Anthony Brown Hits Number One With Second Wind

Gold-selling gospel act, ANTHONY BROWN & group therAPy, debut at No. 1* on this week’s Billboard Top Gospel Albums chart with their fourth album, 2econd Wind: Ready (Key of A / Tyscot / FairTrade). In addition, the album also debuted at No. 1* on the Billboard Gospel Album Sales chart and generated over 1 million on demand streams in its first week. The 13-track set includes the go-go flavored track, “Blessings on Blessings,” which spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Gospel Airplay chart over the summer; and the mid-tempo “Real” which features the Grammy® Award nominated artist, Jonathan McReynolds. The collection also boasts an appearance from Mary Mary’s Erica Campbell and Hip-Hop artist 1K Phew on the cut, “He Always Wins”, as well as, a mesmerizing vocal performance from 20-year old rising star, Kelontae Gavin, on the title track 2econd Wind. From meditative praise and worship to power bangers, 2econd Wind: Ready is an exhilarating mix of spiritually uplifting, healing, and rejuvenating songs.

“The album is my personal testimony of a time when I was mentally exhausted and couldn’t find the strength to record in-between albums. Through God’s grace, I received my second wind: a second wind to encourage and give hope lyrically. Continue to trust and see God, He will grant your second wind,” says ANTHONY BROWN.

2econd Wind: Ready was recorded live on May 3, 2019 at First Baptist Church of Glenarden in Upper Marlboro, MD where Brown serves on the Music & Arts Ministry staff.
