Brooklyn, NY (July 25) – The CCC Collective, a trailblazing group of artists from the Christian Cultural Center (CCC) in Brooklyn, New York, is back with their new single, “Thankful,” now available on all major streaming platforms. The track arrives on the heels of their widely celebrated releases “Devil is a Lie” and "Can You Hear Me," two raw, spiritual anthems that fuse Southern blues, country gospel, and powerful, soulful vocals.
“Thankful” is a deeply moving celebration of faith, resilience, and gratitude in the face of life’s greatest challenges. With this release, the CCC Collective continues to evolve their sound, offering a powerful anthem that reflects their ongoing commitment to empowerment and worship. The single also serves as a preview of their upcoming album, Brooklyn Culture, set for release on August 15, 2025.
“Thankful” follows the success of “Devil is a Lie,” which blends swampy blues riffs with gospel vocals in a raw declaration of spiritual authority and victory. The song’s live performance captured in the studio amplified the track's bold message, quickly turning it into a fan favorite.
“We’ve always wanted our music to speak to both the spirit and the culture,” says A.R. Bernard, one of the leading voices of the CCC Collective. “‘Devil is a Lie’ was a declaration of overcoming darkness, while ‘Thankful’ is a declaration of victory. It’s about finding gratitude in every moment, no matter what we face. Both songs are about spiritual empowerment, but they speak to different parts of that journey.”
But before “Devil is a Lie,” the Collective debuted with their soulful track, “Can You Hear Me.” The song, with the poignant lyric “Through the highs and lows, I know the Lord is close,” resonated deeply with listeners, expressing faith and trust amid life’s challenges. “Can You Hear Me” set the stage for the Collective's growing influence and established their unique sound as a fusion of contemporary worship with rich, soulful melodies that blend seamlessly with their faith-based messages.
The upcoming album, Brooklyn Culture, is a bold exploration of the Collective's unique blend of faith, culture, and musical influences. Drawing inspiration from the heart of Brooklyn, the album showcases a mix of contemporary worship and cultural expression.
With its roots firmly planted in the rich history of the Christian Cultural Center, the CCC Collective continues to break new ground with each release. Their debut single “Breaking News” and subsequent tracks like “Can You Hear Me,”“Devil is a Lie,” and “Thankful” have touched lives across the globe, spreading messages of hope, unity, and faith in powerful ways.
