Review by Joslyn Layne
WOW Gospel 2001 is a two-disc mix of contemporary gospel songs from artists who have been around awhile, like CeCe Winans and Shirley Caesar, as well as from brand new acts like New Direction and Tonéx. The cuts are by acts ranging from gospel choirs (the Tommies), to hip-hop-minded artists with a message (B.B. Jay), and include cuts from chart-topping albums like Mary Mary's Thankful ("Shackles").
