Marvin Sapp - Thirsty

• Gospel Music: For Thirsty, Sapp teamed up with some of the industry's most promising up-and-coming producers. Aaron Lindsey (Israel & New Breed, Martha Munizzi), the multi-talented Myron Butler and members of his 2007 Stellar Award-winning choir, Levi, along with members of 2007 Grammy Award-winning New Breed all joined forces in what is arguably the most innovative mix of talent the industry has seen in years.

• Billboard Gospel chart's #1: Marvin Sapp's Thirsty is what may be the best of his seven albums, with a record-breaking first week of sales and hitting the Billboard Gospel chart's #1 spot.

The DVD for this also had an outstanding first week of sales, opening at #2 on the Christian Soundscan Music Video Chart. "Thirsty" is a spiritual booster when your life is flat and uninspiring.

• AP Says: Associated Press reports Marvin as, "vibrates like he's wringing every drop of emotion from his spirit." "Thirsty" is more worship than praise, slower than fast and more personal than before.

• Marvin Says: He likens his experience to David running from Absalom in the Psalms. "I go to a very desolate place in my existence and think about things that most people don't think about and when I get there--that's where I find sanctuary. When you go to a place where you can't depend on anybody around you then and only then can you call on God and when God shows up, where ever you are becomes your sanctuary."

• Playing Time Approximate Running Time: 90 Minutes. The DVD was recorded LIVE before a capacity crowd. It will also include a special behind the scenes montage.
