Battle Of The Choirs Posted on 02-16-2004

:!: Batte Of The Choirs eveybody :!: Forget battle of the bands, it's the battle of the voices. Lift Every Voice and Sing yall. As a marauder of Central State University, I am a proud member of the Central State University Chorus- the best choir in the land. This small university in Wilberfoce, Ohio is taking over. Under the direction of Mr. William Caldwell, the Central State University Chorus is by far the best University Choir. Grammy nominated, internationally acclaimed, and trend setting. This Choir sings with major ochestras and inportant government functions. If you think your choir can compete, bring it on. I would like to hear your comments. FOR GOD, FOR CENTRAL, FOR STATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

DEAR EMANUEL AND COMPANY; THIS IS THE ANOINTED TENOR THAT SINGS IN THE VSUGC. THATS JUST A USERNAME FOR ME, BUT WE ARE ALL ANOINTED IN THE GOSPEL CHOIR HERE. I HAVE COME AS A LIASON TO LET YOU KNOW THAT OUR PRAISE IS FOR REAL. AND FOR YOU TO COME UP HERE AND EXPLOIT OUR CHOIR LIKE THIS WAS NOT RIGHT. WHAT KIND OF CHRISTIAN ARE U TO COME UP HERE AND TALK ABOUT GOD'S ANOINTING. AND IF U DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT I AM SAYING. OUR CHOIR IS A PART OF GOD'S ANOINTING. THE BIBLE SAYS TOUCH NOT MY ANOINTING. U NEED TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT WHAT YOU SAY ABOUT OUR CHOIR AND ABOUT GOD'S CHOSEN VESSELS. BECAUSE YOU COULD BE DAMNING YOURSELF. AND FURTHER MORE, FOR YOU TO TALK ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE WE HAD AT MT.OLIVE, NOT MT. OLIVET, (I AM GONNA NEED FOR YOU TO KNOW WHAT CHURCH YOU WERE AT), NOW BACK TO MY ORIGINAL STATEMENT. IF YOU WERE SO CALLED PRAISING GOD AND YOU ARE SO REAL, THEN YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN PRAISING GOD WITH THE REST OF THE PEOPLE IN THE CHURCH AND NOT TALKIN ABOUT THE WORKS OF GOD. WE CAME AS MINISTERS, NOT PERFORMERS. WE DID WHAT GOD WOULD HAVE HAD US TO DO, AND THAT IS WHAT WAS DONE. SO, AS FAR AS OUR CONCERT BEING CUT SHORT AT THE END, THAT WAS ALL GOD'S DOING. SO, IT SEEMS TO ME YOU WERE THE ONLY ONE WORRIED ABOUT THE CHOIR, WORRIED ABOUT HOW MANY PEOPLE WE HAD THERE, WORRIED ABOUT WHETHER WE HAD PERFECT PITCH AND SO ON. BUT, ENOUGH OF CRACKING YOUR YOUR FACE. JUST KNOW THAT THE ANOINTING IS IN OUR CHOIR AND WE ARE HERE TO STAY, SO GET USED TO SEEING US, BECAUSE YOU WILL SOON SEE US MINISTERING TO THE PEOPLE ON NATIONAL TELEVISION. AND THANX TO YOUR INVITATION, WE WILL BE THERE ON ONE THURSDAY MORNING TO YOUR SERVICE. NOT TO CRITICIZE YOUR CHOIR BUT TO HELP LIFT UP THE NAME OF JESUS WITH YOU ALL. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, WE ARE THE AWARD WINNING GOSPEL CHOIR IN THE NATION. WE WENT TO THE BLACK MUSIC CAUCUS IN 2003 AND WE BROUGHT HOME 11 OUT OF 13 CATEGORIES AGAINST OTHER WORLD WIDE KNOWN CHOIRS. GOD BLESSED US WITH THAT, WE WORKED HARD AND DESERVED EVERY BIT OF RECOGNITION THAT WE RECEIVED. WHEN YOU SAW US AT MT.OLIVE LAST NIGHT, THAT WAS JUST A PORTION OF OUR CHOIR, IT WAS ONLY MAYBE LIKE 55 OF US THERE. WE HAVE OVER A 100 PEOPLE IN THE CHOIR AND YOU KNOW THAT FOR YOURSELF. SO, IF WE WERE NOT TO YOUR LIKING ON LAST NIGHT, THEN WE DONT CARE, BECAUSE WE DIDNT COME THERE FOR YOU, WE CAME THERE TO MINISTER AND SHARE WITH OTHERS WHAT GOD GAVE TO US. SO, I HOPE THAT YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY, AND MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND COMPANY........

