It’s no question that songwriting legend James Fortune can make a hit gospel record, having earned over a dozen No. 1 hits over the span of his 15-year music career.  The producer’s ability to understand that delivery means everything is probably why he’s been so successful in the genre with singles like “Hold On” and “I Trust You.”
