On the Rise: Donovan Owens Releases Debut Album

ontherisedonovanowens

You may have first heard this young talent on Kirk Franklin’s latest album “The Fight of My Life” on the track "A Whole Nation." He was 11-years-old at the time and truly brought the song to life with his powerful vocals, singing about the importance of fathers raising their children.

Now 12-year-old Donovan Owens is releasing an album of his own, and he’s ready to minister to the whole nation with his amazing God-given gifts. Donovan’s debut album “All That I Have” will be released online Saturday, June 20th, by Diversity Records.

On the album Donovan sings about life as a young person, and the difference in his stride: “If I don’t go to every party, and I don’t hang with everybody is that wrong,” he sings on the single “I’ll Be That.” He continues the song standing his ground for God: “I know you’re thinking that its strange that I choose to be this way, when everybody else has gone astray… they can say anything about me, but you’re never gonna break me down.” The song has a cool R&B flavor and a catchy beat, and people of any age can relate to the lyrics. Donovan delivers smooth vocals throughout the album and shows that he’s not new the scene, having performed alongside Gospel greats such as Dorinda Clark-Cole.

On June 20th Donovan will also host an album release concert in his hometown of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, at the Christian Faith Fellowship Church. The concert will include performances by Serita Campbell and Mark Anthony Harris. For full concert details click here.
