Controversy and Criticism
Although the Campbell sisters have been in the urban Gospel industry for years, they have been criticized for their "worldly" sound, most notably in the song "God in Me", and allegations that the song promotes "prosperity gospel". The controversy grew when they worked with T-Pain for "God in Me". Since then, the sister duo has said in interviews that they would like to work with more secular artists.

Famous quotes containing the words controversy and/or criticism:
“And therefore, as when there is a controversy in an account, the parties must by their own accord, set up for right Reason, the Reason of some Arbitrator, or Judge, to whose sentence, they will both stand, or their controversy must either come to blows, or be undecided, for want of a right Reason constituted by Nature; so is it also in all debates of what kind soever.”
—Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
“The critic lives at second hand. He writes about. The poem, the novel, or the play must be given to him; criticism exists by the grace of other men’s genius. By virtue of style, criticism can itself become literature. But usually this occurs only when the writer is acting as critic of his own work or as outrider to his own poetics, when the criticism of Coleridge is work in progress or that of T.S. Eliot propaganda.”
—George Steiner (b. 1929)
