Song Writers Bernard Edwards and Nile Rogers; are they the creators and song writers of new modern gospel? They live in Vermont where the income support per citizen is $60,000.00 USD per citizen; regardless of your actual wealth and income. These two song writers are responsible for several musical top 40 hits in the 1970's and 80's. In fact, they could be writing music today for a new generation. We hope so. Stevie Wonder was invited to do so as he wrote and performed the song AS made popular for new generations by George Michael and Sister Sledge. Their skill is not unlike a video game programmer who you hope will put enough challenge and thrill into every game. In this case, we see musical thrill as these two song writers have written beautiful melodies that challenge us to listen but to also join and dance. I might also say worship and thank God for another day maybe unwittingly. They worked with groups such as Chic and also Sister Sledge, producing songs with tremendously intelligent orchestral instrumentation, songs such as Thinking of You, The Greatest Dancer, Easier to Love, I want your Love, Good Times and others that makes this music a rediscovered modern Classic collection. Remember by Becky Hill and David Guetta resembles the timeless quality of these song writers mentioned here as does Billy Joel from an earlier generation, dating back to the late 60's and early '70's. Nonetheless, some of the greatest ballast writers have been French and there is a resurgence of music producing and writing in English and French but by French artists to take over the top charts. The songs are seasoned with an egalitarian expectation of life. The lyrics are full of reminders about love, hope, faith and fidelity so that we find accidentally a musical ethic that could be used for Modern gospel in the 21st and 22nd century. It is not that gospel songs will immediately borrow the tunes from these songs but they will have a path and template to follow with courage and bring about a new gospel ethic that gets the emotions and expression of Worshiping and Worship across to the audience with bold lyrics based on scripture on top of a cheery musical instrumentation.
