Lawrence,
Franklin Hit
Milestones
Donald Lawrence (above)
banks his fifth Gospel
Airplay No. 1 with “Deliver
Me (This Is My Exodus),”
with the Tri-City Singers
and featuring Le’Andria
Johnson. Lawrence last led
with solo track “The Gift”
for a week in November
- The Tri-City Singers
also collaborated on his first
three No. 1s: “The Blessing
of Abraham,” which reigned
for 18 weeks in 2006;
“Encourage Yourself” (13
weeks, 2007); and “Back II
Eden” (one week, 2009;
billed as Lawrence & Co.)
Lawrence ties James
Fortune & FIYA for third
place among acts with the
most Gospel Airplay No. 1s.
Kirk Franklin and Ta me l a
Mann share the lead with
six each.
On the airplay-,
streaming- and sales-fueled
Hot Gospel Songs chart,
where “Deliver” has ranked
at its No. 2 high for 10
weeks running, Franklin’s
“Love Theory” occupies the
penthouse for a 27th week
(as “Deliver” dethrones it
on Gospel Airplay after a
15-week reign). “Theory” is
the fifth No. 1 to dominate
for over six months in
the 14-year history of Hot
Gospel Songs, trailing
only Marvin Sapp’s
“Never Would Have Made
It” (46 weeks starting in
August 2007), Franklin’s
“Wanna Be Happy?”
(45 weeks, September
2015), Koryn Hawthorne’s
“Won’t He Do It” (41 weeks,
March 2018) and Fortune &
FIYA’s “I Trust You” (29
weeks, August 2008).
