There is certainly nothing ordinary about Commissioned. As pioneers in contemporary gospel music, and way ahead of their time, the 6-man Detroit-based group soared high on Ordinary Just Won't Do. First released in 1989, the album reached #4 on Billboard. Propelled by strong song-writing, gloriously sweet harmonic jams and a street-edge, Commissioned simply nailed it for thousands upon thousands of youth across the country. With the vocals of Fred Hammond, Keith Staten, Karl Reid and Mitchell Jones paving the way and supported by instrumental genius of Michael Brooks and Michael Williams, the group spread the gospel with a sound that remains unparalleled.