Man, Knowledge you are funny. I couldn't stop laughing after I read your messages. First of all I'm not hating on you. Do what you do, but don't slander an instutution that has been very good to alot of accoplished individuals over the past 100 and so years. If you don't like Central, just leave and find another school that fits your standards. We have enough ploblems with the white people trying to close our black institutions. For example, MORRIS BROWN. I don't know what your major is, but I can't speak on all the teachers in other departments. What I do know is that our music department is one of the top undergrad in this area. OSU has alot more money thanus, and we are still blowin them out of the water. This school is historical and a developer of history makers. That's the problem with black people now, we all want a handout. We want the school and everybody to do things for us. Now again, I am going to ask you what you do for the school. There are those who complain and there are those who acually make a difference. Step up to the plate. This is your gand chance to do something. If you are not going to do anything, then stop complaining. Just leave the school, don't slander the name. Use some of that"KNOWLEDGE" and show some respect and maturity. You don't have to like the school, just repect it and it's name while you are a student. Thank you.............

:lol: okay first and foremost lets become mature college students. When dealing with the internet..rule #1 (never assume anything...because when you assume you make a complete **** out of yourself.) rule#2 (please keep in mind that this is the internet, and shouting out names is very elementary award winning choirs know that!!!) Allow me to say that I had to take a coffee break reading those long and sorry posts the both of you left. I mean really can we accept constructive criticisim...anyway let's not turn this into the "whose anointed battle" because I have more respect for my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The one thing you "award winning" people dont want to do is to question ones's Christianity because they tell the truth... and face it guys the truth hurts!!!! But im not going to repeat myself or take back what was said....YOU KNOW YOU WERE A MESS...DONT PUT GOD IN THAT!!! next...being that I am the Vice President of the legendary Virginia Union University Choir...it's only right to inform you that we do have a gospel choir..and no we do not compete..(Jesus is bigger than that). And I was not compairing choirs...but as a "MAN" of God I know him (God) , and I also know when I see God, and he didn't come through your voices. So turn off entertainment and turn on Annointing like i said. This is a shout out to Annointed Tenor...and VSUGC#1 aka Marvell, and Chad!!! You two be blessed, and remember VUU (it's a good thing!!!) *see ya at CIAA.....

Dear: VSUGC I am assuming that I am the "company" you spoke of in your address to one of our fellow "Panthers." Based on your performance, I think that it can be assumed that we all are Christians who know The Word. If so than we know that the bible says that we are not to argue the word of God and use his words in vain. I would appreciate if you would not make markery of God's word by using it to satirize someone and there christianity. Mixing God's word with sarcasim is not the way his gospel should be used. We were all impressed by your semantics, but lets be true, TO GOD. You all did a fine job on Sunday, it could have very well been a rough day for you, thats fine. But lets represent God, if we are to to sing praises to him. God made man in his image, his image. If the way we act or the vibes we give off are not of God than lets do some self searching before we want to get on the web and bash an individual for what he has said, and thing try to bring God and his word into it. Based on what i saw ( not your performance), I'm sure YOU have heard worst.

Sometimes we forget who we're singing for. Sometimes people forget that a gospel choir is not for entertainment, but for ministry. I know that my choir has fallen short a time or twoand the Lord has came and put us all back in our places. That's the only one who can.

