a platinum-selling African American musician who blended gospel,

leader of contemporary gospel choirs such as Kirk Franklin & the
Family, Kirk Franklin's Nu Nation, God's Property. and Kirk Franklin

A native of Fort Worth, Texas, he was raised by
his aunt, Gertrude Franklin, after being abandoned by his teenaged
parents. He developed a talent for music early, playing the piano
at age four and becoming music director of his church at age eleven.
After getting kicked out of school in his teenaged years, having
a girlfriend become pregnant, and after a friend was shot to death
he returned to the church. After leading the DFW Mass Choir at
the 1990 Gospel Music Workshop of America Convention, he organized "The
Family", a seventeen-voice choir, in 1992 and began his recording
career.
He has integrated hip hop styles with gospel themes in albums
such as The Nu Nation Project and God's Property, which achieved
success on the Billboard Pop Album, R&B and gospel charts.
Franklin has collaborated with the biggest names in gospel music,
including Tonex, Donnie McClurkin, Richard Smallwood, Crystal
