Praise This (2023)
Praise This centres on Sam (five-time Grammy nominee Chloe Bailey from Grown-ish), a talented aspiring singer who is forced to join her cousin’s struggling, underdog praise team in the lead-up to the national championships.
From the producers of Girls Trip, Think Like a Man and They Cloned Tyrone, Praise This was up for three 2024 Black Reel awards, including Outstanding TV Movie and Outstanding Musical Score, and was nominated for Best Song – Onscreen Performance at last year’s Hollywood Music In Media Awards (for Chloe Bailey, Loren Lott and Grammy-nominated gospel singer Jekalyn Carr).
Black Reel nominee Tina Gordon (Little, What Men Want) directs and co-writes.
