  • U betta sang joann

  • I didn't think Rosario's dress was revealing at all. She was equal to the presenter. The tribute was fantastic though.

  • Rosario needs a jacket for that revealing dress! Modest, saved women should not dress in a way that is revealing! Modest is the way!

  • ... if it wasn't for Christ Jesus Who broke down the barriers... to God be the Glory!

  • Without people like Fred, Andre, Kirk, Pastor Kee, breaking down barriers I have no idea where gospel music would be. I thank God for them and many more.

  • Isaac Caree is insane

  • WoW what a word from Fred Hammond(to the ones that like me a seed need water to grow and the ones that didnt really care for me a seed need dirt to grow) when you die to yourself and let God have control He will Give you what to say without leaving critics and the media nothing to make a mess out of !!!!!!!!!!!

  • is this bethesda's Joann, Darius' aunt?

  • Joann's voice is silk literally

  • Those Musicians are terrible!!!!

  • haterz......yea you MrAaronSda...

  • only Christ should be honoured.... love his music but now it's more about the worshipper then the person his designed to worship

  • Wow!!! I seriously doubt that God cares about how they sang a tribute to Fred. I'm more inclined to think that God is more concerned with Fred being obedient to Him and putting in song what He (God) gave him to write. C'mon People, lets use our energies to thank God for the work that the saints are doing and less on finding faults in each other.

  • "Lord Jesus Help" me to figure out why Commissioned wasnt' mentioned.

  • It would have been great to have the members of COMMISSIONED to be there to sing those songs!! I'm not mad or nothing but I think it would have been dope for that to happen! I'M A COMISSIONED fan still today and I love Fred too!!

  • Say bless!

  • That's how they do. It's all about them. They talk about God, but they use God as a prop for their egos.

  • @everybody- you can love Fred and his music like I do, but you cannot overlook the over site. If the award producers missed it than he should have said something....period. Stop making excuses! Geez

  • Maybe Commissoned was to busy that day to come... we don't because we weren't there so we need to stop always having something to say and just enjoy the video! #CHURCHFOLK! #ALWAYSCOMPLAININGBOUTSOMETHIN­G!

  • Guys..... Television time is limited and the producers are not always knowledgeable of the history of an artist, I'm sure it was an oversight because the FIRST song that they performed was by Commissioned!!

  • c-o-m-m-i-s-s-i-o-n-e-d? Seriously it dont fell complete with out it

  • They seem to have no passion for what they are singing. . .Where is the Selah ( or moment to consider the words that are being sung)?. . It's disappointing to watch people perform and not worship or Praise the only true GOD. . . .Fred, go ahead and Worship in Spirit and in truth

  • If you find another lyricist that has been used by God on a level such as Fred's I want to hear his music. To God be the glory for MY man...my tears tell my story. Fred thanks for allowing God to be there with me.

  • Fred, John and smokie are my favorites but....i agree??...I hope it was an oversight...not mentioning COMMISSION....and not intentional....if not it really makes you wonder????

  • With all due respect to a legend in gospel music; How could he stand there and not thank the members and the fans of Commissioned? Nobody would have ever heard of Fred Hammond had it not been for the work that he and Commissioned did. Amazing oversight!

  • @AwakeningFaith I was listening to him on the radio a while back. He mentioned Commissioned, and there was no ill will against him and the group. He mentioned on how the Lord called him out because He had another assignment for him. Everything there is a season. That song Running Back to You was with Commissioned. God is not a stagnant God. He's always calling you to grow.

  • My dude! Fred's is truly our modern day David-- Kirk said it well. Black folks are learning to grasp and appreciate the freedom to worship God for who He truly IS!

  • His name is isacc caree

  • Who's the first guy singing?

  • who is that @ 4:40

  • I agree maybe there was something there that we should not know. No harm no foul. The group disbanded under quite a strain financially.

  • I love Men Of Standard Joann Rosario! And of course I LOVE Fred!!!

  • LOVE IT!!!

  • music that can change ur day, cant believe all the bickering amongst so called christians about technicalities, when theres a world of lost hurting people, which should be our first priority!

  • @pattelec you are right when you say this, but sum people have such a religious mentality that they can cause such a great damage to those who are in their baby steps in Christ, those people must be confronted and stand corrected, and again sorry for the bickering, reaching to the lost souls are always first on my mind.

  • @ tbursee actually i know of great anointed prophets today that have long hair, i know of scottish pastors that preach in their churches with kelts. If a man was to wear a kelt (dress) in our American culture it would not look very masculine . So what Paul's point is that men should look like men in that culture, and woman should look like woman in that culture, we should no go to the extreme i truly disagree with your opinion on Paul's words .

  • I believe Rosario was part of Radical for Christ, so she knows Fred's work extremely well. Incredible singer.

