Yolanda Adams has a beautiful voice · Jan 5, 08:58 AM by Music Man
Adams has a strong, resonant voice and is also a beauty. She later recorded for Tribute Records in 1990 and launched a series of top gospel albums which established her on Gospel radio. She won several awards. Adams veered away from gospel music after spending 10 years singing in that genre and signed up with Elektra Records. She released the album “Mountain High…Valley Low” in 1999.
Following the release of Mountain High, Adams released a modern album that became a hit with pop and urban listeners. So after 10 years of gospel music, Adams landed with top 5 R&B and top 40 Pop hits that stayed on the charts for over a year. This earned her a Grammy – her very first – for the prize, “Best Contemporary Soul Gospel.”
Adams released a Christmas album, and then followed “Mountain High” with “Believe”, believed to be a mainstream, less ambitious disc that had moderate success along with “Never Give Up.” “The Experience” was the title of her live album which showcased not only her talent but also her unique ability in performing.
Adams had a child but was divorced after an unhappy marriage.
She works with inner city school children in collaboration with FILA.
