Richie Stephens

After working under Motown Records and spending time as a singer for Soul II Soul in the early '90s, Richie Stephens turned his career toward reggae, ska, and contemporary gospel once on his own again. Spending most of the late '90s and into the next century working on this new direction, his 2002 album The Man Upstairs signaled the arrival of a unique new voice in Christian music. ~ Bradley Torreano