YOUR LITTLE COMMENT WAS CUTE!!!!! I VERY MUCH ENJOYED IT,AND YOU CALL YOURSELF A MAN!!! PLEASE LETS JUST BE REAL, WE KNOW WHAT YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS ARE ALL ABOUT, AND YOU ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING SMART TO SAY ABOUT VIRGINIA STATE UNIVERSITY, WHICH IS COOL, BECAUSE THATS YOUR OPINION. BUT LIKE I SAID AT FIRST WE ARE ANOINTED, AND IT SEEMS AS IF YOU WERE THERE FOR A COMPLETE DIFFERENT REASON!!! WHICH WAS NOT EVEN TO COME AND PRAISE GOD, BUT TO JUDGE, AND WHAT KIND OF CHRISTIAN IS THAT. AS FOR VSUGC, WE ARE GETTING READY TO GO TO NEW YORK,AND SPREAD THE GOSPEL, WHICH THAT IS SOMETHING THAT SATAN DOES NOT WANT. SO I GUESS THAT IS WHY SATAN WAS IN YOUR SPIRIT, WHEN YOU WROTE CRUEL THINGS ABOUT THE VIRGINIA STATE UNIVERSITY GOSPEL CHOIR. NOW LET'S GO BACK TO SUNDAY, YOU CAME LATE, AND YOU DIDN'T EVEN GET A GOOD SEAT, I GUESS THAT'S WHY GOD CHOSE TO PUT YOU IN THE BACK, BECAUSE I HAD A BAD VIBE FROM YOU AND YOUR COMPANY WHEN I SAW YOU ALL THERE ANYWAY, BUT DEALING WITH THAT I AM A CHRISTIAN I SPOKE TO YOU, BECAUSE JUST LIKE I AM A CHILD OF GOD, SO I HAVE TO LOVE YOU,AND WHEN I SEE YOU I WILL CONTINUE TO SPEAK TO YOU. AS FOR THE "ABOMINATION" YES WE DO GO THROUGH THINGS IN LIFE,AND ONCE WE CRY OUT TO GOD,AND SURRENDER TO GOD THEN WE WILL BE DELIVERED FROM IT CAUSE WE GO THROUGH THINGS IN LIFE AND SOMETIMES WE DONT KNOW WHY, BUT ONCE WE COME OUT OF CERTAIN THINGS, THERE IS A STRONGER ANOINTING OVER OUR LIVES IN WHICH THAT IS SOMETHING THAT GOD HAS BLESSED ME WITH, CAUSE ITS THINGS THAT I USED TO DO, THAT I DONT DO ANYMORE. BUT WHEN IS VUU NEXT PERFORMANCE SO THAT I CAN COME HERE YOU ALL. BUT I BASICALLY KNEW THAT WHEN I SAW YOUR CREW, IKNEW WHAT WAS GOING TO BE SAID ABOUT US,CAUSE YOU DONT LIKE US ANYWAY. BUT THE CHURCH WAS FILLED WITH THE HOLY GHOST,AND THE PASTOR OF THE CHURCH KNEW THAT WE WERE GOOD,AND I AM PRETTY SURE THAT IF WE WERE FAKING, THEY WOULD HAVE TOLD US TO STOP AND GET OUT OF THERE CHURCH, AND YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS CAME WITH THE WRONG MIND SET ANYWAY. AS LONG AS WE GOT OUR COMPLIMENTS AND A BLESSING FROM GOD, THEN WE ARE FINE. WHO CARES WHAT YOU THINK OF US, BECAUSE LIKE I SAID IN THE FIRST NOTE....GOD HAS OUR BACKS!!!!! YOU SAID 11:00 ON THURSDAY RIGHT, I WILL BE THERE CAUSE I HAVE NO CLASSES ON THURSDAY.

I guess I'm a part of the so-called "crew", because I was there also. I thought this discussion was over, but I assume someone's feelings were hurt. I had every intention of coming to hear and bear witness of the goodness of God. Whether that was done or not, I am not one to judge. who's line is it anyway? lol I know the both of you ( not that well) But, I genuinely like you two. So, I don't see why all the animosity is being generated, nor do I want to be a part of it. When you address one person, address that one person...leave what you may call a "clique" or "crew" out of it. I have nothing more to say concerning this topic, because the real christians have already made some valid points. If there is more to this post....then, make another thread...concerning people...etc. Secondly, we are college students, some of us are on the true verge to becoming responsible, caring, and successful adults...let's not result to ignorance like this again. It's rathe ridiculous. Be Blessed and May all of your relationships with the Lord shine through your works. For we know that on that great day, some of us will be caught up....others will be left here in eternal damnation. Let's study to show oursleves approved and continue to lift up the mighty name of Jesus through song. HOTEP!
