Talk:British black gospel

Disputed
I have doubts that "British black gospel" is a recognized musical genre separate from urban contemporary gospel. The fact that a British music award (the MOBO Awards) has chosen to recognize British musicians performing in the urban contemporary gospel genre does not mean that the British production of this music forms a separate genre. I would recommend that this article be deleted under WP:CSD, and any meaningful content be included at urban contemporary gospel. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 15:45, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

Confirmation
British black gospel is in fact a seperate genre to Urban contemporary gospel as referenced by British Black Gospel: Foundations of this vibrant UK sound by Steve Alexander Smith. The origins and style of the music are unique and has its own history in the united kingdom quite seperate to its American counterpart and its own chart Official Christian & Gospel Albums Chart. This is exepmplified by the London Community Gospel Choir who have been unsung stalwarts of this genre for many decades — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dawilliam 72 (talk • contribs) 11:25, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
 * I would argue that the presence of a genre of music in a country does not necessarily make for a unique new genre, or that the publication of a single book does not define a genre, but I'm not feeling particularly argumentative this morning.
