The “Go-To” Church Sunday Series | Week 7: Sunshine
Church Chizzle hits us with a new track and video, and this one is straight from the heart. “Sunshine” isn’t exactly what the title suggests. It represents “freedom” or the lack there of due to being incarcerated. Unfortunately for Church and many others, Sunshine is something that wasn’t fully appreciated until it was taken away. Now looking to put his past behind him, and move forward in his career, Church relays his feelings for the system though through his creative and diverse lyrical abilities. These feeling can be felt, heard, and seen in this video. Freedom is a must.
Video Director: Darren “D-Lo” Lopes / @DdashLO Produced by: BoWes Music Productions Recorded: BoWes Music Productions Mixed & Mastered: Sound Resolve