    As for Fred, he's simply the best R&B singer of Christian music of our generation. He can write, produce, sing, play, you name it. I just thank God for him. His music has carried me through so much I just wouldn't know where to begin.

    Anointed, used of God, battle tested and accomplished. Love you Fred! Keep going bro. Your reward in heaven will be amazing!! Here on earth too. :-)

  • Ok can we jus take min. to give it up for joann rosario i mean for a spanish chick she did her thing

  • You have a beautiful voice Fred, but my concern is you have left your first love. The bible forbids a man to wear long hair in the book of Corithians , and it also forbids men to partake in things that are becoming of a woman, like ear rings. I've noticed more and more , so called gospel artist and gospel concerts , are starting to look like rock artist and rock concerts. and I know its just to make more money. But the truth never compromises. Go back to God Fred, he'll pay your bills

  • your so old its cultural thing study ur word

  • No its not. Paul asked the question does not NATURE ITSELF ,teach you that it is a SHAME for man to have long hair? It's not cultural , its biblical and common sense.

  • One word: "Context".

    lol not goin against the word, not never, not ever... but Paul clearly didn't see the lion or the peacock... :-\ haha I'm just playin

  • @tbursee tbursee actually i know of great anointed prophets today that have long hair, i know of scottish pastors that preach in their churches with kelts. If a man was to wear a kelt (dress) in our American culture it would not look very masculine . So what Paul's point is that men should look like men in that culture, and woman should look like woman in that culture, we should not go to the extreme i truly disagree with your opinion on Paul's words.

  • @TheApostolicFIRE The bible does not submit to culture. A kelt is effiminate irregardless of the culture. The bible says the gifts are without repentance , so a prophet having long hair can still prophecy , just like Hammond can sing bald or wearing long hair, but God judges all disobedience.

  • @tbursee Im sorry but that was not a good enough answer, many biblical scholars around the world would disagree, i stand by my comments.

  • @TheApostolicFIRE you are entitled to your opinion, but the bible does not back your opinion up.

  • @tbursee Question? In what chapter of Corinthians did you read this in? Another question did Jesus have long or short hair? People are so religious and judgemnetal!!! How about you read Matthew 7!!!!! For people are so easy to judge a man by their outward appearance instaed of looking at their inner man. For GOD looks at the inside and JUDGEMENT of ALL belongs to him. Remember what Jesus said about the mote.

  • @MsTenacious09 Its in 1 Corithians 11:14. No Jesus did not have long hair, male hebrews did not wear their hair long. The bible does not say you cannot judge, what it says is that you cannot judge someone for something that you have not repented of yourself.Judging is just another way of discernment.

  • fred is a true psalmnist. hands down

  • men of standard are some bad, anointed brothers as well. Joann, is a force to be recond with also.

  • I LOVE YOU FRED HAMMOND!!! man I wanna be as big as you 1 day but I have no idea where to start Im only 14 and I wrote 21 songs and remixed 7 worldly songs into gospel songs Im a very beautiful singer I play the piano. I wanna meet you 1 day!!

  • @gellybean25 You shouldn't want to sing gospel to be famous you sing to totally worship and praise God with no intention of being a celebrity...You accept jobs whether they pay 20 dollars or 200 dollars..it's all about bringing people to Christ and you must be anointed to bring people to him...but God bless you and your ministry just remember to have pure intentions!

  • @msr18924 I didnt say wanted to be famous I said I wanted to be as big as him,, if you knew me and my parents they both will tell you I dont sing for money or fame I actually do sing and want to sing to for God and as worship... I am so strong in my worship to God I just want people to know me and be blessed by my voice as people are for Fred Hammond... Its not about fame its about what I can do with my voice

  • @gellybean25 If i offended you im sorry i just know that so many people want it for fame & so many people in the gospel industry aint living the lifestyle..but are you singing on here i would love to hear it! I too want people to hear the glory of what God has done for me through singing so i understand but sometimes i have to bring myself down, when i find myself saying oh i sound good and say not for me but for his glory, because i really want to be used by him and i dont want people to see me

  • @msr18924 as far as my videos I havent uploaded them yet its not really working but I have one on facebook when I was 13 or like a month after I turned 14 but I remix worldly songs into Christian songs the one on facebook is Unfaithful by Rihanna which is my favorite if you add me on facebook I wll be glad to accept My name is Angelica Oakley Im like the only angelica oakley :) and you can check out that video

  • @gellybean25 ok..but in the future dont be interacting with nobody you dont personally know on facebook..just to be safe!

  • @msr18924 oh I know... people try to add me and they dont know me.. but I was fine with you adding me just to see my video but you dont have to.

  • And I am running back to you...

  • I love Fred!!

  • I love Fred Hammond, His music really comes from God! Thank you Jesus!

  • Listen to the last few words of Fred's acceptance. God bless you Fred!!

