Reflecting on the past four decades, founder Hines says, “To quote the gospel song, ‘How I Got Over,’ my soul looks back and wonders…I know it’s by the grace of God that Sounds Of Blackness has
thrived, and it’s incomprehensible to me that as an original member, it’s been forty years.”
Now proud to be associated with Malaco Music Group, whose commitment to black music in its many
forms also stretches back over decades, Sounds Of Blackness present a self-titled album that is a fit for the challenging times, while offering energy, optimism, and compassion, while, as always, giving praise. “This ranks among our best work,” says Hines proudly. “We’re incredibly excited about it.

Lyrically, musically and thematically, it’s on time and it embodies the spirit of togetherness, healing,Ubuntu and inspiration that is at the heart of who we are."

It is true that there are so many people who admire Gary Hines for being who he is. I am glad to know that I was able to to know him and his life story because I read a blog about him. When I was still a college student, my assignmentmasters tasked me to make some research about him, which is something that I did! That is the reason why I am familiar with who is Gary Hines and why he serves as an inspiration for me! I am indeed looking forward to discover more stuff about him!
