- Urban contemporary gospel (sometimes marketed as "black gospel") is music that is written to express either personal or a communal belief regarding Christian life, as well as (in terms of the varying music styles) to give a Christian alternative to mainstream secular music. Urban contemporary gospel is a form of Christian music and a subgenre of gospel music. Like other forms of music the creation, performance, significance, and even the definition of urban contemporary gospel varies according to culture and social context. It is composed and performed for many purposes, ranging from aesthetic pleasure, religious or ceremonial purposes, or as an entertainment product for the marketplace. However, a common theme as with most Christian music is praise, worship or thanks to God and/or Christ.
