Word Records To Release
‘Best Of’ Trio
Separate projects celebrate hits, favorites of Jaci Velasquez, Rachael Lampa, Nicole Mullen

Despite a decade’s worth of top-selling albums and chart-topping hits, there has yet to be a best-of collection from Jaci Velasquez until now. On My Knees: The Best of Jaci Velasquez is a 17-song career retrospective spotlighting songs from the Platinum-selling debut, Heavenly Place, which established her as one of the fastest selling solo debut recording artists in the Christian genre, to the most recent applauded project, Beauty Has Grace. With over three million career album sales, Velasquez’ successful music career is further emphasized by seven Dove Awards, a Billboard/Latin Billboard Award and multiple Grammy, Latin Grammy and American Music Award nominations.

Redeemer: The Best of Nicole C. Mullen includes 17 songs from 2000’s self-titled debut through 2004’s Everyday People, in addition to the 2006 End of the Spear soundtrack. Beginning with her “Song of the Year” Dove Award in 1998 as the writer for “On My Knees,” Mullen released her Word debut and quickly became a fan-favorite with her 2001 No. 1 single and “Song of the Year” Dove Award winning “Redeemer.” She has collected eight Dove Awards thus far, including “Female Vocalist of the Year” in 2002 and 2005, and received a “Pop/Contemporary Album of the Year” Grammy nod in 2003 for Talk About It.

Blessed: The Best of Rachael Lampais a 17-song collection featuring songs from each of Lampa’s hit albums: Live For You, Kaleidoscope, Blur and self-titled, fourth studio project. The Dove Award winning artist instantly hit the spotlight in 2000 when, at only 15 years of age, launched her debut, Live For You, by performing on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.” That same year she was nominated for "Best Young Recording Artist or Musical Group" at The Hollywood Reporter's Fifth Annual “Young Star Awards,” along with fellow nominees Mandy Moore, Charlotte Church and Billy Gilman. Lampa has further been featured before millions of fans through such outlets as CBS’ broadcast of the 2000 Miss Teen USA Pageant, at Pope John Paul II’s 2001 “World Youth Day” in Rome and at Billy Graham and Franklin Graham Crusades throughout the U.S.
