“It’s an honor to be the first to receive “The Albertina Walker Female Vocalist of the Year Award,” Clark Sheard rejoiced. “She was one of the first along with that famous group, to pave the way for artists like my sisters and myself, and we are eternally grateful for her hard work which inspires me to keep going!”
“He Knows” is a favorite on both gospel and urban radio. The hypnotic, urban-flavored ballad was written by Kendall Hunter, J Moss (Clark Sheard’s cousin), And Paul Allen. The song was produce by PAJAM (Paul Allen & JMoss). The video was produced by Tia Smith (Talented Sol Productions) and directed by Bobby Yan.
