Nashville, Tennessee-based musician Derek Webb expected the attacks from conservative Christians about his new Gospel album. But he didn't anticipate how the protest against those attacks would propel a singing-songwriting drag queen to the top of the Christian music charts.
Webb, a former Contemporary Christian music star, just released his new album, “The Jesus Hypothesis,” and as part of that, collaborated with drag musician Flamy Grant for a song and music video.
