Let Gospel Ring!"

"Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep."
Angel Gabriel hires a young angel named Ariel to waitress in his rib joint. A disagreement on the type of music that should be played for the customers leads to Gabriel teaching Ariel about the history of black Gospel music in America through song.
By the end of the show, even Gabriel learns a little about modern-day-hip-hop like gospel music.
