Kirk Franklin - I Am What I Am (Expanded Version) (2026) Hi Res

Kirk Franklin expands his acclaimed double album with I Am What I Am (Expanded Version), adding two bonus tracks to the original 14-song project. The core release remains a bold two-part statement: seven studio cuts featuring unlikely collaborators like Jelly Roll, GloRilla, Davido, and Tobe Nwigwe, paired with seven live recordings captured in a church with a full choir and band. The expanded edition adds "This Time (Remix)" with Belly Gang Kushington and "This Time (We Gone Be)," bringing the total to 16 tracks and over 73 minutes. It's Franklin at his most radically honest—bridging generations, genres, and the sacred and secular with the ease of an artist thirty-plus years into his career.
