London's Lateefah getting airplay in the US

THE SINGLE "Here I Am" by London-based R&B gospel singer Lateefah has hit America's Top 50 National Airplay Gospel Chart monitored by Digital Radio Tracker. Said Lateefah, "Although I have always been gifted with a talent for music, I struggled with low self-esteem. Even though my parents encouraged me to get on stage, there were experiences in my life that made me doubt myself. But my faith helped me. The difference between being born again and not being born again is how you deal with situations. As a Christian, I have my faith in God. That has changed me forever. Now when people see me on stage, they can't believe I was ever fearful of the stage."
