Tye is not very well known this side of the pond, but he keeps rather famous company, such as Sting, Stevie Wonder and Justin Timberlake in concerts or studio environments. A live concert recorded in Philadelphia, the general theme of the disc is spiritual warfare using praise and worship as a weapon. Musically there are some outstanding moments, the funky opener "I Want It Back" and "Sinking" to name but two. However, there are moments where it all seems to go average - an example of this is "Everything Will Be Alright", which was hard to concentrate on after a while, and even though it featured renowned diva Kim Burrell it still didn't connect. At its best this is reasonable contemporary gospel though Tye has yet to get to the heights occupied by the likes of Kirk Franklin.
