(DALLAS) February 21, 2025 -- Tamela Mann and TillyMann Music win two NAACP Image Awards including Outstanding Gospel/Christian Album for Live Breathe Fight and Outstanding Gospel/Christian Song for her chart-topping hit “Working For Me.” The category sweep was announced during the Image Awards virtual ceremony.
“I’m truly humbled and honored to be recognized by the NAACP for Live Breathe Fight and ‘Working For Me,’” said Tamela. “I’m grateful to God for allowing me to have this opportunity, and I’m thankful to the Image Awards for giving this music a platform to reach people.”
Produced by Tamela, David Mann, Phillip Bryant, and Jevon Hill, Live Breathe Fight is a collection of many of the most compelling and deeply vulnerable songs of her decorated career. Penned by Tamela, Bryant and Tameka Mintze aka “Tia Sharee,” the debut single “Working for Me” dominated gospel radio as her fastest climbing single to date and earned Tamela a place in Billboard history with her 11th No. 1 hit, more than any other gospel artist.
