GRAMMY Award® nominated artist Tamela Mann drops new album ‘One Way’ September 9

GRAMMY Award® Nominated, NAACP Image Award® Winning Artist and Billboard Chart-Topping Singer Tamela Mann  (@DavidandTamela) releases her highly-anticipated new album One Way on September 9 on her Tillymann Music imprint through RED Distribution. One Way features the powerhouse vocalist on 12 tracks, including the Top-10 debut single “One Way” and the new single “God Provides,” written and produced by long-time friend and collaborating partner, Gospel Music Icon Kirk Franklin. One Way marks Tamela’s fourth solo studio album, a diverse collection of songs that inspires listeners on many levels.

“This project has been a labor of love,” Tamela said. “Songs by writers and producers from different genres all came together to fit into a beautiful puzzle. I believe this album is going to encourage so many – wherever they’re at. I hope people will open their hearts to receive the message of the songs.”

One Way’s executive producer team is a family affair, for the first time helmed by Tamela, her husband and business partner, actor David Mann and son David Mann Jr., and is produced by the acclaimed Myron Butler and David Mann. The album’s all-star guest producer credits, in addition to Franklin include Eric Dawkins, King Logan, Shaun Martin and Timbaland. Standout songs include the old-school vibe, up-tempo debut single “One Way” written and produced by Dawkins, the powerfully emotion-filled track “The Potter,” and the beautiful ballad “God Provides” written by Tamela’s “Take Me To The King” writer/producer Franklin.
