1,300 inmates at a Miami prison contributed to kirkfranklin and MavCityMusic's new album. The singer and collective discussed the experience on our Twitch channel. ⬇️
— and what it was like recording it in a Miami prison.
The experience was especially personal for Maverick City Music co-founder Tony Brown, who would visit his mother behind bars in Staten Island as a kid. “One of my first memories of being in New York was visiting my mother when I was nine years old,” Brown said. “Me and the guys [in Maverick] have been impacted by mass incarceration and the issues concerning that for a long time, so this has been an important project for us.
It’s also an important project for Franklin. When he and Brown went to the Everglades Correctional Institution to record, they were serenaded by inmates singing Franklin’s music as they walked past cells from the chapel to the prison yard. “Walking past these brothers who were singing my songs on the way to the performance was really, really humbling,” he explained.
