ABOUT Trend-setting, Billboard chart-topping singer and songwriter William Becton is an artist who has garnered iconic status in Gospel music. As one of the first gospel artists to take inspirational lyrics and merge them with urban sounds, Becton’s songwriting prowess proved to be a ground-breaking and bold creative innovation that propelled him to prominence.
He began his musical journey in 1995 with his critically acclaimed debut album BROKEN (Intersound Records). The album peaked at #1 on the Billboard Top Gospel Albums Chart and boasted the Gospel radio block-buster single and R&B Top 40 Radio cross-over hit “Be Encouraged”.
“When I wrote ‘Be Encouraged’, I saw the need for inspiration, the need for encouragement, the need for hope,” says Becton.
