MALCOLM WILLIAMS & GREAT FAITH
To truly know Malcolm Williams and understand his passion for gospel music, one must revisit his childhood, for this is when Williams was first introduced to the microcosm of music. At the age of six, Malcolm was appointed the director of the junior choir at the First Corinthian Missionary Baptist Church in Waukegan Illinois. Little did Malcolm know that this move would commence a musical career that now includes multiple albums, winning major corporate sponsored choir competitions, and more than 20 of his exclusive compositions appearing on 10 new albums in the last 15 months alone.

Recordings by gospel music notables Dorinda Clark-Cole, Dottie Peoples, The Gospel Music Workshop of America Mass Choir, Rodnie Bryant, Angela Spivey as well as, LJ Reynolds of the legendary R&B group, The Dramatics all feature creative works by Malcolm Williams.

Armed with two independent albums secured under his belt, Malcolm Williams is boldly leading his existing and new fans alike toward the highly anticipated album, Walking in My Destiny. The album, Williams third recording with his newly re-christened Great Faith Choir- and first album on the new Univocal Records imprint founded by music industry impresario Shawn Tate - reflects a blazing personal calling and internal conviction that is certain to inspire the faithful and those beyond its reach.

Walking in My Destiny confidently covers every genre from praise and worship to soulful ballads and misses nothing in between. "I don't like to be boxed into one genre of music," Williams explained. "There is something on the album for everyone."

The album’s opening anthem “Everything That Has Breath” supported by a four piece horn ensemble compliments of Baltimore’s Mo Horns Company blasts forth a message of adoration to the creator. "A Chance," a soothing mid-tempo psalm of hope reinforces determination and introduces the most skeptical to the believer’s attitude about life in Christ. “This song is most dear to me," Williams said. "I wrote this song the day that I was fired from my job. I knew in that moment that I didn't have to have another reason to praise God. All I needed was a chance."

Williams invited several guests to participate on Walking in My Destiny. Kim McFarland, best known from her years with Milton Brunson’s famed Thompson Community Singers lends her soaring vocals to "Due Season." The essence of the song is that “it's just time," Williams said. "I've gone through the test, I've passed the test and now it is time to reap the harvest! I knew Kim was the right voice to communicate the message of this timely song.”
