God’s Not Dead, the 2011 Inpop recording from GRAMMY-nominated Newsboys, has been certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The band’s sixth-career Gold album was produced by Seth Mosley and features the title track to the movie of the same name. The song garnered an RIAA Gold single certification earlier this year, topped the CHR chart for seven consecutive weeks and inspired the Pure Flix film God’s Not Dead. The album also features the Newsboys’ spin on favorites such as “Your Love Never Fails,” “Forever Reign” and “Mighty to Save.” “God’s Not Dead is a project that helped launch a movement, and Inpop Records is honored to have released this landmark recording,” said Mark Lusk, president, Inpop Records. “We congratulate the Newsboys and celebrate a milestone of utmost significance in the landscape of today’s music industry.” Newsboys’ latest recording and debut collection of hymns, Hallelujah for the Cross, released last month and features the group’s take on nine classics and one new selection. |
