NASHVILLE, TENN. (JANUARY 29, 2021) - GRAMMY-Award winning and multi-RIAA Platinum-selling group Casting Crowns have partnered with chart-topping hip-hop artist KB to create an anthem-like version of the group's single, "Start Right Here." The creative take on the song is available today here.
 
“I feel united with Casting Crowns as co-conspirators for the Gospel," shares KB. "It was an honor to be invited to contribute to this powerful appeal to the Church’s greatest purpose - reflecting the glory of God over all things!”
 
The song can be originally heard on the group's hit 2018 album, Only Jesus. The album version is the current radio single and is already a Top 10 single and has more than 11.5 million streams to date. The lyrics are impactful and this new version showcases the message in a new light.
 
“I have been a KB fan for years," says Mark Hall frontman of Casting Crowns. "He loves Jesus, he loves people, and he loves God‘s word. It’s an honor to join with him and speak the truth in love to the church. Change that lasts has to start with God’s people!”
