MAVERICK CITY MUSIC Holy
Other highlights include“ Glory, Glory” featuring Crowder, an energetic collaboration overflowing with joy and gratitude, and“ So Good,” a bright reminder of God’ s constant goodness that showcases the band’ s signature blend of folk, rock, and gospel influences.“ Love Is Louder” closes the gap between worship and testimony, offering an encouraging reminder that God’ s love speaks louder than fear, shame, or failure.
Musically, We The Kingdom continues to carve out a unique space within CCM. Acoustic guitars, driving rhythms, rich family harmonies, and roots-inspired production give these songs warmth and authenticity without sacrificing accessibility. The EP feels polished but never overproduced, allowing the lyrics and heartfelt performances to remain front and center.
Lyrically, Everything I Thought Was Pleasure explores themes of redemption, surrender, hope, and God’ s transforming grace. Rather than dwelling on past failures, these songs consistently point listeners toward the freedom and joy that come from walking with Christ. The result is a project that feels both deeply personal and universally relatable.
While brief, Everything I Thought Was Pleasure is a satisfying collection that reminds listeners why We The Kingdom has become one of Christian music’ s most beloved bands. Honest songwriting, memorable melodies, and a clear focus on the life-changing power of the gospel make this EP another strong addition to the group’ s growing catalog.

Since emerging from Atlanta in 2018, Maverick City Music has become one of the most influential voices in modern worship music. Founded to elevate diverse worship leaders and create authentic, Spirit-led songs, the collective has earned multiple Grammy Award and GMA Dove Award honors while producing worship anthems that have found homes in churches around the world. Their latest release, Holy, continues that legacy with a collection of songs centered on God’ s holiness, faithfulness, and love.
The album opens beautifully with the title track,“ Holy,” an intimate worship ballad featuring Grace Idowu and Dante Bowe. Supported by gentle piano, ambient pads, and subtle electric guitar, the song reflects on how Christ’ s death and resurrection restored our relationship with God. It’ s a reverent beginning that immediately
establishes the album’ s worshipful heart.
One of the record’ s standout moments is“ Constant,” led by former American Idol winner Jordin Sparks. The song celebrates God’ s unchanging faithfulness, reminding listeners that even when our strength fails, His never does. Likewise,“ All That I Need” showcases Dante Bowe’ s soulful R & B-influenced vocals in a heartfelt declaration that Jesus is more than enough for every season of life. The upbeat“ Lift Me Up” provides an energetic reminder of God’ s faithfulness during life’ s most difficult moments, offering one of the album’ s most joyful expressions of praise.
Musically, Holy blends contemporary worship with gospel, soul, and R & B influences while maintaining Maverick City’ s trademark authenticity. Outstanding vocals, thoughtful arrangements, and lyrics rooted in biblical truth make this another strong addition to the group’ s growing catalog.
Holy doesn’ t rely on flashy production or musical novelty. Instead, Maverick City Music delivers exactly what they have become known for: Christ-centered worship that encourages believers to fix their eyes on God’ s character and respond with lives that glorify His name. It’ s another excellent release from a collective that continues to shape the sound of contemporary worship around the world.
