Billboard-charting gospel artist and national recovery advocate Robert Hawkins announces a historic milestone in his mission to bring hope and healing to underserved communities. His "Gratitude" Official Music Video, performed with The Recovery Gathering Band, will stream on over one million inmate tablets across 47 states and 1,421 prisons and jails through The Edge Podcast and Kingdom Minded Podcast on the Edovo Learning App–two of the nation's largest platforms delivering faith-based and recovery-focused content to incarcerated individuals.
This extraordinary reach ensures that Hawkins' message of gratitude, healing, and purpose is delivered directly behind correctional facility walls, offering spiritual encouragement to men and women navigating some of the most challenging seasons of their lives.
This achievement comes during a year of significant momentum for Hawkins.
Earlier in 2025, he charted #10 nationwide on the Pando App, further solidifying his influence as a powerful voice in both the worship and recovery communities. "Gratitude" is a featured single on his most recent 6-song EP, The Recovery Journey, released through his new partnership and distributed-label home, NRT Music. His music continues to bridge worship, transparency, and transformation--resonating deeply with individuals seeking freedom and restoration.
Through his nonprofit, The Recovery Gathering, Hawkins leads free recovery-centered concerts around the country, connecting individuals and families to vital mental health and substance use resources. With over ten years in recovery and a testimony of surviving multiple overdoses, Hawkins brings authenticity, compassion, and lived experience to every platform he touches.
"To know that 'Gratitude' will reach people behind the walls in 47 states is a blessing," says Hawkins. "This is about letting them know they are still seen, still valued, and their story still has purpose."
