Kirk Franklin stopped by HOT 97 to talk to Nessa about his new album “I Am What I Am,” out Friday! He opened up about his collaboration with GloRilla, the criticism she’s received from the Christian community, and what she privately told him about the backlash. He also discussed the controversy surrounding his past collaborations, why he apologized to Salt over “Stomp,” and his reaction to Druski’s viral church skit. Kirk also shared a surprising story about Kanye West visiting his home and offering him beats without taking credit.
Kirk also got personal about his relationship with his son, reflecting on their public fallout, where things stand today, and his thoughts on gentle parenting. He discussed how Jelly Roll’s time in prison played a role in their collaboration, working with Tyler Perry on his upcoming Netflix movie, and whether he’s ever had to censor an artist in the studio. He also opened up about growing up without his parents’ love, what he would tell his younger self, and the biggest misconceptions about his faith.
