This is Jerry Smith performing The Professor.
Jerry Smith, a native of Jackson, Mississippi, was born on February 12, 1959. He is a multifaceted individual, excelling as a choir director, songwriter, arranger, musician, and minister of music. Smith attended Jackson's Central High School and pursued his passion for music by earning a bachelor's degree in piano performance and a master's degree in music education from Jackson State University.
In 1988, at the age of under 30, Smith received an invitation from Frank Williams to a meeting discussing the creation of a mass choir. Williams, a member of the Jackson Southernaires and the director of Malaco Records' gospel division, envisioned the formation of the Mississippi Mass Choir—a collective that would combine the spirit and energy of a quartet with the strength and volume of many voices. Smith was appointed as the choir's first assistant director, working alongside principal director David Curry Jr.
The Mississippi Mass Choir made an impressive entrance onto the gospel music scene with their self-titled debut album, which was recorded for Malaco in 1988. The album reached the pinnacle of success, topping the Billboard Gospel Albums chart in July 1989. It went on to set a gospel industry record by spending an astounding 45 consecutive weeks on the chart. Recognizing their talent, the album received four Stellar Awards and earned nominations for Dove and Soul Train Awards. The Gospel Music Workshop of America honored the group by naming them the Contemporary Choir of the Year and the Best New Traditional Artist.
