Grammy-winning artist Mandisa Lynn Hundley, who was known professionally as Mandisa and who inspired millions with upbeat, positive songs such as Overcomer and Stronger, died Thursday at the age of 47. A cause of death has not been released as of this writing.
Mandisa’s vibrant personality and powerful voice helped her finish in the Top 9 of 2006’s American Idol, after which she found a home in contemporary Christian music. Her first album, True Beauty, soared to No. 1 on the Billboard Christian album charts, as did her last two albums, Overcomer and Out of the Dark.
