(Or: 2004 tracks that your portable player can't do without for 2005).
WHATEVER SUBGENRE
of Urban gospel music takes your fancy, 2004 would more than likely have provided you with some memorable music moments.
And as we come up to the launch of another raft of key UK Gospel.com industry support initiatives (namely UKG SPIN!, our 100% UK Online radio station, UKG SHOP, the 100% UK gospel online store, and UKG DOWNLOAD, our 100% UK Music Download service) it's time to cast our eye in the direction of some of the music that pretty much lives in my portable player, dominating the top of my personal play list.
