“I couldn’t be more excited to welcome Alexxander to the team. His talent, passion, and heart for the Kingdom bring something fresh and dynamic to the culture. Latin music is shaping the sound of the world, and Alexxander is poised to make a massive impact,” shares Lecrae.

Music runs deep in Alexxander’s lineage, inspired by the legacy of his grandfather and his father, Luis Santiago, a respected figure in Latin gospel music. Now, with more than 100 compositions, he continues to forge his own path and makes history as the first Spanish-speaking artist on the Reach Records roster.

“Tres Deseos is a reminder that no matter how much we become distracted by the world around us, there’s always a deeper, more meaningful path to take,” says Alexxander when asked about the impact behind the single.

ABOUT ALEXXANDER

Hailing from Bayamón, Puerto Rico, Alexxander is a groundbreaking artist redefining the boundaries of Latin gospel music. As the son of legendary Latin gospel superstar Luis Santiago, Alexxander spent his childhood immersed in music, often spending late nights in the studio, watching his father fine-tune lyrics. This early exposure ignited his passion for storytelling and lyrical precision, nurturing a deep love for creating music that inspires and uplifts. Blending the raw energy of punk rock with the infectious rhythms of reggaeton, Alexxander’s sound is a bold fusion of genres, underpinned by a message of hope and faith.

Alexxander is a new voice in faith-based music—one that bridges cultures, genres, and languages while staying rooted in a message of hope.

2819 WORSHIP DEBUTS AT #33 BILLBOARD’S HOT CHRISTIAN SONGS CHART WITH BREAKOUT SINGLE “FOR CHRIST ALONE”

Atlanta-based collective 2819 Worship makes a powerful entrance, landing at #33 Billboard’s Hot Christian Songs chart with their debut single, “For Christ Alone”, a live worship moment already resonating globally.

In its first week, the track has generated over 876K global streams, alongside more than 1,800 social creates and 240K official video views; an early indication of strong audience demand and engagement to not only the song but the truth that it declares.

“For Christ Alone” captures the depth and intensity of a live worship experience rooted in Scripture: Matthew 24:30, a sermon that founder and lead pastor Philip Anthony Mitchell spoke on for several months, that describes the Second coming of Jesus, while also drawing from Colossians 1:18, declaring Jesus Christ is the head of the body, which is the church, and the “firstborn from the dead” a title of authority and victory in resurrection, not creation. Together, these truths anchor the song’s message: Christ alone stands for us and leads the way for us, and in the end, there will be no more arguments about who was telling the truth.

“All the glory belongs to God alone,” shares the collective 2819 Worship. “We are deeply humbled by how the Spirit is moving through this sound and are truly in awe that people are being moved by a song drawn directly from Scripture. The reach of this song isn’t about the music alone, but about hearts responding to the Word of God.”

Beyond the numbers, the song is driving a wave of organic and authentic engagement across social platforms. Listeners are sharing videos of the track on repeat during workouts, long drives, and quiet moments of reflection, with some saying it’s “Summer Anthem” and “it’s on my top shelf!! In repeat rotation.” The 13-minute track is creating an experience within itself, with fans leaning into the full-length moment as a space for uninterrupted worship.

2819 Worship signed with Reach Records earlier this year. Now, with early momentum and a growing digital footprint, 2819 Worship is quickly emerging as a collective to watch within the worship space.

Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter, DOE, drops an energetic and powerful new worship anthem, “Know Your Name,” available now on all streaming platforms. Known for seamlessly bridging R&B, gospel, and contemporary Christian music, DOE delivers a deeply personal and generational declaration of faith with her latest single.

Produced by Kyle Lee and written by DOE alongside David Spencer, Anthony S. Brown, and Dia Viola, “Know Your Name” carries the energy of a live worship moment, capturing collective praise.

“‘Know Your Name’ was inspired by the word ‘posterity’ found in Psalm 22:27–30,” shares DOE. “I have such great respect for the generations before me who taught me how to call on the name of the Lord, and for the generations coming after me who need to know His name too. He has a name for every season of life. This song is both my prayer and my declaration that every generation will know His name.”

Born Dominique Jones, DOE has emerged as one of the most compelling voices in contemporary Christian and gospel music. Her recent single “Black Boy,” featuring Jon Batiste, underscored this mission, offering a timely and affirming message that celebrates identity, dignity, and hope for young black men. This same intentionality carries into “Know Your Name,” where personal testimony meets universal truth.

Her 2025 album Heart Of A Human, which she penned in its entirety, earned the GRAMMY® Award for Best Contemporary Christian Music Album, further solidifying her place as a leading voice in the space.

With eight GRAMMY® nominations, two GMA Dove Awards, and collaborations alongside artists such as Lecrae, Maverick City Music, and Tauren Wells, DOE continues to expand her impact. Her musical roots run deep; raised in a family of artists, she began performing professionally as a teenager with the acclaimed group Forever JONES before launching her solo career in 2019.
