The strategic collaboration of Alpha Dog and Tyscot Records has garnered a historical #1 debut on the Billboard Gospel Charts.
Tyscot Records celebrates its first #1 album debut in the 31 year history of the longest running independent Gospel label in the country as Bishop Jones and his church choir rejoice for charting at number 1 with their first CD.
The forecast for the project looked promising well before its June 26 release. Bryant Scott, Tyscot President stated online sales for Welcome to the City were at a record 15 times more that any other new project they have touched. That includes works by John P. Kee, the Anointed Pace Sisters, Deitrick Haddon and other top names in gospel.
"This is exciting because this is Bishop Jones' first release and not many artists have a #1 debut on their first project," says Bryant Scott - President, Tyscot Records. "We are very proud of this CD, which is in stores and online everywhere, along with the exclusive two-disc DigiPak version sold exclusively at Wal-mart and walmart.com." A grand album release concert was held at the Gardena, CA sanctuary on the Sunday before the album release which featured a pre-recorded congratulatory message from Diddy, who is a member of the 20,000 City of Refuge.
Still climbing the Radio & Records charts is the lead off single "Not About Us" produced by Gerald Haddon.
The video makes its debut on BET's Video Gospel this Sunday morning at 10:00 AM EST. Take a look by clicking HERE.
