(October 23, 2020) - "The Lord started speaking to me. That's how ‘Truth' came to me," said Charles Martin, singer/songwriter/actor and member of Deitrick Haddon's Stellar Award winning group Voices of Unity (Tyscot Records), about his new single "Truth." "It's important to have private time with the Lord. He said, ‘You need to be consistent.' So I been consistent in what he want me to do."

Martin has a long career as a vocalist for Voices of Unity and a sought after background singer whose clients have included Fred Hammond and Deitrick Haddon.
Charles said God told him to listen to certain people and do certain things. He did not understand at the time, but he was obedient or as he says "consistent."

"I didn't know I would get divorced or the Pastor of my church would die," Charles pointed out. "It (Listening to God) helped prepare me. In my flesh, I can do so much."

So Charles Martin gives up the "Truth" in his new single.

"I took time away from recording, still doing engagements and Worship & Praise. I had personal issues," he said about the gap between his 2010 solo debut "Mary's Son" and this single "Truth." "Mary's Son" garnered him a Gospel Blue Mic Award for "Male Artist of the Year." The single "Truth" is produced by Rachard ‘Chardyroc' Williams.

"We worked together on my last album. I'm a little older than him. We first met in our management's office. He said, ‘I've followed your career for many years.'...and he said how my music changed him. He told me how he listened to ‘Chain Breaker' (Voices of Unity) and it changed his life'," Charles said about the single's producer. "I do have a bigger project. Another single is coming out at the top of the year and shortly after - the project." www.youtube.com/charlesmartinmusic
