Every track on the deluxe LP draws inspiration from the album’s predecessor, ‘Kingdom Book One’ (released 6.17), which was recorded in a Florida prison yard, aiming to raise awareness around the plight of mass incarceration. The artists were deeply impacted by their experience at the facility and felt a new sense of being that empowered them to explore new creative sounds and worship – all of which are displayed in the music on ‘Kingdom Book One Deluxe.’ 

"These songs are a reflection of our work in the prison” says co-founder & CEO of Maverick City Tony Brown. “Being on tour and seeing the response of 10,000+ people each night has truly been such an inspirational experience.”

2022 is the year of Maverick City Music. Following the group’s recent GRAMMY win and historic mainstage performance, the record-breaking collective has been on a magnificent rise. Since then, they’ve performed mainstage at the BET Awards, and also alongside Diddy and Faith Evans, joined NPR’s Tiny Desk, and The View. Earlier this month, they appeared on the TODAY Show for a performance and interview.

Last week, Maverick City Music x Kirk Franklin took over Fox & Friends’ All-American Summer Concert Series. Watch it HERE.

Kingdom Book One’ (released 6.17) features Maverick City Music and Franklin recording alongside more than ninety-percent of the residents at Everglades Correctional Institution in Miami, FL, taking the idea of “prison performance” to another level. Joined by men from every walk-of-life – different gangs, races and backgrounds – this whole project evolved from an unfiltered message of love and universal acceptance and became a passionate, powerful movement that embodies the collective’s core beliefs of inspiring and helping others. 

Maverick City Music x Franklin are currently embarked on a massive coast-to-coast arena tour, breaking records in ticket sales per night and consistently landing in the Top 10 of all tours on Pollstar. On Sunday, July 24, they will be livestreaming their Crypto.com Arena show for one-night only in a special partnership with YouTube.
