One of Douglas' strengths is lyrical content, and as you listen closely - will hear a life lesson or two - well placed and well sung.

~ Truly.... Music with meaning and a message ~
*
*
Douglas L. Hills' style is... easy yet jazzy - stretching from Contemporary Christian, to Hip-Hop/R&B influences and (again) jazz with thoughtful, catchy, and colorful lyrical content. Checkout his hit singles:
"I'LL BLESS THEE" - also -
"I FEEL IT NOW" - and -
"KEPT AN EYE"
*
These singles are dynamically different, yet genuine & poignant; driving home a strong message of faith in God.
The artist is quoted as saying,
"I'm God-raised and don't know where I'd be without my Father to guide me! I always pray He just keeps His hand on me - as I hold fast to Him!"
*
Shortly after the cd's release, Douglas also contributed to and participated in the Sarasota, FL (2004 'Gospel Awards' fighting Cancer) - not even a year after losing his own mother to Cancer. Again, sharing his faith & trust in God!

He is certainly a dynamic personality and an unstoppable talent! You have to see him, as well as hear him; a true hidden treasure!!

Using his own words, Douglas desires to
"...take his gifts to the four comers of the earth so that every person can be touched with the 'good news' of ~Jesus Christ~ and great Kingdom music".
