Questions, Questions, Questions…

I usually try to answer a question in this article, but this month I would like to ask the questions and let you answer them. Feel free to answer as many or as few of them as you like. You can post your answer in the comments for the public to view. If you would prefer to keep your answers private, feel free to email them to me. My email address issteve@squareonestudio.com .

1. Is the health of gospel music deteriorating or is it stronger than ever?
2. Does a new independent artist have a better chance at succeeding today than 20 years ago?
3. Are artists making better records today than 20 or 30 years ago? Why?
4. Do you feel the southern gospel market is oversaturated?
5. How do you perceive small vanity labels (labels that are a “label” in name but lack resources for marketing, distribution, etc.)?
6. Which artist, past or present, stands out in your mind as an innovator?
7. How do you feel about secular artists recording Christian music and then marketing the product to the southern gospel audience?
8. What do you hope is next for the genre as a entity?

That is all of the questions I have for now. Thank you so much for participating.
