LEJUENE THOMPSON
With an easily recognizable voice that's known to a multitude of music lovers, gospel music powerhouse, LeJuene Thompson is back. After a brief hiatus following the release of her solo artist debut, Soul Inspiration, LeJuene is ready to ascend to the next level of her ministry. Currently, LeJuene is working on her second solo project Metamorphosis. Recorded live in Charlotte, NC and backed by a hot new group Dennis Reed & G.A.P., "Metamorphosis" is a project that will display a complete spiritual, mental, and emotional change in LeJuene's life, over the last five years. Gospel music lovers can look forward to foot-stomping songs like "I Gotta Feelin" and "Wait," while contemporary music lovers are sure to appreciate "The Praise" that will have you begging for more. LeJuene testifies to God's goodness in songs like "Tears" and "Vessel," which truly capture the essence of praise and worship. Teaming up with her husband Cedric Thompson who is a nominated Grammy, Stellar, and Dove award producer, LeJuene credits him with the overall theme and direction of this project. With Metamorphosis, both Cedric and LeJuene will be launching their new record label, "LeCe Entertainment". The release will be the first project from the label. Like with her first album, LeJuene's sole purpose for this record is to give God glory. However, LeJuene exhibits more intensity and fervor in that purpose and has matured a great deal creatively and in her relationship with God. While her first album was more inspirational, LeJuene has managed to escape the hype likened to that of creating her first album, in order to allow this project to delve more deeply into praise and worship. In addition to her music, LeJuene would now like to expand her ministry to include speaking/teaching. As a woman of God and mother herself, LeJuene has a heart to appeal to mothers and young women, sharing the life, joy and peace of God. On the musical front, she desires to cross bridges over various genres without compromising who she is, but always exhibiting who God is. Before stepping out on her own to attain her current eminence, LeJuene was a featured vocalist with Gospel's award-winning ensemble, Donald Lawrence and the Tri-City Singers. She most notably turned heads across the dial in early 2000 with her lead vocal on the group's smash hit, "Testify." The energetic cut from their Stellar Award winning album, tri-city4.com, not only topped Gospel playlists from coast to coast, but also peaked at No. 13 on Billboard Magazine's "Hot Dance Music/Club Play" chart. It also earned LeJuene the title "Diva in Waiting" from Billboard. Even prior to her stint with the Tri-City Singers, LeJuene had already begun to make her mark on the world of gospel music. She joined John P. Kee's renowned choir in the mid-80's and performed and recorded with them for four years. She would then sing and tour with a number of local choirs before joining the group, Promise, who released a major label album in 1990. Now, years and a great deal of sowing later, LeJuene has finally fulfilled her long-lived dream to be her own woman, singing her own song. As such, she has achieved the freedom to realize the dreams and visions that God has given her. However, she still approaches both her music and ministry with the same hard work, determination and purpose that's driven her to what she sees now as both a wonderful ending and exciting new beginning.
LeJuene is currently featured on Donald Lawrence & The Tri-City Singers "Finale" and John P. Kee and New Life's "Reunion" projects. |
