Since January, Kanye West has been conducting his own Sunday service, more precisely, a musical show stylized as a church ministry. Celebrities often come to the “mass”, and the choir performs hits of both Kanye himself and other popular artists. Last weekend, a cover prayer for the song Gwen Stephanie Don’t Speak, with the words “Lord Speak” (God says), became a kind of prayer. After listening to it performed by the choir, the singer could not hold back her tears.
“My heart is overwhelmed with emotions after I heard the incredible performance of Speech. I’m shocked that this song has become a worship song in Kanye’s Sunday service, ”wrote Stephanie on Twitter. She thanked the rapper and his wife Kim Kardashian and asked to send her the full version of the video. In response, Kim sent Gwen three Emoji – a heart, a smile with a halo and hands folded in prayer.

We add that the ballad Don’t Speak, in which Gwen Stefani sings about parting with her boyfriend, No Doubt bassist Tony Kanal, is still very popular with music lovers around the world. The hit, released at the end of 1996, lasted 16 weeks on the first line in the Billboard charts and claimed the Grammy in the nominations The Best Performance of a Pop Group and Song of the Year.
