Classically gospel, the uplifting single solidifies her position in the gospel world and is brimming with emotion and inspiration.
Coko smooth style creates a pop-oriented sound that is equal parts Gospel and R&B. Her sophistication and subdued soulfulness shines through on the stellar "Rescue Me" and on the big ballad title track "The Winner In Me."
Coko includes several of her friends to join her on the project including fellow songstress Kelly Price, along with whom she revives their R&B roots with the groove-infused "Oh Mary," a song with an important message for young women today. Other highlights include the upbeat Israel Houghton duet "Joy Of The Lord," and the hip-hop soul collaboration with Canton Jones on the sensational "Made a Way."
From its Urban inspirational, contemporary pop tracks and worship ballads, The Winner In Me, is decidedly Gospel. Its universal appeal is evidence of Coko's ability to offer diversity and range.
