Launching today from the Idol franchise is the latest LP by Season 5's ninth-place finalist, Mandisa. The gospel singer releases Freedom, her sophomore album, just a few weeks before the 2009 Dove Awards, for which Mandisa is a nominee in the Female Vocalist of the Year category.
The album features the Top 20 Contemporary Christian single "My Deliverer," which is currently sitting at #16 on the chart. Links to purchase the aforementioned can be found below:

Out today: Mandisa's 'Freedom'

IDOL LIVE predix: Mandisa's 'Freedom'
The only major Idol-related album release this week is Mandisa's Freedom, which bows tomorrow. The album will not be a major contender for the #1 spot on the Billboard 200, but it should have little trouble debuting at #1 on the Christian charts.
Last time around, Mandisa's True Beauty opened to a little more than 17k, also coming in at #1 on Billboard's Christian chart. This time around, she should expect something a little below that because her lead single is not as strong as it was when "Only the World" was tearing up the charts. Even though she has developed a strong following with her collaborations with other artists such as tobyMac and her inspirational story of weight loss, Freedom will debut with about 15k in its first week, but should see steady legs over the course of its lifespan.

Track review: Mandisa's "My Deliverer"
Christian songstress Mandisa already has a hit album and a few successful singles under her belt, but that does not mean she can't keep them coming. The fifth season of 'Idol''s ninth-place finalist gives audiences "My Deliverer," an upbeat song of praise that will be the lead-off single from her upcoming album ‘Freedom’ (March 24).
In “My Deliverer,” Mandisa tells the story of how she was saved when she needed help. The instrumentation is definitely more rock-oriented, which is a bit of a change for Mandisa, but her vocals go astoundingly well. The song could easily succeed on the charts as it sounds current. Regarding her vocals, she does not overreach anywhere and sounds very comfortable.
Although it will be tough to match the success of her previous single "Only the World" and album 'True Beauty,' Mandisa seems poised to make things work with the material she is pursuing. "My Deliverer" will be more than just a blip on the chart.
Purchase on iTunes & Amazon MP3
