[3] In 1992, God's Property Choir was organized and founded by Linda Ray Hall-Searight (a public school music teacher) in Dallas, Texas.
Linda Searight groomed the choir into an exceptional performing organization, that was often featured on national television shows in the mid and late 1990s.
The choir has performed with Celine Dion at the encore of the "Call The Man/Power of the Dream" concert in Dallas, and on The 10th Annual Essence Awards in 1997 with Stevie Wonder.
The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles superior court, alleges that Franklin's parent label executives Vickie Mack induced God's Property founder Linda Searight into signing an "onerous and one-sided" contract with B-Rite Music.
[11] The album, driven by the radio hit "Stomp",[12] sold at least 2.7 million copies and was on the Billboard's gospel chart for at least 71 weeks.
