About Me

My name is Rickey L. Gillispie Jr. I'm a songwriter, musician, and producer. I have been blessed with the ability to play the bass guitar, drums, and piano. I am very thankful to God for the opportunities I've had to play for a few top artists within the gospel music industry such as; Kim Burrell, Karen Clark-Sheard, Nikki Ross, Tramaine Hawkins, LaShaun Pace-Rhodes, and Maurette Brown-Clark. With God's help, it is my desire to be able to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ on a national level by producing music that will reach the masses. I receive much inspiration from artists such as Prince, EWF, Wayman Tisdale, Timbaland, Asaph Ward, and Steven Ford to name a few.I am very appreciative for what I have accomplished to date. And I anticipate the more that God has in store for me in the near future. To visit my music page, clickI am a real dude that loves to have fun and loves GOD with everything that I got u know.I AM A CHRISTIAN*When I say..."I'm a Christian" I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin."I'm whispering "I was lost." Now I'm found and forgiven.When I say..."I'm a Christian" I don't speak of this with pride.I'm confessing that I stumble and need CHRIST to be my guide.When I say..."I'm a Christian" I'm not trying to be strong.I'm professing that I'm weak and need HIS strength to carry onWhen I say..."I'm a Christian" I'm not bragging of success.I'm admitting I have failed and need GOD to clean my mess.When I say..."I'm a Christian" I'm not claiming to be perfect,My flaws are far too visible but, God believes I am worth it.When I say..."I'm a Christian" I have my share of heartachesSo I call upon HIS name.When I say..."I'm a Christian"I'm not holier than thou,I'm just a simple sinner who received GOD'S good grace, somehow.I AM A CHRISTIAN~ by Maya Angelou Get your own
