VICKIE WINANS LAUNCHES RECORD LABEL: Veteran gospel artist departs from
long-time label Verity Records.

Grammy nominated gospel music singer Vickie Winans' new
Detroit-based Destiny Joy Records label has signed an exclusive
distribution deal with Central South Distribution in Nashville.

The charismatic singer who asked for and was recently released
from a long-term recording agreement with Verity Records, is now free to
chart her own career path on her own terms.

"I am sooo excited about my new distribution deal with Central
South," says Winans. "It is a mega deal and I am ecstatic. Destiny Joy
Records is on its way now!"

"Vickie Winans is a premiere artist who we are thrilled to partner
with," says Terry Woods, Central South's Director of Distribution. "Her
creativity and knowledge of the industry will continue to place her as a
trailblazer and pioneer for many of today's artists." Among the releases
that Winans will be releasing over the next year will include the DVDs
"Laugh While You Lose" fitness video, a stand-up comedy video, Winans'
20th Anniversary Video, and the "Classic Gold Video Collection" which
features 17 videos ranging from her current hits such as "The Rainbow"
and "It's Alright" to her 1991 duet of "Just When" with Marvin Winans.
This fall, Winans will also release her first ever Christmas CD. In
the near future, Winans will also release CD projects by the two artists
signed to her label, veteran gospel artist Denise Tichenor and newcomer,
Datisha Pickett.

The new label's name is very personal to Winans. "Right after I
had my son, Coconut (Marvin Winans Jr.), I got pregnant with a little
girl," she recalls. "We were planning to name her Destiny Joy Winans.
Unfortunately, However, I miscarried during my fifth month and lost my
baby who only weighed one pound. I named that baby Marvlyn Loreal Winans
after her father Marvin Lawrence Winans Sr. and kept the name Destiny
Joy alive - not knowing one day that I would start this label and name
it after her. My son Mario Winans' beautiful daughter is also named
Skyler Destiny Joy."

Winans is one of the best-known artists in gospel music with
signature songs such as "Shake Yourself Loose," "As Long As I Got King
Jesus" and "We Shall Behold Him" to her credit. Her latest CD "Bringing
It All Together" spent nine weeks at #1 on the Billboard gospel album
sales chart in 2003 and a full year in the Top Ten. The CD also won a
Grammy nomination and five Stellar Awards. Winans has been profiled in
Ebony magazine, USA Today and the Associated Press. Her profile on BET's
Sunday morning TV series "Lift Every Voice" remains the most watched
episode in that program's history with over 800,000 viewers.
