Aaron Cole delivers a powerful collaboration “usher in the spirit again” with Jonathan McReynolds and Tenroc, out now. The highly anticipated remix brings together Aaron Cole’s signature lyricism, Jonathan McReynolds’ soulful vocals and Tenroc’s dynamic energy, amplifying a creative blend that bridges hip-hop, gospel, and R&B melodies.
Cole sparked a viral response with his initial clip, generating millions of views, video stitches, verse challenges, likes and comments from fans and fellow artists across genres, followed with the song and music video for “usher in the spirit” with Tenroc. Giving their own spin and verses, they created an unforgettable fusion of two beloved classics, the song “Revelation 19:1” and the 90’s melodic hooks in Usher’s “You Make Me Wanna…”. The “usher in the spirit again” remix elevates a message of hope and strength, with the fresh flows of the vocal collaboration by Cole, McReynolds, and Tenroc. The three hitmakers got together in New York, with production in the studio by Tenroc.
“When the original clip started blowing up, I knew this was a powerful reminder of how God’s presence and music continue to inspire us and can change things in new and greater ways,” says Aaron Cole. “No matter what we all may be facing, God’s grace and love is always there for us. He renews our spirits fresh every day.”
