vision for the project with her four years ago. CeCe Winans' "Let Them Fall in Love" is in stores on February 3, 2017. In an album that plays like a film score, listeners are taken through a range of emotions that may inspire them to dance or cry out to God.
Songs like "Hey Devil" featuring fellow Detroit-natives The Clark Sisters serve as an example of that fun that transports listeners back to the '50s or '60s for a dance party that provides them with a blueprint to cast out the devil. I felt like this body of songs was something that would speak to people's hearts but was fun." "I didn't want to go in again unless I felt like I had something of substance that would make noise and make an impact. I never want to to do a record just to do a record or because it's been so long," she told CP.
"For me to go back into the studio I wanted to make sure I had something to say. The singer told The Christian Post that she wanted to do more than just resurface with new music, she wanted to make a bold statement. While fans of Winans will still find her strong vocals effortlessly belting out signature ballads like "Never Have to Be Alone," they may be surprised to hear an edgier sound in songs like "Run to Him."Īside from the bold production that borrows from Motown, '60s pop music and even country western influences, Winans admits that her latest album may lyrically be her strongest yet. In her latest offering, "Let Them Fall in Love," Winans teams up with her 32-year-old son, Alvin Love III, who wrote and produced most of the album. She's ready to capture the hearts of their children, and their children's children, with a bold new sound. Nine years since CeCe Winans released her last solo album, she's back to do more than just reclaim the ears of fans who've supported her for three decades.
