Mandisa's album will feature production by Shaun Shankel (Destiny's Child) and Doubledutch (tobyMac) and reflect the singer's personal struggles, joys, and her passionate faith.
Beyond her remarkable musical ability, Mandisa quickly became a positive role model for millions of women by gracefully responding to American Idol judge Simon Cowell's derogatory remarks about her weight on live television. Quite open now about her lifelong battle with food addiction, Mandisa will also publish a book regarding that issue this summer and is now a spokesmodel for Ashley Stewart Stores.
"I am a living witness that God can do immeasurably more than we could ever ask or imagine," says Mandisa. "Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be a recording artist, an author, and a model! I am so thankful for my experience on ‘Idol,' both the good and the hard times. Because of it, I am living my dream."
Ahead of her own solo album debut, Mandisa is featured on two other new hit albums, TobyMac's PORTABLE SOUNDS and BETH MOORE PRESENTS: SONGS OF DELIVERANCE.
