Part 2/9:

The origins of "Taking It to the Streets" trace back to the intimate setting of club gigs, a place where the artist often found creative energy. As he drove to a performance, a gospel-inspired intro began to take shape in his mind. Although he was unsure of its potential initially, the moment he reached a piano and started working out the chords, the song began to form. The motivation was clear: he envisioned something powerful to be executed with a gospel approach, complete with a choir and rhythmic foundation.
