Kirk has never hid behind his celebrity status but has remained connected to his audience through his music and frank discussions of life issues. Kirk has always been transparent about being abandoned by his parents, adopted at the age of four, and his humble beginnings. Many believe the secret to his continued success is rooted in his artistic genius of being innovative, relevant and authentic about his faith. Working with such artists as Bono, Stevie Wonder, the late Whitney Houston, Lacrae, Kanye West and Chance the Rapper, the genius fusion of a message hope and hip-hop beats have made him a mainstay atop Billboard charts for more than 20 years.

In 1993 Kirk revolutionized Gospel Music and bridged the gap between the faith community and mainstream Urban Music culture. He’s known as an incomparable artist, speaker, a New York Times best selling author, businessman and humanitarian, and after more than 20 years as the top selling artist of inspirational music, multiple Grammy award winner, Kirk Franklin, shows no signs of slowing down.
