Churchin With Demetrius West

There’s nothing quite like the sound of the church, and Demetrius West and The Jesus Promoters are bringing that unmistakable energy back with their powerful new EP, LET’S HAVE CHURCH, available now from Blacksmoke Music Worldwide.

Multiple Stellar Award nominees, Demetrius West and his dynamic 40-member choir have carved out a distinctive place in Gospel music, earning recognition for their commanding vocals, spirited performances, and commitment to keeping the rich tradition of choir music alive. Their musical journey gained momentum with the 2015 release of JESUS PROMOTER.  In 2018, West and his impressive ensemble signed with Blacksmoke Music Worldwide, launching a successful partnership with the release of CHOIR OLOGY: THE STUDY OF CHOIR MUSIC. The project earned Stellar Award, Steeple Award, and Rhythm of Gospel Award nominations, while its lead single, “Open the Floodgates,” climbed to #2 on Billboard’s Gospel Radio chart.

The momentum continued with DO IT AGAIN,which delivered the group’s first #1 Billboard radio hit, “I’m Next.” They followed with OLD FELLOWSHIP HOUR in 2022, further establishing their reputation as one of Gospel music’s exciting contemporary choir ensembles.

Now, Demetrius West and The Jesus Promoters are ready to turn up the praise once again with LET’S HAVE CHURCH.  This five-track musical celebration captures the power, passion, and unmistakable spirit of traditional Gospel choir music.

Among the EP’s highlights is the ensemble’s stirring interpretation of Walter Hawkins’ beloved classic, “Jesus Christ Is The Way,” giving listeners a fresh opportunity to experience a timeless Gospel favorite through The Jesus Promoters’ signature sound.  The project also includes “All That He Said,” featuring guest vocalist Jason Clayborn.The song delivers an uplifting message of hope and a powerful declaration of God’s faithfulness and the certainty that His promises will never fail

“The lyrics communicate a clear and accessible message of hope, encouraging listeners to remain confident in God’s promises despite adversity, uncertainty, and the challenges of life,” says Demetrius West.
