Following the success of "Shackles," Mary Mary continued to produce solid and uplifting gospel songs. Albums "Mary Mary, Incredible" and "Mary Mary: Thankful" have won the sisters Dove, Grammy and Stellar Awards. Their most recent project, 2009's "The Sound," produced the chart-topping megabits "Get Up" and "God In Me."

When it comes to our music, our music is for everyone, Everyone needs to know that God loves them."

"[Tina] isn't a television person. Sometimes when we meet famous people, I'll be like 'Oh my goodness, there's so and so' and Tina will ask who is that? She has no clue."
