Mr. Diamond Redd, producer, presents “A New Flavor” featuring Essie Berry — widow of Fred “Rerun” Berry from the 1970s hit sitcom What’s Happening! — bringing a fresh southern gospel vibe. Diamond Redd’s music is rooted in the truth of the Almighty and the power of prayer, faith, and reflection on how far He has brought us. It’s more than just music — it’s a message, a ministry, and a movement designed to open hearts and minds. Listen closely and you’ll hear stories of survival, redemption, and divine transformation. Each track takes you on a journey of love and heartbreak, gratitude and growth, power and wisdom — showing how the Almighty can turn pain into purpose. This is the shared testimony of Essie Berry and Diamond Redd, two souls refined by trials and lifted by grace, who have moved from years of turmoil and emotional abuse to a place of peace and strength. Their music is their testimony, their rhythm is their redemption. Diamond Redd invites you to the place where truth meets the beat, and every lyric reflects God’s power. Essie Berry steps forward with a soulful southern gospel groove, sharing her story of truth, healing, and divine restoration after over a decade of malicious harassment. She gives all glory to God for bringing her through, lifting her up, and restoring her life piece by piece. This extended southern gospel production shows how the Almighty can turn pain into purpose, trials into triumph, and chaos into clarity. “Direct Blessings” calls listeners to stand strong, stay focused on God, and trust His timing through any storm. Now, Essie Berry and her dedicated bodyguard, Mr. Diamond Redd have joined forces to bring a bold, fresh, and inspiring new style to the gospel world.
