Greetings,

Letron Brantley (CEO & Founder of GospelSkillz.com & HotJazzChops.com)A lot has been going on with us at GospelSkillz.com.  We are making moves to the next level of excellence and I just want to thank you for your support.  Many of you have written in expressing your desires for knowledge and insight to reaching your musical goals.  In a nutshell, the formula is simple.

 

Positive Attitude (Faith)
+
Consistency (Discipline)
---------------------------
= Success (Favor)



 

This forumula could relate to anything you are involved with, but especially for musicians, your attitude plays a big part in whether you meet your goals or not.  I was in church this past Sunday and the guest minister said that the reason many of us can't achieve the things we want to achieve, is because we have a damaging mentality.  He used an example of when a Mercedes dealership owner approached him and asked him if he liked any of the cars on his lot.  The minister said "Yes, but I can't afford any of them."  The dealer then said, "I didn't ask you if you could afford it, I asked if you liked any of them."  Long story short, the minister drove off the lot in the Mercedes of his choice.  If you don't speak musical excellence into your life EVERYDAY and walk in that, you are setting yourself up for failure.  God's favor is laid up for us, if we believe it.  Remember Hebrews 11:1 "...faith is the sub stance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."  Opportunities or FAVOR comes to those who exercise FAITH and walk in the blessings of God even before they receive them.  If you practice in a spirit of musicial excellence, you will know exactly what to do with the FAVOR because you have been acting in it all along.  Discipline is also very important to reaching your goal.  Discipline is a part of musical excellence.  You have to get to the point where you are convicted for your inconsistency.  This conviction drives you to get on the ball so you can continue what you started in God.  Also before you practice, ask God to touch your mind and your hands so that you can get the most out of your preparation time.
 
Be Blessed,

Letron Interviews Michael Ross

I had the awesome priviledge of interviewing one of the hardest working musicians on this side of the country, Michael Ross.  Mike has accompanied and shared platforms with the late Dr. Mattie Moss Clark, the late Reverend James Moore, Bennie Cummings and the late Maestro Thomas A. Whitfield, The Clark Sisters, Vickie Winans, Shirley Caesar, Commissioned, Pastor John P. Kee, Donald Lawrence, Hezekiah Walker, Darius from Hootie & The Blowfish, BeBe Winans, Byron Cage, and others too numerous to mention. Mike has a unique perspective on musicianship in the Kingdom of God that is truley insightful.  Believe me, you will be hearing a lot more from him in the future.  We touch on a couple of subjects in this video.  Check it out.