  • I would love to see CECE WINANS and JOANN ROSARIO do a song together.

  • OMG!!!! thats my dream!!!!!!! OMG OMG!!! i was like omg, thats the sameyear they also did a tribute to the Winans Family!!!

  • Every artist whether started with a group at first and later ventured to the next level, was influenced by someone.

    what's been birthed is the result of the influence. What I mean he was influenced by the winans the songs were heart felt, and from relationship with christ. Even when you listen to Fred they are songs from the word of God, and not based on feelings. He didn't disregard Commission at all. If we are looking to be reckonized by man, then what's our purpose for what we do.

  • C'mon now man. What you wrote is all good and what not, but you know just as well as I do that that man should have mentioned something about his brothers in Commissioned. Im not even just saying this as a die hard fan either. I'd feel the same way about it if Twinkie Clark got up and gave an acceptance speech Thanking everyone EXCEPT the Clark Sisters.

  • The brothers of Commissioned actually ran Fred out the Group. Believe it or not. He spoke extensively about the conflict in a Concert 4 years ago. They told him he would not make it. He spoke of how betrayed he felt.

  • I personally attended the event, and his comments were edited big time. He said so much more that wasn't aired.

  • Ive lost respect for this DUDE how could you not name COMMISIONED are you serious you thanked the winans before you thank commissioned that helped launch this dude man WOW i grew up a hard core commisioned fan and this is messed up man

  • Actually the Winans helped get him started! Fred played bass for them...but like dude said it was edited.

  • why? He said he couldnt thank everybody and what does it matter if he doesnt thank them out loud he could thatnk them in person that doesnt give you the right to now have respect for him. dont make something so small a big deal!!

  • The Winans Are the ones that helped him out with Commissioned. look it up!

  • Fred started out playing Bass for the Winans in the early years after 4yrs in the Army.

  • @jessicalm145 wow, really, I didn't know that!

  • Does any have the song "I anoint myself", by Fred Hammond?  I LOVE this song, but can not find it?

    Thanks.

    Dr. C.

    I dont' know if Joanna Rosario sings on that track or not?

  • yeah i totally missed this!!!! im soooo mad!!! He's awesome!!!!! Thanks for postin!!!!

  • when was this? how did i miss this?

  • a seed needs dirt to grow!! mah man! =D

  • I'm SOO HAPPY Fred has been honoured! He really has a gift of writing song's that have meaning and deep insightful lyric's.

    I'm Fred's number 1 fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • HONORED. Because he did what the Lord told him to do!!!

  • How could his Commissioned roots NOT be mentioned by no one? What an oversight!

  • So true, his Commissioned roots are so important to Fred and to those of us who watched Fred grow. Shame...shame...shame.

  • @veritas93

    I love this video in honoring Fred. He deserve this. He and Marvin Sapp. I love there sincere relationship with God. Praise God.

  • @veritas93 Thank you...........

  • Big ups to Fred, but all I know, is that M.O.S harmony on "No Weapon" brought chills, and the band was on point especially opening up the song "Blessed".

  • Love you Fred, bless you on this day and on all days.

  • Im proud of this amazing Minstrel of God.

    You,ve been a big time blessing, Fred.

    Thx for holding on and moving ahead.

    You will end well and finish strong.

  • Fred Hammond is God gift of inspiration dictated to worship from the heart. Giving All glory to God the father bring heaven down on earth Thur Gospel unified with God Spirit heart Love. God continue to ministry To you Fred and Thur you Love you with the Love of the father. Faith to Faith & Glory to Glory.

  • i love dis dude i was brought up on fred hammond

  • @DJKDiz Is that Genuine at 4:47?

  • geeeeeeeeetttttt eeeeemmmmmm

  • No Commissioned shout out??

  • I know, right?! They wasn't even mentioned in the little recap of Fred's career. It's all good though. Fred's still the man. I liked him better as a Commissioned member, and solo artist. But his choir stuff is ok. He'll always be an inspiration to me.

  • Fred is the best. Awesome psalmist, truly touched by the Hand of God. He is my all time favorite and his music has helped to encourage me (and I know many others) through many trials and tribulations and for that I thank God for Fred! Kirk is absolutely right when he said Fred is like our David! Composing songs that speak to the glory of God exclusively! One of a kind is Mr. Hammond! He truly is most notable and very deserving of this award!

  • Did any one else notice the Living just enough for the city ending

  • LUV LUV Luv This Thanks for Posting!!!

  • A long time coming for one of the greatest of all time the man has had in his hands in some of the most soul stirring music ever he's one of my hero's

  • Não Entendi Muita coisa mas Esses caras são muito Bons !

    Fred Hammond Me Mostrou um Novo Jeito de Louvar.

    Cada Harmonia Mostra Perfeitamente Um Jeito Alegre de Adorar A Deus !

    Thank you For This Video.
