Xscape star LaTocha Scott is setting sail on a new musical journey – as a Gospel artist.

And she’s teamed up with one of the genre’s most potent platforms to propagate her music and message.

Full story below…

In an announcement made moments ago, it was shared that the ‘Who Can I Run To’ belter has inked an exclusive license agreement with Motown Gospel via her own label, Made Girl Music.

The pact serves as a full circle moment after humble beginnings singing at Mt. Olive Church of God in Holiness, in her hometown of College Park, GA.

Scott, who is readying her debut Gospel album for release later this year, said in a statement:

“It has always been a passion of mine to do inspirational music. It has been my foundation, and that is very evident, even when I sing R&B music. I can’t escape that.”

Monica Coates, Co-Executive Director, Motown Gospel added:

“A hallmark of LaTocha’s successful career has been her love for gospel music and her strong personal connection to the Black church. I am excited for her fans—long-standing and new—to finally have a body of work that reflects those areas of her passion.”

EJ Gaines, Co-Executive Director of Motown Gospel concluded:

“LaTocha has one of the most recognized voices in R&B, but she also has staying power and manages to maintain relevance in a marketplace that doesn’t always allow for that. I can’t wait for her fans to hear what she’s been working on.”

Scott, who recently won the Lady of Soul honor with Xscape, can also be seen on her group’s forthcoming reality show on Bravo later this year.
