The eOne television productionMary Mary has been a great hit on WE tv, and at eOne Music, we continue to drive forward producing some of the nation’s preeminent voices today. I have long held and have the highest respect for Warryn Campbell and his immeasurable talents personally and professionally. Our shared commitment to music that captivates listeners, inspires their spirits and encourages their faith was a natural fit with us at eOne, and it’s a blessing to create this strategic partnership to release new Gospel and R&B work with My Block.”

Working across multiple genres with My Block, it’s important to have a clear vision and the resources for artists to be successful across multiple platforms today. In this strategic partnership with eOne Music, we share a similar vision in supporting Gospel’s great history and taking it to another level as well as other genres, to serve both emerging and established artists in creating innovative work that paves the way now and for the future. Let’s go.”

Winans, Sr. has wed his long time girlfriend Deneen R. Carter. Carter is a 57-year-old physical therapist and minister at Perfecting Church in Detroit, founded by Winans. Little is known about the bride publicly. The gospel legend introduced the now Mrs. Winans as his fiance to the congregants of Perfecting in October of 2021. The couple had been in a relationship for 15 years. Pastor Winans was previously married to fellow gospel singer Vicki Winans (with whom he has two sons) for 16 years before they divorced in 1995.
