Too Opinionated Interview: Keith Mitchell


Listen Later

Today on Too Opinionated, we sit down with singer Keith Mitchell to talk about "He's Alive," his rousing, praise-filled gospel fired soul debut single as a solo artist.

Keith is finding his own voice as a solo artist and fully embracing his musical destiny after years of success recording and touring as part of the 80's-90's legendary, Grammy-Nominated R&B vocal group After 7. Founded in 1987 by Melvin and Kevon Edmonds, and long-time friend Keith Mitchell, the trio was initially produced by mega hit-makers Babyface (the Edmonds' younger brother) L.A. Reid, and Daryl Simmons in the group's self-titled 1989 debut album which spawned the Billboard #1 R&B (and Hot 100 Top Ten) hits "Ready or Not" and "Can't Stop." They released two more albums (including the platinum-selling Takin' My Time) over the next decade before their initial split.

Reforming in the late 2000s, After 7 resumed touring with Melvin's son Jason replacing him. Melvin rejoined them for their 2015 comeback single with the Top 10 AC hit "I Want You," and their fourth album Timeless. With a few more personnel changes in the wake of Melvin's 2019 passing, After 7 released its fifth album Unfinished Business in 2021. Coinciding with the drop of "He's Alive," Mitchell officially left the group in January.

A powerful showcase for Keith's ultra-infectious vocal, rap and songwriting talents, "He's Alive" – the lead single from his upcoming debut album Food for Your Life - is an overflowing expression of the singer's great joy over the living presence of God in his life.
